Hi--I'd qualify as the maintainer of [jxpath] but I have admittedly had little
time for it lately. I actually can't recall what mockrunner is needed for, but
I will take your complaint under advisement and look into it. For the record,
I've been having good luck with mockito lately so I might look at migrating
jxpath to that.
Thanks,
Matt
