>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-5170
>             Project: Apache Drill
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.8.0
>            Reporter: Paul Rogers
>            Priority: Minor

> Drill makes extensive use of the Mockito mocking library. Drill uses a very old version of Mockito. Mockito appears to perform byte-code manipulations that are incompatible with Java 8. For example:
> {code}
> cd exec/java-exec/
> mvn surefire:test -Dtest=TestSimpleProjection
> Running org.apache.drill.exec.physical.impl.project.TestSimpleProjection#project
> Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 1, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 6.794 sec <<< FAILURE! - in org.apache.drill.exec.physical.impl.project.TestSimpleProjection
> project(org.apache.drill.exec.physical.impl.project.TestSimpleProjection)  Time elapsed: 0.215 sec  <<< ERROR!
> java.lang.VerifyError: null
> 	at sun.instrument.InstrumentationImpl.redefineClasses0(Native Method)
> 	at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
> 	at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:498)
> {code}
> A similar error occurs when running the same unit test under Eclipse.
> Fixing this issue is non-trivial. Mockito is subject to rapid change. The semantics of mocks has changed significantly. Code that works fine in our old version requires extensive rework to work with the current version.
> For now, the only workaround is to compile Drill under the (obsolete) Java 7 and use that version to run unit tests.
