java - Android mock Camera

Question

Is it possible to mock the Android Camera class ?

@Override
public void setUp() {
    _camera = Mockito.mock(Camera.class);
}

fails to generate a mock (ExceptionInitializerError in Mockito's createProxyClass).

Should I create some kind of wrapper around the Camera (not my favorite solution, would really like to just mock the class...)?

Or, should I use a different mock library then Mockito?

Hope somebody can point me in the right direction.

The answer is late but here is a mock camera example for Android.

You can set the VideoFileInputSource to mock camera from video file

textureVideoInputSource = new VideoFileInputSource(this, "mock_input_video.mp4");

or you can enable hardware camera for video stream.

textureVideoInputSource = new CameraTextureVideoInputSource(this);

You can find the complete sample project here. https://github.com/muneikh/MockCamera
