using the plugin-pom 3.51 as a base for your plugins.

 

if you use powermock and mockito at the recommended versions tests that use powermock blowup with org.mockito.exceptions.base.MockitoException: org.mockito.exceptions.base.MockitoException: Cannot mock/spy class java.lang.SystemMockito cannot mock/spy because : - final class at ShowBadMockitoVersion.testWeGetHere(ShowBadMockitoVersion.java:21)

@​RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
@​PrepareForTest({ System.class })
public class ShowBadMockitoVersion {
    @​Test    public void testWeGetHere() throws Exception {
        PowerMockito.mockStatic(System.class);
        PowerMockito.when(System.getProperty(eq("zzz"), any())).thenReturn("TEST");
        assertEquals("TEST", System.getProperty("zzz", "bogus"));
    }
}

 

 Downgrading the mockito version locally to 2.23.0 and powermock dependencies to 2.0.2 fixes the issue.
