* Configures mock creation logic behind @Mock, @Captor and @Spy annotations

* If you are interested then see implementations or source code of {@link MockitoAnnotations#initMocks(Object)}

* <p>This interface can be used to configure a different annotation engine through
* {@link org.mockito.configuration.IMockitoConfiguration}, however this mechanism is being superseded by the new
* {@link org.mockito.plugins plugin} system.
*
* <p>
* Note that if it exists on the classpath both a class <code>org.mockito.configuration.MockitoConfiguration</code>
* and a file <code>mockito-extensions/org.mockito.plugins.AnnotationEngine</code> then the implementation of
* <code>org.mockito.configuration.MockitoConfiguration</code> will be chosen instead of the one in the file.
* @deprecated Please use {@link org.mockito.plugins.AnnotationEngine} instead,
* this interface will probably be removed in mockito 3.
