I have searched lot of answers in sof & in Apache mailing list, in all of them it was a problem with maven shade plugin, and people were facing during mvn package or mvn install phase. But in my case I am not using maven shade plugin, only the following plugins: maven-scala-plugin, scalatest-maven-plugin. And I'm only facing this problem in the 'test' phase.

Answer 1

Finally found the issue, there is a dependency on the module, which has shade plugin,in that module's pom filtering out as follows solved the issue:

<filters>
                        <filter>
                            <artifact>*:*</artifact>
                            <excludes>
                                <exclude>META-INF/*.SF</exclude>
                                <exclude>META-INF/*.DSA</exclude>
                                <exclude>META-INF/*.RSA</exclude>
                            </excludes>
                        </filter>
                    </filters>
