ClassCaseException org.slf4j.impl.SimpleLoggerFactory cannot be cast to ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext
A type incompatibility occurred while executing com.cerner.clinicaldev:gatling-plugin:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT:run: org.slf4j.impl.SimpleLoggerFactory cannot be cast to ch.qos.logback.classic.LoggerContext
I am writing a maven mojo that spins up a Jetty implementation and runs Gatling programmatically. I have tried excluding slf4j from the io.gatling:gatling-app:2.2.5 and including in the maven-enforcer-plugin as a banned dependency all no no avail.
I cannot see anywhere else in the dependency tree that includes it;

I have been trying for 3 days to resolve this.
Just to add...this is JDK1.8 and Maven 3.3.9.
Help!?!
EDIT::
If I explicitly instantiate a logger at the head of my mojo class I get the following stack trace:

I had a similar problem within the Play Framework:
The only thing I had to do was to add the Provided to the dependency.
Here my case with SBT:
libraryDependencies += "org.slf4j" % "slf4j-simple" % "1.7.26" % Provided,
