There's an open source java8 feature set for mockito developed by Marcin Zajączkowski, see: https://solidsoft.wordpress.com/2015/06/30/more-compact-mockito-with-java-8-lambda-expressions-and-mockito-java8-add-ons

Let's figure out a way to include this in main distribution of Mockito

Discussions on this subject on the dev list:

This story needs to be scoped out. Main challenge: how do we offer java8 features with Mockito distribution and yet provide compatibility to users on java version < 8
