How to use NestedParallelTest class of org.mockito package

For functions returning void, use doAnswer()

doAnswer(...).when(mockedObject).handle(any(Callback[].class));

And an Answer that performs the interception must go in as the parameter to doAnswer, e.g. as an anonymous class:

new Answer() {
  public Object answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) {
      Object[] args = invocation.getArguments();
      Mock mock = invocation.getMock();
      return null;
  }}

In this case args will be the array Callback[]!

One of the problems with Mockito.when is that the argument you pass to it is the expression that you're trying to stub. So when you use Mockito.when twice for the same method call, the second time you use it, you'll actually get the behaviour that you stubbed the first time.

I actually recommend NOT using Mockito.when. There are many traps that you can fall into when you use it - quite a few cases when you need some other syntax instead. The "safer" alternative syntax is the "do" family of Mockito methods.

doReturn(value).when(mock).method(arguments ...);
doThrow(exception).when(mock).method(arguments ...);
doAnswer(answer).when(mock).method(arguments ...);

So in your case, you want

doThrow(new BadSqlGrammarException(??, ??, ??)).when(accountMapper).createBadGrammarException();

If you are starting out with Mockito, then I recommend that you learn to use the "do" family. They're the only way to mock void methods, and the Mockito documentation specifically mentions that. But they can be used whenever Mockito.when can be used. So if you use the "do" family, you'll end up with more consistency in your tests, and less of a learning curve.

For more information about the cases when you must use the "do" family, see my answer on Forming Mockito "grammars"

You can use MockingDetails and either printInvocations or getInvocations to inspect the interactions belonging to a mock. However, this will not produce a list of invocations belonging to multiple mocks in the order that happened: just interactions with each individual mock.

Code snippet, as contributed by elhefe and Anand Rockzz:

import static org.mockito.Mockito.mockingDetails;

System.out.println(mockingDetails(mock).printInvocations());
/* or */
System.out.println(mockingDetails(mock).getInvocations());

Acknowledging your reluctance and caveats in the comments, I would say that this is a technique that does more to lock in your current implementation than to analyze your real constraints and prevent regressions. Furthermore, if your algorithm has a lot of interactions with direct collaborators, that might be an indication that the algorithm should be refactored.

If the system is untested or undocumented legacy code, this might be a practical way to programmatically generate a regression test or analysis--a temporary starting point for more-informed regression testing--but in your shoes I would instead start by documenting the contract of each component and then writing a test that confirms those interactions and constraints. Mockito recommendations (as intimated through this article by Mockito's original developer) tend toward adding stubs until tests pass and adding verifications/counts only where there are expensive or non-idempotent side effects.

It should be something like

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
public class aTest () {

    @Mock
    private B b;

    @Mock
    private C c;

    @Autowired
    @InjectMocks
    private A a;

}

If you want D to be Autowired dont need to do anything in your Test class. Your Autowired A should have correct instance of D. Also i think you need to use SpringJUnit4ClassRunner for Autowiring to work, with contextConfiguration set correctly. Because you are not using MockitoJunitRunner you need to initialize your mocks yourself using

MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(java.lang.Object testClass)

From the docs:

Sometimes we need to stub with different return value/exception for the same method call. Typical use case could be mocking iterators. Original version of Mockito did not have this feature to promote simple mocking. For example, instead of iterators one could use Iterable or simply collections. Those offer natural ways of stubbing (e.g. using real collections). In rare scenarios stubbing consecutive calls could be useful, though:

when(mock.someMethod("some arg"))
   .thenThrow(new RuntimeException())
  .thenReturn("foo");

//First call: throws runtime exception:
mock.someMethod("some arg");

//Second call: prints "foo"
System.out.println(mock.someMethod("some arg"));

So in your case, you'd want:

when(myMock.doTheCall())
   .thenReturn("You failed")
   .thenReturn("Success");

You can do this by using Assume.

In below shown example, I want to check status in case if precondition==true and I want to assert that exception is thrown in case of precondition==false.

