                         WARNING: Dynamic loading of agents will be disallowed by default in a future release
 
                         NOTE. argLine property is set by JaCoCo in prepare-agent stage.
+
+                        Starting from Java 21, the JDK restricts the ability of libraries to attach a Java agent to their own JVM. As a result, the inline-mock-maker might not be
+                        able to function without an explicit setup to enable instrumentation, and the JVM will always display a warning.
+
+                        To explicitly attach Mockito during test execution, the library's jar file needs to be specified as -javaagent as an argument to the executing JVM with
+
+                        @{argLine} -javaagent:${org.mockito:mockito-core:jar}
+
+                        Additionally, the `properties` goal of the `maven-dependency-plugin` must be executed.
