How to use DeepStubsWronglyReportsSerializationProblemsTest class of org.mockitousage.bugs.deepstubs package

I just found another way to solve the problem.

This is an issue for dexmaker 1.2, we should upgrade to dexmaker 1.4, dexmaker-mockito 1.4 and include dexmaker-dx-1.4.

So the dependencies are

dexmaker-dx-1.4.jar
dexmaker-1.4.jar
dexmaker-mockito-1.4.jar
mockito-core-1.10.19.jar

Instead of creating a equals method in your BPRequestVO class you can create a mock argument with "any(YourObject.class)" like this:

when(mockBPService.getProduct(any(BPRequestVO.class))).thenReturn(invalidServiceResponse);

YES, mockito cleans stacktraces !

The piece of code at work StackTraceFilter

There are different ways to disable that

• Since Mockito 1.10.10, provide your own StackTraceCleanerProvider via the mockito extension mechanism (create a resource file mockito-extensions/org.mockito.plugins.StackTraceCleanerProvider with the qualified name of your implementation)

• Override the cleansStackTrace method in a custom IMockitoConfiguration, look there for more information.

Since java 8, the compiler type inference have been greatly improved.

Now you could remove the class parameter from the matcher without any compilation warning:

when(implClassMock.executeTask(any())).thenReturn(null);

Note: i have the same compiler failure but only with eclipse. A bug may be ?

You could also Stub Consecutive Calls (#10 in 2.8.9 api). In this case, you would use multiple thenReturn calls or one thenReturn call with multiple parameters (varargs).

import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.mock;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.when;

import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Test;

public class TestClass {

    private Foo mockFoo;

    @Before
    public void setup() {
        setupFoo();
    }

    @Test
    public void testFoo() {
        TestObject testObj = new TestObject(mockFoo);

        assertEquals(0, testObj.bar());
        assertEquals(1, testObj.bar());
        assertEquals(-1, testObj.bar());
        assertEquals(-1, testObj.bar());
    }

    private void setupFoo() {
        mockFoo = mock(Foo.class);

        when(mockFoo.someMethod())
            .thenReturn(0)
            .thenReturn(1)
            .thenReturn(-1); //any subsequent call will return -1

        // Or a bit shorter with varargs:
        when(mockFoo.someMethod())
            .thenReturn(0, 1, -1); //any subsequent call will return -1
    }
}

For some reason, your test suite, tries to load the MockitoJunitRunner from the org.mockito.junit contained in the Mockito versions >= 2. O. In that version, the line:

at org.mockito.junit.MockitoJUnitRunner.<init>(MockitoJUnitRunner.java:152)

is doing this:

public MockitoJUnitRunner(Class<?> klass) throws InvocationTargetException {
        //by default, StrictRunner is used. We can change that potentially based on feedback from users
        this(new StrictRunner(new RunnerFactory().createStrict(klass), klass));
    }

and the RunnerFactory that is loaded here is from version 1.x as createStrict has been introduced in Mockito 2.x.

So go through the pom dependency tree and to find what artifact implicitly add the Mockito 2.x dependency to your project and exclude it.

Alternatively.. as a workaround, instead of the @RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class) you can use:

@Before
public void init() {
    MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
}

You can also check out this Mockito cheat sheet to keep all the standards at hand.

This question is ancient, but Mockito v2.1.0+ now has a built-in feature for this.

verify(mock, description("This will print on failure")).someMethod("some arg");

More examples included from @Lambart's comment below:

verify(mock, times(10).description("This will print if the method isn't called 10 times")).someMethod("some arg");
verify(mock, never().description("This will print if someMethod is ever called")).someMethod("some arg");
verify(mock, atLeastOnce().description("This will print if someMethod is never called with any argument")).someMethod(anyString());

Thanks to @J Andy's line of thought, I realised that I had been heading down the wrong path on this. In Update 1 I was trying to inject the mock service into the MockMvc but after taking a step back I realised that it's not the MockMvc that was under test, it was the PolicyController I wanted to test.

To give a bit of background, I wanted to avoid a traditional unit test of the @Controllers in my Spring MVC application because I wanted to test things that are only provided by running the controllers within Spring itself (e.g. RESTful calls to controller actions). This can be achieved by using the Spring MVC Test framework which allows you to run your tests within Spring.

You'll see from the code in my initial question that I was running the Spring MVC tests in a WebApplicationContext (i.e. this.mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders.webAppContextSetup(this.wac).build(); ) whereas what I should have been doing was running standalone. Running standalone allows me to directly inject the controller I want to test and, therefore, have control over how the service is injected into the controller (i.e. force a mock service to be used).