@Test
public final void testExecute() throws InvalidSyntaxException {
    Assume.assumeTrue(precondition);  // Further execution will be skipped if precondition holds false
    CommandResult result = sentence.getCommand().execute();
    boolean status = Boolean.parseBoolean(result.getResult());
    Assert.assertTrue(status);
}

@Test(expected = InvalidSyntaxException.class)
public final void testInvalidParse() throws InvalidSyntaxException {
    Assume.assumeTrue(!precondition);
    CommandResult result = sentence.getCommand().execute();
}

Hope this helps to you.

In your later comments, I figured out the gap: You need to use Mockito as a Rule and Parameterized as a Runner, not the other way around.

The reason is that the Runner is responsible for reporting the number of tests, and Parameterized manipulates the number of tests based on the number of test methods and the number of parameterized inputs, so it's really important for Parameterized to be a part of the Runner process. By contrast, the use of a Mockito runner or rule is simply to encapsulate the @Before and @After methods that initialize Mockito annotations and validate Mockito usage, which can be done very easily as a @Rule that works adjacent to other @Rule instances--to the point that the MockitoJUnitRunner is very nearly deprecated.

To crib directly from the JUnit4 Parameterized Test doc page and MockitoRule doc page:

@RunWith(Parameterized.class)
public class YourComponentTest {

    @Rule public MockitoRule rule = MockitoJUnit.rule();
    @Mock YourDep mockYourDep;

    @Parameters
    public static Collection<Object[]> data() {
        return Arrays.asList(new Object[][] {     
                 { 0, 0 }, { 1, 1 }, { 2, 1 }, { 3, 2 }, { 4, 3 }, { 5, 5 }, { 6, 8 }  
           });
    }

    private int fInput;

    private int fExpected;

    public YourComponentTest(int input, int expected) {
        fInput = input;
        fExpected = expected;
    }

    @Test
    public void test() {
        // As you may surmise, this is not a very realistic example of Mockito's use.
        when(mockYourDep.calculate(fInput)).thenReturn(fExpected);
        YourComponent yourComponent = new YourComponent(mockYourDep);
        assertEquals(fExpected, yourComponent.compute(fInput));
    }
}

Your could also use real methods, preparing and removing the configuration before and after each test:

@Before
public void setUp() {
    System.setProperty("flag", "true");
}

@After
public void tearDown() {
    System.clearProperty("flag");
}

You cant use when on getMethod, because getMethod is not a mock. It is still real object created by your class.

ArgumentCaptor has quite different purpose. Check section 15 here.

You could make your code more testable. Generally, classes that are creating new instances of other classes are difficult to test. Put some factory to this class for creating get/post methods, then in test mock this factory, and make it mock get/post methods.

public class YourClass {
  MethodFactory mf;

  public YourClass(MethodFactory mf) {
    this.mf = mf;
  }

  public void handleHttpClient(HttpClient httpClient) {
    httpClient.executeMethod(mf.createMethod());
    //your code here
  }
}

Then in test you can do:

HttpClient mockHttpClient = mock(HttpClient.class);
when(mockHttpClient.executeMethod(any(GetMethod.class)).thenReturn(HttpStatus.SC_OK);

MethodFactory factory = mock(MethodFactory.class);
GetMethod get = mock(GetMethod.class);
when(factory.createMethod()).thenReturn(get);
when(get.getResponseBodyAsStream()).thenReturn(new FileInputStream(source));

UPDATE

You can also try some nasty hack, and Answer and accessing GetMethod's private parts ;) by reflection. (This is really nasty hack)

when(mockHttpClient.executeMethod(any(GetMethod.class))).thenAnswer(new Answer() {
  Object answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) {
    GetMethod getMethod = (GetMethod) invocation.getArguments()[0];

    Field respStream = HttpMethodBase.class.getDeclaredField("responseStream");
    respStream.setAccessible(true);
    respStream.set(getMethod, new FileInputStream(source));

    return HttpStatus.SC_OK;
  }
});
