Message Title

hi Mike Curwen, could you please clarify your problem? Is your problem in production code or in test code? Looking at your attached maven project, I see that you try to mock your custom constraint validator instance. Why do you use mocks in the first place for testing? Also, what exactly am I looking at. If I run maven test on the sources as they are, I get:

java.lang.VerifyError: (class: com/company/app/module/constraint/validator/FooValidator$$EnhancerByCGLIB$$2a7ac351, method: isValid signature: (Ljava/lang/Object;Ljavax/validation/ConstraintValidatorContext;)Z) Incompatible argument to function