This is easier explained in code. So for the following controller:

import javax.validation.Valid;

import name.hines.steven.medical_claims_tracker.domain.Benefit;
import name.hines.steven.medical_claims_tracker.domain.Policy;
import name.hines.steven.medical_claims_tracker.services.DomainEntityService;
import name.hines.steven.medical_claims_tracker.services.PolicyService;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Controller;
import org.springframework.validation.BindingResult;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ModelAttribute;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.PathVariable;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMethod;
import org.springframework.web.servlet.ModelAndView;

@Controller
@RequestMapping("/policies")
public class PolicyController extends DomainEntityController<Policy> {

    @Autowired
    private PolicyService service;

    @RequestMapping(value = "persist", method = RequestMethod.POST)
    public String createOrUpdate(@Valid @ModelAttribute("policy") Policy policy, BindingResult result) {
        if (result.hasErrors()) {
            return "createOrUpdatePolicyForm";
        }
        service.save(policy);
        return "redirect:list";
    }
}

I now have the following test class in which the service is successfully mocked out and my test database is no longer hit:

package name.hines.steven.medical_claims_tracker.controllers;

import static org.mockito.Matchers.isA;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.when;
import static org.springframework.test.web.servlet.request.MockMvcRequestBuilders.post;
import static org.springframework.test.web.servlet.result.MockMvcResultMatchers.model;
import static org.springframework.test.web.servlet.result.MockMvcResultMatchers.redirectedUrl;
import static org.springframework.test.web.servlet.result.MockMvcResultMatchers.status;
import static org.springframework.test.web.servlet.result.MockMvcResultMatchers.view;
import name.hines.steven.medical_claims_tracker.domain.Policy;
import name.hines.steven.medical_claims_tracker.services.PolicyService;

import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.mockito.InjectMocks;
import org.mockito.Mock;
import org.mockito.MockitoAnnotations;
import org.springframework.test.context.ContextConfiguration;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner;
import org.springframework.test.web.servlet.MockMvc;
import org.springframework.test.web.servlet.setup.MockMvcBuilders;

@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration({ "classpath:/applicationContext.xml" })
public class PolicyControllerTest {

    @Mock
    PolicyService policyService;

    @InjectMocks
    PolicyController controllerUnderTest;

    private MockMvc mockMvc;

    @Before
    public void setup() {

        // this must be called for the @Mock annotations above to be processed
        // and for the mock service to be injected into the controller under
        // test.
        MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);

        this.mockMvc = MockMvcBuilders.standaloneSetup(controllerUnderTest).build();

    }

    @Test
    public void createOrUpdateFailsWhenInvalidDataPostedAndSendsUserBackToForm() throws Exception {
        // POST no data to the form (i.e. an invalid POST)
        mockMvc.perform(post("/policies/persist")).andExpect(status().isOk())
        .andExpect(model().attributeHasErrors("policy"))
        .andExpect(view().name("createOrUpdatePolicy"));
    }

    @Test
    public void createOrUpdateSuccessful() throws Exception {

        when(policyService.save(isA(Policy.class))).thenReturn(new Policy());

        mockMvc.perform(
                post("/policies/persist").param("companyName", "Company Name")
                .param("name", "Name").param("effectiveDate", "2001-01-01"))
                .andExpect(status().isMovedTemporarily()).andExpect(model().hasNoErrors())
                .andExpect(redirectedUrl("list"));
    }
}

I'm still very much learning when it comes to Spring so any comments that will improve my explanation would be welcomed. This blog post was helpful to me in coming up with this solution.

Question might be a bit old but I will put an answer in case someone stumbles across.

• I'm using Mockito and JUnit.
• AccountRepository is a plain spring data repository extending JPARepository.
• Account is a plain JPA entity.

To test your services and mock Spring Data repositories, you need something like below.

package foo.bar.service.impl;

import foo.bar.data.entity.Account;
import foo.bar.data.repository.AccountRepository;
import foo.bar.service.AccountService;

import org.junit.Assert;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.mockito.InjectMocks;
import org.mockito.Mock;
import org.mockito.Mockito;
import org.mockito.runners.MockitoJUnitRunner;

@RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class)
public class AccountServiceImplTest {

    @Mock
    private static AccountRepository accountRepository;

    @InjectMocks
    private static AccountService accountService = new AccountServiceImpl();

    private Account account;

    @Test
    public void testFindAccount() {

        Integer accountId = new Integer(1);

        account = new Account();
        account.setId(accountId);
        account.setName("Account name");
        account.setCode("Accont code");
        account.setDescription("Account description");

        Mockito.when(accountRepository.findOne(accountId)).thenReturn(account);

        Account retrivedAccount = accountService.findAccount(accountId);

        Assert.assertEquals(account, retrivedAccount);

    }

}
