Hi, I've been working on unit testing some of the classes in FOP and I think FOP could benefit from using a mocking framework. The goal is obviously that every class has a complimentary test class to test behaviour and state and mocking a class is a good way to emulate an object. I shan't make this into a lecture on the benefits, I've enclosed a good URL as to some of the benefits, but I wanted to put it to the community for feedback. This would mean including an extra JAR(s) file in the libs/ directory (obviously we'll have to be careful with licenses), but I'm just floating the idea if anyone has any preferred frameworks please do suggest pros/cons.
