 ownCloud currently has a ton of static methods which is a very bad thing concerning testability. Therefore the App Framework comes with an :php:class:`OCA\\AppFramework\\Core\\API` abstraction layer (basically a `facade <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facade_pattern>`_) which is located in the App Framework app at :file:`core/api.php`.

 This will allow you to easily mock the API in your unittests.
