your test environment should not have the credentials to write to prod data. yiiiiikes!

Credentials end up existing in prod because the person used Mochito and didn’t override the function for providing credentials :’c

Credentials should only be provided at the application root, which is going to be a different root for a test harness.

Mockito shouldn't change whether or not this is possible; the code shouldn't have the prod creds (or any external resource references) hard coded in the compiled bytecode.

I totally agree, I’m being tongue in cheek, but given how poor some codebases can be, the more precautions the better ie compilation failures on non-mocked functions.
