title: Mockito Tests Pass individually but fail as part of a suite
body: <p>I have a case where my mockito tests all pass individually but can fail when run as part of a testing suite.
  I am using mockito version 2.9.0</p>
  
  <p>My test class is as follows</p>

  <p>Can anyone offer any insights as to why my tests are passing individually but failing as a group</p>
