Static imports should always be used conservatively. However, there a few classes that static imports make for a much more fluent style and is a generally accepted practice:
1) Mockito 2) JUnit Assert 3) Guava Preconditions I have noticed that Flume does not use static imports but nothing is mentioned on the wiki. Are we against static imports in the cases above? Brock -- Apache MRUnit - Unit testing MapReduce - http://incubator.apache.org/mrunit/
