I thought this was Rorippa palustris in the field, but the seed pods are longer & narrow. I may have to collect a specimen if it can't be ID'd.

What do you think @MichaelMulvaney ?

ID based on plant having yellow flowers, no hairs, stem clasping pinnate leaves with terminal leaflet being thinner and longer than others.
