Doing programming for as long as he can remember he has now taken a very special interest in Java and especially in the open source community. One of the projects he's currently working on is PowerMock which allows you to unit-test code normally regarded as untestable. He's given lectures and written several articles on various Java subjects including testing, mocking, web development and more.

PowerMockPowerMock can be used to test code normally regarded as untestable! Have you ever heard anyone say that you should never use static or final methods in your code because it makes them impossible to test? Have you ever changed a method from private to protected for the sake of testability?
What about avoiding "new"? Think again!
PowerMock lets you mock static methods, remove static initializers, allow mocking without dependency injection and much much more. And it works just as well for J2EE as J2ME! This presentation will give the audience a good understanding on how to easily unit-test your code without the limitations of the common mock frameworks such as EasyMock and JMock.
