[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-9122) Add powermock library for writing better unit tests

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9122?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16186020#comment-16186020 ] 

Eric Yang commented on HADOOP-9122:
-----------------------------------

It turns out that commons-io 2.5 is not required as an upgrade.  It was used by my own test code.  In addition, commons-io 2.5 was a bad release.  Org.apache.commons.io.Java7Support has been removed from commons-io 2.5, but the complete fix isn't ready until commons-io 2.6 from [IO-514|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-514].  Hadoop can not upgrade to commons-io 2.5 because isSymlink method is broken in commons-io 2.5.

The proposed patch on upgrade mockito and powermock which will minimize the changes required for better unit test cases.
