How to use createConstructionMock method of org.mockito.internal.creation.bytebuddy.ByteBuddyMockMaker class

Your brackets are in the wrong place, try this:

doNothing().when(mockRegistrationPeristImpl).create(any(Registration.class));

Mockito itself doesn't seem to be able to mock native methods according to this Google Group thread. However you do have two options:

1. Wrap the TableElement class in an interface and mock that interface to properly test that your SUT calls the wrapped insertRow(...) method. The drawback is the extra interface that you need to add (when GWT project should've done this in their own API) and the overhead to use it. The code for the interface and the concrete implementation would look like this:

   // the mockable interface
   public interface ITableElementWrapper {
       public void insertRow(int index);
   }
   
   // the concrete implementation that you'll be using
   public class TableElementWrapper implements ITableElementWrapper {
       TableElement wrapped;
   
       public TableElementWrapper(TableElement te) {
           this.wrapped = te;
       }
   
       public void insertRow(int index) {
           wrapped.insertRow(index);
       }
   }
   
   // the factory that your SUT should be injected with and be 
   // using to wrap the table element with
   public interface IGwtWrapperFactory {
       public ITableElementWrapper wrap(TableElement te);
   }
   
   public class GwtWrapperFactory implements IGwtWrapperFactory {
       public ITableElementWrapper wrap(TableElement te) {
           return new TableElementWrapper(te);
       }
   }
   

2. Use Powermock and it's Mockito API extension called PowerMockito to mock the native method. The drawback is that you have another dependency to load into your test project (I'm aware this may be a problem with some organizations where a 3rd party library has to be audited first in order to be used).

Personally I'd go with option 2, as GWT project is not likely to wrap their own classes in interfaces (and it is more likely they have more native methods that needs to be mocked) and doing it for yourself to only wrap a native method call is just waste of your time.

If you are using Spring (the spring-test library specifically), you can simply use ReflectionTestUtils.setField instead of Whitebox.setInternalState

I think you do need to cast it, but it shouldn't be too bad:

Foo<Bar> mockFoo = (Foo<Bar>) mock(Foo.class);
when(mockFoo.getValue()).thenReturn(new Bar());

One way is using reflection get rid of final modifier from the field and then replace the LOGGER field with Mocked one

public class Class1Test {
    @Test
    public void test() throws Exception {
        Logger logger = Mockito.mock(Logger.class);
        Mockito.when(logger.isInfoEnabled()).thenReturn(false);
        setFinalStatic(Class1.class.getDeclaredField("LOGGER"), logger);
        Class1 cls1 = new Class1();
        assertFalse(cls1.demoMethod());
    }

    static void setFinalStatic(Field field, Object newValue) throws Exception {
        field.setAccessible(true);        
        Field modifiersField = Field.class.getDeclaredField("modifiers");
        modifiersField.setAccessible(true);
        modifiersField.setInt(field, field.getModifiers() & ~Modifier.FINAL);
        field.set(null, newValue);
    }
}

You need to provide a way of accessing the member variables so you can pass in a mock (the most common ways would be a setter method or a constructor which takes a parameter).

If your code doesn't provide a way of doing this, it's incorrectly factored for TDD (Test Driven Development).

Can I do something else to set this field?

Yes you can annotate your field with @Spy too as next:

@Spy
@InjectMocks
A a;

Then you will be able to do Mockito.when(a.getString()).thenReturn("STRING");

Indeed when it is annotated with @InjectMocks only ,Mockito doesn't mock it, it creates a normal instance of the class A by default, such that you cannot use Mockito.when() on it. As workaround, you can ask Mockito to partially mock it using @Spy.

The exception that you actually get is due to the case #2 provided in the error message:

inside when() you don't call method on mock but on some other object.

This is what you want:

@RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class)
public class MyAppTest { 

    @Mock private OpportunitiesService mocked_m_oppsSvc;
    @InjectMocks MyApp myApp;

    @Test public void when_MyApp_uses_OpportunititesService_then_verify_something() { 
        // given
        given( mocked_m_oppsSvc.whatever()).willReturn(...);

        // when
        myApp.isUsingTheOpportunitiesService(...);

        // then
        verify...
        assertThat...
    }
}

Using: Mockito 1.9.0, BDD style, FEST-Assert AssertJ.

Hope that helps :)

From the Mockito FAQ:

What are the limitations of Mockito

• Cannot mock final methods - their real behavior is executed without any exception. Mockito cannot warn you about mocking final methods so be vigilant.
