[Andre Dietisheim (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-18053?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12991349#comment-12991349 ] 

Andre Dietisheim commented on JBIDE-18053:
------------------------------------------

[~phantomjinx] The use with files is only an example. I am also using the approach where I create tmp-files and kick them off afterwards. There are plenty of cases where you cannot rely on interfaces, you need more power than proxies. Mockito has such means but afaik powermock goes far beyong what mockito has to offer. So far mockito was fully sufficient to me. Up to [~jcantrill] to weigh the benefits/costs. Can you elaborate? 

[~nickboldt] I dont think that there's any need for the additional testng (we use junit) and easymock (comparable to mockito, no benefit) features.
