I have a Quarkus project where all the unit tests are written in JUnit5 and using Mockito to stub out repository methods.

However, there is a push to replace the use of repository methods with calls made directly to the PanacheEntity class (where possible). Static calls such as

MyAwesomeEntity.findById(Object id)

Rather than having a repository like

public class MyAwesomeEntityRepository implements PanacheRepository<MyAwesomeEntity> {   } 

which was trivial to stub out with Mockito.

Is there a good way to mock the PanacheEntity methods for certain entities without having to replace use of Mockito for mocking repositories and services elsewhere in the same test?
