Mock Build Version with Mockito

Solution
So far from other questions similar to this one it looks like you have to use reflection.
Stub value of Build.VERSION.SDK_INT in Local Unit Test
How to mock a static final variable using JUnit, EasyMock or PowerMock
static void setFinalStatic(Field field, Object newValue) throws Exception {
field.setAccessible(true);
Field modifiersField = Field.class.getDeclaredField("modifiers");
modifiersField.setAccessible(true);
modifiersField.setInt(field, field.getModifiers() & ~Modifier.FINAL);
field.set(null, newValue);
}
...and then in this case use it like this...
setFinalStatic(Build.VERSION.class.getField("SDK_INT"), 16);
Another way around would be to create a class that accesses/wraps the field in a method that can be later mocked
public interface BuildVersionAccessor {
int getSDK_INT();
}
and then mocking that class/interface
BuildVersionAccessor buildVersion = mock(BuildVersionAccessor.class);
when(buildVersion.getSDK_INT()).thenReturn(16);
Problem
My target is to mock Build.Version.SDK_INT with Mockito. Already tried: ``` final Build.VERSION buildVersion = Mockito.mock(Build.VERSION.class); doReturn(buildVersion.getClass()).when(buildVersion).getClass(); doReturn(16).when(buildVersion.SDK_INT); ``` Problem is that: when requires method after mock, and .SDK_INT is not a method.
