Upgrade Notes for Dropwizard 1.1.x

Due to PR #1851, users must now add mockito as a test dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
    <artifactId>mockito-core</artifactId>
    <version>2.7.6</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

Else become susceptible to the following error:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/mockito/Mockito

Due to PR #1695, Cli no longer allows exceptions to propagate, (which is a net positive), but I did have to rewrite my tests to no longer trap for exceptions but examine stderr.


If you used the Hibernate integration, you need to upgrade your data access code to Hibernate 5.2.7 from 5.1.0. Please see the discussion of the change in PR #1871. Please also check out the Hibernate 5.2 Migration Guide.
