Description

Class::newInstance is deprecated starting in Java 9 - https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-6850612 - because it may throw undeclared checked exceptions.

The suggested replacement is getDeclaredConstructor().newInstance(), which will wrap the checked exceptions in InvocationException.
