NoSuchMethodError when running with test data and test config

Start at ValidatorTable.scala:33, where createCountSelect is called during quickChecks, and compare the assembled artifact's dependencies with Spark 2.4.4 and Scala 2.11.12. Reproduce the failure using the supplied spark-submit command and local_validators.yaml. Done means the test-data run completes without the NoSuchMethodError.

$ spark-submit --master "local[*]" $(ls -t target/scala-2.11/data-validator-assembly-*.jar | head -n 1) --config local_validators.yaml --jsonReport target/testreport.json --htmlReport target/testreport.html
