Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-14178:
-----------------------------------------
Why not get on the common developer list and ask for advice. Right now, this
week, one where help would be appreciated is probably just in downloading,
testing the Hadoop 2.8.0 RC that's been put up
> Move Mockito up to version 2.x

> Key: HADOOP-14178
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-14178
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: test
> Affects Versions: 2.9.0
> Reporter: Steve Loughran
> Priority: Minor
>
> I don't know when Hadoop picked up Mockito, but it has been frozen at 1.8.5
> since the switch to maven in 2011.
> Mockito is now at version 2.1, [with lots of Java 8
> support|https://github.com/mockito/mockito/wiki/What%27s-new-in-Mockito-2].
> That' s not just defining actions as closures, but in supporting Optional
> types, mocking methods in interfaces, etc.
> It's only used for testing, and, *provided there aren't regressions*, cost of
> upgrade is low. The good news: test tools usually come with good test
> coverage. The bad: mockito does go deep into java bytecodes.
