Mockito VS MockServer

Mockito 5 Released (1 min)🎉 https://github.com/mockito/mockito/releases/tag/v5.0.0

For those using a "release" testBuildType for integration tests, what does your mocking setup look like? My app is stuck on Mockito 2.23.4, because higher (> 1.8.12) versions of Byte Buddy required beyond that point [do not play nicely with non-debuggable APKs](https://github.com/mockito/mockito/issues/2302). Solutions I've considered so far:

Mockito

The code is pretty self explanatory but here's a quick run down. o.getClass().getDeclaredFields() gets us an array of all the fields. We then have a enhanced for loop that loops over the array. Check if the field is annotated field.isAnnotationPresent(Gucci.class). If it is then we set its modifier to true with field.setAccessible(true);. If we don't do this and the field is private we will get an error. Then we get the binary name of the field, field.getGenericType().getTypeName();, remember its just the package and the class name. Lastly we set the value of the field, field.set(o,dynamicInjection(classLoader,binaryName). With that we have now created a dependency injection annotation with the Junit 5 extension model. Now I am sure you can see the tower of exceptions, which is obviously not ideal. I'm not sure how I want to handle all the exceptions yet. However, I will be digging around the Mockito code base to see if I can find how they handle all their exceptions.

Hi, I've been trying to write parquet files on android for the past couple of days, and have really been struggling to find a solution. My original hypothesis was to just use the java parquet implementation (https://github.com/apache/parquet-mr), but I've since realized that not all java libraries play well with Android. I've gone through essentially dependency hell trying to franken-fit the library into my project, and imported as much as i could before hitting walls such as this one (https://github.com/mockito/mockito/issues/841).

The open-source examples are mockoon, mock-server.com, etc.

I've just found out MockServer and it looks awesome 🤩 so I wanted to check it out repeating the steps of my previous demo WireMock Testing which (as you can expect) uses WireMock, another fantastic tool to mock APIs.

I tend to use MockServer. With MockServer you can define inputs, so you can say that the request should look like this with that URL, etc etc. That way you can verify that the request looks okay.
