Akira Ajisaka commented on HADOOP-14178: ---------------------------------------- The upgrade will be very big change, so I'd like to split this into some sub-tasks to reduce the cost of review. The first sub-task is to remove the usage of Whitebox, which was removed in Mockito 2.1. I'll add sub-tasks later if needed. > Move Mockito up to version 2.x > ------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-14178 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-14178 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: test > Affects Versions: 2.9.0 > Reporter: Steve Loughran > Assignee: Akira Ajisaka > Priority: Minor > > I don't know when Hadoop picked up Mockito, but it has been frozen at 1.8.5 > since the switch to maven in 2011. > Mockito is now at version 2.1, [with lots of Java 8 > support|https://github.com/mockito/mockito/wiki/What%27s-new-in-Mockito-2]. > That' s not just defining actions as closures, but in supporting Optional > types, mocking methods in interfaces, etc. > It's only used for testing, and, *provided there aren't regressions*, cost of > upgrade is low. The good news: test tools usually come with good test > coverage. The bad: mockito does go deep into java bytecodes. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
