Chris Egerton created KAFKA-14346: ------------------------------------- Summary: Remove static methods from internal Connect APIs for easier testing Key: KAFKA-14346 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-14346 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: KafkaConnect Reporter: Chris Egerton
Our use of static methods for internal APIs such as the [RestClient class|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/9ab140d5419d735baae45aff56ffce7f5622744f/connect/runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/connect/runtime/rest/RestClient.java] and [Plugins::compareAndSwapLoaders|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/9ab140d5419d735baae45aff56ffce7f5622744f/connect/runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/connect/runtime/isolation/Plugins.java#L123-L129] makes testing difficult, especially with the in-progress migration from EasyMock/PowerMock to Mockito. We should remove these static methods and replace them with non-static methods that can be more easily mocked. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
