Could not find powermock-api-support-sources.jar during testCompileJava - powermock

Question

While running tests in my project, I am getting the following error. We are unsure why the build is looking for source jar files.

I am using java 11 ,springboot 2.0.5 and junit 5

After a lot of trial and error, we found that this is because one of the powermock libraries is still referring to junit 4, and it added some unwanted dependencies. So, we cleaned up the test dependencies, also avoided the libs that have PowerMockRunner. And that fixed the issue. Please find the latest dependencies.gradle snippet below,
testCompile(group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-test', version: springBootVersion) {
exclude (module: 'junit')
}
testCompile group: 'org.springframework', name: 'spring-test', version: springVersion
testCompile(group: 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-starter-test', version: springBootVersion) {
exclude(module: 'commons-logging')
}
compile 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.22.0'
testCompile group: 'org.junit.jupiter', name: 'junit-jupiter-api', version: '5.3.2'
testCompile group: 'org.junit.jupiter', name: 'junit-jupiter-params', version: '5.3.2'
testRuntimeOnly group: 'org.junit.jupiter', name: 'junit-jupiter-engine', version: '5.3.2'
testCompile group: 'org.mockito', name: 'mockito-core', version: '2.23.4'
