asm 6.2 alone does not fix this, neither does upgrading to latest bytebuddy help here.
The combination of asm 6.2, latest bytebuddy, a minor code change in mockito and setting `-Dnet.bytebuddy.experimental=true` helps here. mockito-core-2.21.0.jar 	
byte-buddy-1.8.15.jar

with org.mockito.plugins.MockMaker "mock-maker-inline" the fix is not working with java 1.8_172 and java  11-ea+24.

without "mock-maker-inline" it works

org.mockito.exceptions.base.MockitoException:

``` @cstroe Are you sure that you don't have some older byte-buddy version on the classpath?

(of course I assume that use you the latest version of Mockito and Byte Buddy provided by it). @szpak Your intuition is correct.  I am using Spring Boot version `2.0.5.RELEASE`, and it is using an older version of the Mockito library.  In order to use the newest Mockito, I had to change my Gradle config:
```
    testCompile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test') {
        exclude group: "org.mockito", module: "mockito-core"
    }
    testCompile("org.mockito:mockito-core:2.23.4")
```

That fixed my errors.  Thank you for the help. Great to hear.

Btw, Spring Boot provides also an easier way to override dependency [versions](https://docs.spring.io/platform/docs/Cairo-BUILD-SNAPSHOT/reference/html/getting-started-overriding-versions.html). Here, overriding Mockito would be enough.

Btw, AFAIR only Spring Boot 2.1 declared Java 11 compatibility. Therefore, you may want to upgrade to prevent further surprises :). > testCompile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test') {
>         exclude group: "org.mockito", module: "mockito-core"
>     }
>     testCompile("org.mockito:mockito-core:2.23.4")

this works like a charm, Thank You! >

Anyone has an idea how to do this in pom.xml? @JiDarwish It's basic maven dependency management ;)

```xml

If your project extend `spring-boot-starter-parent` you might just add : 
```
	<properties>
		<mockito.version>2.23.4</mockito.version>
	</properties>
```

In your Maven file. 
Provide Java 11 compatibility
I ran tests with JAva 11 and getting the follwing exception. may be asm 6.2 fixes this?
