PowerMock Mockito: how to mock all static methods?

Question

Do we need to mock all static methods of a class when using PowerMock (with Mockito)? I mean, suppose we have:

class MockMe {
   public static MockMe getInstance(){
              //return new Instance via complex process;
   }

   public static List<X> anotherStaticMethod(){
      // does xyz
   }
}

My question, if I need to mock getInstance method, is it necessary to mock "anotherStaticMethod" as well?

PowerMock version:1.3, Mockito version:1.8

No you can use partial mocking using spy in PowerMockito. Or you can use the stubbing API:

stub(method(MockMe.class, "getInstance")).toReturn(myMockMeInstance);
