How to use intArgumentReturningInt method of org.mockitousage.MethodsImpl class

Add this dependency in Spring Boot config client:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-cloud-starter-bootstrap</artifactId>
</dependency>

You can not force a subclass to override a method. You can only force it to implement a method by making it abstract.

So if you can not make myMotherClass abstract you can only introduce another superclass that extends myMotherClass and delegates to the method that must be implemented:

public abstract class EnforceImplementation extends myMotherClass {

        public final void myMethod(){
             implementMyMethod();
        }

        public abstract void implementMyMethod();
}

EDIT

I found another interessting way of solving the problem in the hemcrest api that is e.g. used by mockito.

public interface Matcher<T> extends SelfDescribing {

    /**
     * Evaluates the matcher for argument <var>item</var>.
     * <p/>
     * This method matches against Object, instead of the generic type T. This is
     * because the caller of the Matcher does not know at runtime what the type is
     * (because of type erasure with Java generics). It is down to the implementations
     * to check the correct type. 
     *
     * @param item the object against which the matcher is evaluated.
     * @return <code>true</code> if <var>item</var> matches, otherwise <code>false</code>.
     *
     * @see BaseMatcher
     */
    boolean matches(Object item);

    /**
     * This method simply acts a friendly reminder not to implement Matcher directly and
     * instead extend BaseMatcher. It's easy to ignore JavaDoc, but a bit harder to ignore
     * compile errors .
     *
     * @see Matcher for reasons why.
     * @see BaseMatcher
     */
    void _dont_implement_Matcher___instead_extend_BaseMatcher_();
}

The interface specifies a method _dont_implement_Matcher___instead_extend_BaseMatcher_. Of course it does not prevent others from implementing the Matcher interface, but it guides the developer in the right direction.

And the BaseMatcher class implements the _dont_implement_Matcher___instead_extend_BaseMatcher_ method as final

public final void _dont_implement_Matcher___instead_extend_BaseMatcher_() {
    // See Matcher interface for an explanation of this method.
}

Finally I think that this is a design problem, because the BaseMatcher obviouosly implements logic that every Matcher should implement. Thus it would have been better to make the Matcher an abstract class and use a template method.

But I guess they did it because it was the best compromise between bytecode compatibility and new features.

Try Adding @Spy to your InjectMocks and use the object to "expect" them in a slightly different syntax.

import org.mockito.Spy;

 @InjectMocks
 @Spy
 private MyService myService; 

And now mock the service call

 Mockito.doReturn(mockedSomeObject).when(myService).methodB();

Also change the other mock call to this

Mockito.doReturn(stuff).when(serviceA).method();
Mockito.doReturn(otherStuff).when(serviceB).method();

Even more meaningful :

import static org.mockito.Mockito.never;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.verify;

// ...

verify(dependency, never()).someMethod();

The documentation of this feature is there §4 "Verifying exact number of invocations / at least x / never", and the never javadoc is here.

You can use Mockito's answers, so instead of:

Mockito.when(client.get(Mockito.any(Request.class))).thenReturn("100");

write:

Mockito.when(client.get(Mockito.any(Request.class)))
 .thenAnswer(new Answer() {
   Object answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) {
     Object[] args = invocation.getArguments();
     Object mock = invocation.getMock();
     return "called with arguments: " + args;
   }
});

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).

@InjectMocks is a Mockito mechanism for injecting declared fields in the test class into matching fields in the class under test. It doesn't require the class under test to be a Spring component.

@Autowired is Spring's annotation for autowiring a bean into a production, non-test class.

If you wanted to leverage the @Autowired annotations in the class under test, another approach would be to use springockito which allows you to declare mock beans so that they will be autowired into the class under test the same way that Spring would autowire the bean. But typically that's not necessary.

There are different ways to use Mockito - I'll go through them one by one.

Manually

Creating mocks manually with Mockito::mock works regardless of the JUnit version (or test framework for that matter).

Annotation Based

Using the @Mock-annotation and the corresponding call to MockitoAnnotations::initMocks to create mocks works regardless of the JUnit version (or test framework for that matter but Java 9 could interfere here, depending on whether the test code ends up in a module or not).

Mockito Extension

JUnit 5 has a powerful extension model and Mockito recently published one under the group / artifact ID org.mockito : mockito-junit-jupiter.

You can apply the extension by adding @ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class) to the test class and annotating mocked fields with @Mock. From MockitoExtension's JavaDoc:

@ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class)
public class ExampleTest {

    @Mock
    private List list;

    @Test
    public void shouldDoSomething() {
        list.add(100);
    }

}

The MockitoExtension documentation describes other ways to instantiate mocks, for example with constructor injection (if you rpefer final fields in test classes).

No Rules, No Runners

JUnit 4 rules and runners don't work in JUnit 5, so the MockitoRule and the Mockito runner can not be used.

Since you are using powermock features (@PrepareForTest, PowerMockito.whenNew etc.), you have to run your test with the PowerMockRunner.

@RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)

Because ClassB#geResult is not private, you may also simplify your code and replace

when( mockedClassB, "getResult", any(String[].class) ).thenReturn(someValue); 

by

when(mockedClassB.getResult(any(String[].class))).thenReturn(someValue);
