That's what I hate about JMock, lol.

You had better mock everything, and better put them in the exact order they will occur in, or your test fails.

Most JMock unit tests I see are essentially the exact same code as is being tested, written a second time in the unit test. So if I want to refactor or modify this code in any way, my unit tests break- even if functionally, my tests are doing exactly what their spec says.

With Mockito, I can say 'Hey, if anyone calls this method with parameters sort of like this, give them this response', and then focus on my unit tests actually testing the output for a given input.
