Mockachino is a mocking framework for Java. It is very similar in usage to Mockito. See http://krkadev.blogspot.com/2010/02/mockito-vs-mockachino.html for a detailed comparison of features.

Getting started

1. Download the latest featured full jar
2. Put it in your development classpath
3. See GettingStarted for examples on how to write tests using Mockachino.

Or for maven users:

        <dependency>
          <groupId>se.mockachino</groupId>
          <artifactId>mockachino</artifactId>
