How to use getMockSettings method of org.mockito.internal.handler.MockHandlerImpl class

PowerMockRunner is part of powermock-module-junit4.jar. You need to explicity import this jar

You could specify the dependency for this jar as per your requirement. Refer to this link.

The following, running under Mockito 1.9.0 and JUnit 4.8.2, does not print anything to my console:

import static org.mockito.Mockito.*;

import org.junit.Test;

public class TestNonCall {
  public class TestClass {
    public String test() {
      System.out.println("test called!");
      return "test";
    }
  }

  @Test
  public void doTest() {
    final TestClass mock = mock(TestClass.class);

    when(mock.test()).thenReturn("mock!");
  }
}

Further, if I put a breakpoint in the test() method it is never hit.

Perhaps post more code? It looks like your example is not complex enough to demonstrate the behaviour you're having problems with.

Also: are you using the latest version of Mockito?

Edit: New Thought: Are You Mocking a Final Method?

If you add a final modifier to the method you are mocking, you get the behaviour you reported.

This is because Mockito does not mock final and static methods. Instead, it delegates the calls to the real implementation.

Might your actual code be attempting to mock a final method?

If so, you can use PowerMock, which is an extension to Mockito that allows mocking final methods.

You would need to add the following annotations to your test case class:

@RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
@PrepareForTest(TestClass.class)
public class TestNonCall {
  // ...
}

and mock the class using the PowerMock method in your test method:

final TestClass mock = PowerMockito.mock(TestClass.class);

then proceed as usual.

Spring's MockHttpServletRequest and MockHttpServletResponse are useful for that purpose. E.g.

    MockHttpServletRequest request = new MockHttpServletRequest();
    MockHttpServletResponse response = new MockHttpServletResponse();
    request.addHeader(HttpHeaders.HOST, "myhost.com");
    request.setLocalPort(PORT_VALID); // e.g. 8081
    request.setRemoteAddr(REQUEST_IP); // e.g. 127.0.0.1

then I can call myclass.method(request, response, ...) and check whether some attribute has been correctly set into the request, e.g.

    MyBean attr = (MyBean) request.getAttribute(ATTRIBUTE_NAME));
    // do my Assert.* stuff with 'attr'

MockHttpServletRequest and MockHttpServletResponse work fine where mock(HttpServletRequest.class) fails, for instance where you need to get back the real content of a request attribute which has been previously set within your business logic.

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.

You can't mix matchers and non-matchers. Instead of "1", use Matchers.eq("1"). This creates a matcher that matches any string equal to "1", which satisfies both your needs (equal to "1") and Mockito's (both arguments are matchers).

Try Cntrl + Shift + T on your eclipse screen. Check what are your results. Ideally eclipse should resolve this class only from one dependency. If you are getting multiple results, you may need to add exclusion on certain dependencies.

Also check if you are able to execute your test cases from command prompt. If you are able to do it, then it's not a maven problem. But if something is failing here, check your dependencies.

It's a defect in Mockito with loading plugins when context class loader is different from which is used to load PowerMock and Mockito.

It could be fixed in Mockito 2, but as it mentioned in comments

Not sure we have the build infrastructure to backport the fix on 1.x

For Mockito 1, fix cannot be delivered, so I fixed in in PowerMock and fix will be include in next PowerMock release (PowerMock 1.6.5).

Like Rob said, if what you want is to mock the connection returned from the URL, you can extend URLStreamHandler. For instance, with mockito:

final URLConnection mockUrlCon = mock(URLConnection.class);

ByteArrayInputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(
        "<myList></myList>".getBytes("UTF-8"));
doReturn(is).when(mockUrlCon).getInputStream();

//make getLastModified() return first 10, then 11
when(mockUrlCon.getLastModified()).thenReturn((Long)10L, (Long)11L);

URLStreamHandler stubUrlHandler = new URLStreamHandler() {
    @Override
     protected URLConnection openConnection(URL u) throws IOException {
        return mockUrlCon;
     }            
};
URL url = new URL("foo", "bar", 99, "/foobar", stubUrlHandler);
doReturn(url).when(mockClassloader).getResource("pseudo-xml-path");

You can just write

verify(service).perform((Collection<String>) Matchers.argThat(contains("a", "b")));

From the compiler's point of view, this is casting an Iterable<String> to a Collection<String> which is fine, because the latter is a subtype of the former. At run time, argThat will return null, so that can be passed to perform without a ClassCastException. The important point about it is that the matcher gets onto Mockito's internal structure of arguments for verification, which is what argThat does.
