title: Spring Boot Unit testing for Mock beans vs Mockito
body: <p>I am using a spring boot 1.5.4 project where I need a clarification on testing package. </p>
  
  <p>I am seeing Spring Boot comes with <code>@MockBean</code> which is part of <code>org.springframework.boot.test.mock.mockito</code> package. </p>
  
  <p>My question is - Is it similar to Mockito external dependency and I can avoid using Mockito as external dependency as spring boot mock.* package has all features which Mockito has?</p>
