How to use shouldUseConstructor method of org.mockitoinline.SpyWithConstructorTest class

You cannot do this because according to spec you cannot put the same annotation twice on the same annotated element.

So, what is the solution? The solution is to put only one @RunWith() with runner you cannot stand without and replace other one with something else. In your case I guess you will remove MockitoJUnitRunner and do programatically what it does.

In fact the only thing it does it runs:

MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(test);

in the beginning of test case. So, the simplest solution is to put this code into setUp() method:

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

I am not sure, but probably you should avoid multiple call of this method using flag:

private boolean mockInitialized = false;
@Before
public void setUp() {
    if (!mockInitialized) {
        MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
        mockInitialized = true;  
    }
}

However better, reusable solution may be implemented with JUnt's rules.

public class MockitoRule extends TestWatcher {
    private boolean mockInitialized = false;

    @Override
    protected void starting(Description d) {
        if (!mockInitialized) {
            MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
            mockInitialized = true;  
        }
    }
}

Now just add the following line to your test class:

@Rule public MockitoRule mockitoRule = MockitoJUnit.rule();

and you can run this test case with any runner you want.

(I assume you can use Mockito though) Nothing dedicated comes to my mind but I tend to use the following strategy when it comes to situations like that:

1) In the class under test, replace the static direct call with a call to a package level method that wraps the static call itself:

public class ToBeTested{

    public void myMethodToTest(){
         ...
         String s = makeStaticWrappedCall();
         ...
    }

    String makeStaticWrappedCall(){
        return Util.staticMethodCall();
    }
}

2) Spy the class under test while testing and mock the wrapped package level method:

public class ToBeTestedTest{

    @Spy
    ToBeTested tbTestedSpy = new ToBeTested();

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

    @Test
    public void myMethodToTestTest() throws Exception{
       // Arrange
       doReturn("Expected String").when(tbTestedSpy).makeStaticWrappedCall();

       // Act
       tbTestedSpy.myMethodToTest();
    }
}

Here is an article I wrote on spying that includes similar case, if you need more insight: sourceartists.com/mockito-spying

Mockito comes with a helper class to save you some reflection boiler plate code:

import org.mockito.internal.util.reflection.Whitebox;

//...

@Mock
private Person mockedPerson;
private Test underTest;

// ...

@Test
public void testMethod() {
    Whitebox.setInternalState(underTest, "person", mockedPerson);
    // ...
}

Update: Unfortunately the mockito team decided to remove the class in Mockito 2. So you are back to writing your own reflection boilerplate code, use another library (e.g. Apache Commons Lang), or simply pilfer the Whitebox class (it is MIT licensed).

Update 2: JUnit 5 comes with its own ReflectionSupport and AnnotationSupport classes that might be useful and save you from pulling in yet another library.

For the future I would recommend Eran Harel's answer (refactoring moving new to factory that can be mocked). But if you don't want to change the original source code, use very handy and unique feature: spies. From the documentation:

You can create spies of real objects. When you use the spy then the real methods are called (unless a method was stubbed).

Real spies should be used carefully and occasionally, for example when dealing with legacy code.

In your case you should write:

TestedClass tc = spy(new TestedClass());
LoginContext lcMock = mock(LoginContext.class);
when(tc.login(anyString(), anyString())).thenReturn(lcMock);

The easiest way is using Lombok library.

@Value
@Builder
public class MessageEvent<T> {
    T message;
    TypeEnum type;
}

And the usage is like this.

MessageEvent<String> messageEvent = MessageEvent.<String>builder().message("test").build();

To answer your second question first. If you're using JUnit 4, you can annotate your test with

@Test(expected=MyException.class)

to assert that an exception has occured. And to "mock" an exception with mockito, use

when(myMock.doSomething()).thenThrow(new MyException());

A unit test shouldn't use any Spring configuration. You should simply instantiate your component, and inject dependencies (usually fake ones) manually.

You used field injection, which makes it a bit harder. With constructor injection, all you would need to do is

Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MyController.class);
MyController controller = new MyController(logger);

Mockito can help injecting fake dependencies for you, though, even when using field injection, thanks to the @Mock, @Spy and @InjectMocks annotations:

@Spy
private Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(MyController.class);

@InjectMocks
private MyController controller;

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

That said, if I'm not mistaken, you're not using @RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class), so your test runner doesn't know anything about Spring, and thus doesn't create or use any Spring configuration.

I just had this error and worked through the solution. My pom.xml file had the following dependency:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.powermock</groupId>
  <artifactId>powermock-mockito-release-full</artifactId>
  <version>1.5</version>
  <classifier>full</classifier>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

The problem comes from the fact my code uses JUnit and the above dependency has an external dependency on TestNG. This was stopping my test from running. Why I don't know - you would have though a test framework would have been tested a little bit better!!!

Anyway the solution was to break down the 'full' dependencies to just those required:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.powermock</groupId>
  <artifactId>powermock-api-mockito</artifactId>
  <version>1.5</version>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.powermock</groupId>
  <artifactId>powermock-core</artifactId>
  <version>1.5</version>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
  <groupId>org.powermock</groupId>
  <artifactId>powermock-module-junit4</artifactId>
  <version>1.5</version>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

That solved it. BTW I used mvn dependency:tree to understand the associated dependencies.

I got the answer we can do it in the following way

when(nodeIterator.hasNext()).thenReturn(true).thenReturn(false);

this is known as method stubbing. Similarly if you want to call it twice and then you want to return false, then do as follows

when(nodeIterator.hasNext()).thenReturn(true).thenReturn(true).thenReturn(false);
