Werner Punz commented on MYFACES-4741:
--------------------------------------
There are limitations regarding the java versions
mockito 2 has java 6 and 7 as lower limit
mockito 4 java 8
mockito 5 java 11+
I need to take this into consideration not to break the builds
> Mockito Version in root pom is outdated

> Key: MYFACES-4741
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-4741
> Project: MyFaces Core
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Werner Punz
> Assignee: Werner Punz
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 5.0.0, 4.0.4, 4.1.3
>
>
> The Mockito version in the parent pom is outdated, this also prevents that
> static mocks can be activated which are vital to make utils classes and
> static methods calling static methods testable. At least in 4.0 a preliminary
> prototype test I wrote for MYFACES-4737 showed that upgrading to the latest
> versions and adding the static mock support does not break the build (we are
> talking about test dependencies here)!
> So what is the goal for this issue?
> Upgrade the mockito dependencies and add the static mock dependencies in all
> branches where it still is possible!
