Pattern: JUnit - use of style assertion

Issue: -

Description

This rule detects calling JUnit style assertions like assertEquals, assertTrue, assertFalse, assertNull, assertNotNull. Groovy 1.7 ships with a feature called the "power assert", which is an assert statement with better error reporting. This is preferable to the JUnit assertions.
