New in this group --- Question:why is it a common practice to use static import for methods?

[Sócrates]

Hi guys, 

I'm new here, happy to join to help developing and learn from all you about mockito. 

I would like to ask, why is it a common practice to use static import for methods?

I feel that it is not so clean, just by avoiding the ClassName every time. But I think it is more readable and clean, any way. That is my perception.

Can you help with ideas to help me understand this, please?

Thanks,

Yeah it's a bit more confusing.  For me it's because I use it SO MUCH that I might as well clean up the code for it...and you can always use your editor to "follow" where the method is coming from, so it's not ambiguous.
