How to use stubs_with_hamcrest_matcher method of org.mockitousage.matchers.CustomMatcherDoesYieldCCETest class

@InjectMocks will not instantiate or mock your class. This annotation is used for injecting mocks into this field.

If you want to test serviceImpl you will need to mock in this way:

@Mock
private OrderIF order;

@InjectMocks
private Service reqService = new ServiceImpl(); 

To make it work you either need to use runner or MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this); in @Before method.

As the error says, if you use matchers then all of the arguments need to use them, e.g.:

eq(new LocalDate())

Or if you don't care about the value of the LocalDates use:

any(LocalDate.class)

After posting the question I found the answer, it seems to be a problem with version 1.6.5, it needs an additional dependency, it's described here.

The dependency is powermock-api-mockito-common version 1.6.5, you can either add it to you pom.xml

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.powermock</groupId>
    <artifactId>powermock-api-mockito-common</artifactId>     
    <version>1.6.5</version>
</dependency>

or download the jar

Let me quote the official documentation:

Important gotcha on spying real objects!

Sometimes it's impossible to use when(Object) for stubbing spies. Example:

List list = new LinkedList();
List spy = spy(list);

// Impossible: real method is called so spy.get(0) throws IndexOutOfBoundsException (the list is yet empty)
when(spy.get(0)).thenReturn("foo");

// You have to use doReturn() for stubbing
doReturn("foo").when(spy).get(0);

In your case it goes something like:

doReturn(resultsIWant).when(myClassSpy).method1();

Here is a good start using Mockito to test your UserDAO. This code uses a good amount of the Mockito features, so you can see how to use them. Let me know if you have questions.

You can achieve that with thenAnswer(), a feature Mockito documentation sees as controversial:

Yet another controversial feature which was not included in Mockito originally. We recommend using simple stubbing with toReturn() or toThrow() only. Those two should be just enough to test/test-drive any clean & simple code.

Here's thenAnswer:

private boolean called = false;

when(mock.nextItem()).thenAnswer(new Answer() {
 Object answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) {   
     called = true;       
     return item;
 }
when(mock.isEmpty()).thenAnswer(new Answer() {
 Object answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) {          
     return called;
 }
});

The idea of mocking is that you totally isolate the thing that you are testing. Then, when the test fails you can be sure where the problem is without having to hunt through the whole class dependency tree. If you are testing the behaviour of multiple classes together then this is not really unit testing.

An object factory for the tests would presumably make objects with stubbed methods, and the mocking frameworks are essentially generic object factories for use in tests. But mocks provide a lot more than stubs do - a difference which Martin Fowler goes into detail on here: http://martinfowler.com/articles/mocksArentStubs.html.

If you find mocking arduous, and you also find that you are doing a lot of it, then that is a classic example of TDD telling you that your design could be improved.

You can use ByteArrayOutputStream which writes the data in memory. You can read this with a ByteArrayInputStream.

An alternative is to write an expecting OutputStream which fails as soon as you attempt to write an incorrect byte. This can be helpful to see exactly where/why a test fails.

How about

when( method-call ).thenReturn( value1, value2, value3 );

You can put as many arguments as you like in the brackets of thenReturn, provided they're all the correct type. The first value will be returned the first time the method is called, then the second answer, and so on. The last value will be returned repeatedly once all the other values are used up.
