If you’re not using JMock then you’re not doing it right.

[...] Faber, the author of Mockito, has a few things to say on why his tool is well done and conceptually right for unit-testing. I will just focus on a few [...]

This makes testing enjoyable. I can focus on the flow of the system rather than on annoying little odds and ends. Hats off to you.

Awesome! This *exactly* what I was looking for. As I surveyed the other libraries I thought, wow, this seems like a LOT of work compared to just creating manual stubs myself. THEN I found your library and this manifesto. Nice work!

On my last project one of my developers suggested mockito, I was skeptical of learning another mocking framework given the pain I had to learn jMock. But as a good tech lead I listened, used, and now I’m sold on Mockito. It was very easy to create tests that I could follow.

Thank you for creating this gem. The fact that I have used jmock for the last time brings joy to my meager existence. I wish more frameworks were so well-written.

Great job on Mockito. I’ve tried several other mock frameworks out there but have decided to stick with Mockito because I have the easiest time doing what I need to do–test my code.

Last evening I used Mockito for the first time, after a coworker recommended it. I’m sold! I haven’t used other mocking frameworks, so the only comparison I have is against my manually mocked interfaces and classes.

Comparing the dozens (hundreds?) of setup lines, hacks, null method implementations I used to need to mock out legacy system and 3rd party interfaces and services, the 12 lines of Mockito I needed to mock out a set of domain objects and a few services are a joy to behold.

I found four bugs in the two classes I was playing with, and I think that this can be attributed directly to the ease with which I was able to create the test cases in the first place.

Nice job, guys!

I’m now somewhat annoyed with myself for not finding Mockito earlier.

Very impressed. Was just starting a new project and using jmock, and someone mentioned mockito so i thought i’d give it go.

Functionally it appears to do the same thing as other mock libraries (mock stuff!)… however the clarity of the api is a pleasure to use. The readability of the tests produced is… err very readable.

Nice work. Cheers.
