-------------------------------------
Cool, thanks for picking this up.
Would be interested to hear what approach you want to take.
Spontaneously, I could think of two ways to approach that
- See if there is a way to define a "Spotbugs" rule
- Use the Reflections library to check and enforce that. We use it in a
similar way to make sure that no string construction happens without explicit
charset. See for example here:
https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/9bd491e05120915cbde36d4452e3982fe5d0975f/flink-tests/src/test/java/org/apache/flink/test/manual/CheckForbiddenMethodsUsage.java
> Add a check that '@VisibleForTesting' methods are only used in tests

> Some methods are annotated with {{@VisibleForTesting}}. These methods should
> only be called from tests.
> This is currently not enforced / checked during the build. We should add such
> a check.
