Make method calls non-static

[benmccann]

The fact that the API is all static makes it hard to inject mocks for testing our application

Yep, this is a known limitation of the current API. However, there aren't any plans right now for a major rewrite. Thanks for the report!

+1 for a cleaner 2.0. The static setup like this is routine in JavaScript, but it causes no end of headaches (container management, configuration, testing) in Java.

+1 - we've also hit this when attempting to write tests that mock out the actual calls to Stripe. Have to jump thru some ugly hoops to get the job done.

+1 to echo everyone else. It's a difficult API to have to work with in a TDD environment.

@kyleconroy 2 years later has the team's stance on this changed?

To anyone coming across this when searching for a solution, you can mock a request by doing:
StripeResponseGetter stripeMock = mock(StripeResponseGetter.class); APIResource.setStripeResponseGetter(stripeMock);
