Partial mock about mocktail HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @dan-leech 👋
Thanks for opening an issue!

As far as I know, I don't think this would be possible with the current approach because when works by relying on noSuchMethod which would not be triggered if there was a real method which could be invoked in the first place.

I also think this would be confusing because it wouldn't be obvious which methods are stubs and which are real. In my opinion, when I see a Mock I automatically assume that all implementations are stubbed.

Is there a mocking library which supports this functionality as a reference? Thanks!

@felangel You are right this is not good practice to use this, but btw https://javadoc.io/doc/org.mockito/mockito-core/latest/org/mockito/Mockito.html#16

Thanks for providing the link. Closing this for now since I'd prefer to avoid introducing support for this based on our discussion and we can revisit this topic at a later time if needed 👍

I think this feature would be great and it could be implemented like this:
MockClass extends PartialMock implements Class
What do you think?
