# 2022-08-02 ## IntelliJ 2022.2 support Diffblue is excited to announce that we now support the brand new IntelliJ 2022.2 release - IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition 2022.2 and IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate 2022.2 In keeping with our policy of supporting the current and the previous releases, we now support IntelliJ 2022.2 and IntelliJ 2022.1. ## Mockito static mocking In this release, we introduce support for Mockito static mocking using the new \`–mock-static\` option. This feature enables the mocking of static methods of the specified classes in created tests using \`Mockito.mockStatic\`. To use this feature, you must have Mockito 3.4.0 or above. Full documentation is provided here: [https://docs.diffblue.com/knowledge-base/cli/mock-static](https://github.com/diffblue/website-docs/blob/develop/knowledge-base/cli/mock-static/README.md) ## New CLI environment variables option You can now set environment variables in Cover using the `--environment` option. For full details please see our user manual: [https://docs.diffblue.com/knowledge-base/cli/cli-manual/#environment](https://github.com/diffblue/website-docs/blob/develop/knowledge-base/cli/cli-manual/README.md#environment) ## Developer Edition trial available We are delighted to now offer a 14-day trial version of our Developer Edition, which includes the Diffblue Cover CLI, as part of our new licensing option.
