How to use shouldBeAbleToCheckIsArgVargs method of org.mockito.internal.invocation.InvocationsFinderTest class

I've also wandered how to inject a mock into a spy.

The following approach will not work:

@Spy
@InjectMocks
private MySpy spy;

But the desired behavior can be achieved by a "hybrid" approach, when using both annotation and manual mocking. The following works perfectly:

@Mock
private NeedToBeMocked needToBeMocked;

@InjectMocks
private MySpy mySpy;

@InjectMocks
private SubjectUnderTest sut;

@BeforeMethod
public void setUp() {
    mySpy = Mockito.spy(new MySpy());
    MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
}

(SubjectUnderTest here depends on MySpy, and MySpy in its turn depends on NeedToBeMocked).

UPD: Personally, I think that if you have to do such a magic too often, it might be a sign that there is something wrong with dependenicies between your classes and it is worth to perform a little bit of refactoring to improve your code.

You could do this by using an Answer to increment a counter if any of the methods are called.

private Answer incrementCounter = new Answer() {
    public Object answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) throws Throwable {
        counter++;
        return null;
    }        
};

Note that you need to stub all methods. A method's uniqueness is based on its signature and not just the method name. Two methods with the same name are still two different methods.

doAnswer(incrementCounter).when(mockObj.method1(anyString()));
doAnswer(incrementCounter).when(mockObj.method1(anyString(), anyString()));
doAnswer(incrementCounter).when(mockObj.method2(anyString()));

See documentation for doAnswer here.

You could provide a default Answer in the construction of your mock that always throws an exception. Then every call that is stubbed will act like usual. Everything outside those paths will throw an exception. Something like this:

final String arg = "some arg";
Collection<Object> object = mock(Collection.class, new Answer<Object>() {
    @Override
    public Object answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) throws Throwable {
        throw new IllegalArgumentException("You cannot invoke " + invocation.getMethod() +
                                    " with " + Arrays.toString(invocation.getArguments()));
    }
});
doReturn(true).when(object).add(arg);

object.add(arg); // Goes ok
object.add("azertyuiop"); // Throws the exception

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);
    }
}

Mockito 2 now supports final classes and methods!

But for now that's an "incubating" feature. It requires some steps to activate it which are described in What's New in Mockito 2:

Mocking of final classes and methods is an incubating, opt-in feature. It uses a combination of Java agent instrumentation and subclassing in order to enable mockability of these types. As this works differently to our current mechanism and this one has different limitations and as we want to gather experience and user feedback, this feature had to be explicitly activated to be available ; it can be done via the mockito extension mechanism by creating the file src/test/resources/mockito-extensions/org.mockito.plugins.MockMaker containing a single line:

mock-maker-inline

After you created this file, Mockito will automatically use this new engine and one can do :

 final class FinalClass {
   final String finalMethod() { return "something"; }
 }

 FinalClass concrete = new FinalClass(); 

 FinalClass mock = mock(FinalClass.class);
 given(mock.finalMethod()).willReturn("not anymore");

 assertThat(mock.finalMethod()).isNotEqualTo(concrete.finalMethod());

In subsequent milestones, the team will bring a programmatic way of using this feature. We will identify and provide support for all unmockable scenarios. Stay tuned and please let us know what you think of this feature!

From an identical issue that I just ran into, I suspect that sample is a mock, and you stubbed sample.getId() elsewhere? That caused this problem in my case, anyhow.

For some reason, Mockito gets upset if one of the arguments you pass to the stub used with doThrow in this way is the result of a method you also mocked. Perhaps it's a re-entrancy check of sorts to avoid infinite loops, I don't know.

Regardless, try replacing sample.getId() with a constant value and that should solve the issue. You could consider using a constant declared in your test for both the mock and any further uses of it. You could then also check that sample.getId() was used by the method you're testing by adding another call to verify.

The solution here is to use a customized answer. Two code samples: the first is the test classes used, the second is the test.

First, the test classes:

private interface Foo
{
    void bar(final List<String> list);
}

private static final class X
{
    private final Foo foo;

    X(final Foo foo)
    {
        this.foo = foo;
    }

    void invokeBar()
    {
        // Note: using Guava's Lists here
        final List<String> list = Lists.newArrayList("a", "b", "c");
        foo.bar(list);
        list.clear();
    }
}

On to the test:

@Test
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public void fooBarIsInvoked()
{
    final Foo foo = mock(Foo.class);
    final X x = new X(foo);

    // This is to capture the arguments with which foo is invoked
    // FINAL IS NECESSARY: non final method variables cannot serve
    // in inner anonymous classes
    final List<String> captured = new ArrayList<String>();

    // Tell that when foo.bar() is invoked with any list, we want to swallow its
    // list elements into the "captured" list
    doAnswer(new Answer()
    {
        @Override
        public Object answer(final InvocationOnMock invocation)
            throws Throwable
        {
            final List<String> list
                = (List<String>) invocation.getArguments()[0];
            captured.addAll(list);
            return null;
        }
    }).when(foo).bar(anyList());

    // Invoke...
    x.invokeBar();

    // Test invocation...
    verify(foo).bar(anyList());

    // Test arguments: works!
    assertEquals(captured, Arrays.asList("a", "b", "c"));
}

Of course, being able to write such a test requires that you are able to inject into your "outer object" sufficient state so that the test is meaningful... Here it is relatively easy.

Weird that your solution seems to work.
According to their documentation on Github it says.

My working structure now looks like this.

This sounds very much like you have the wrong version of the servlet API in the class path.

Check when isAsyncStarted was added to the API and make sure the one you reference in your classpath is at least that version or higher.

In order to find the location where the 'wrong' class version is comming from you can use the

-verbose:class

Argument for java. It will list all the classes loaded and if I remember correctly whery they get loaded from. See http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/java.html for details.
