The non test code looks good to me:

Not totally sure about the test approach:

  48     @Test(dataProvider = "data")
  49     public void testClass(Class<?> c, String method) throws Exception {
  50         if (c.getTypeParameters().length == 0)
  51             return;

  60     @Test(dataProvider = "data")
  61     public void testMethod(Class<?>c, String method) throws Exception {
  62         if ("".equals(method))
  63             return;

That's gonna produce redundant results in test reports for stuff that is filtered out by the test method. 

Perhaps split the data provider into two, one for classes and one for methods, and replace the if statements with asserts?
