How to use should_scream_when_not_a_mock_passed method of org.mockitousage.stubbing.StubbingWithThrowablesTest class

JMockit can handle final and static. Just pay attention to how to set it up as it requires the -javaagent JVM parameter, or classpath tweaks, or extra annotations to be able to mock final and static stuffs.

Perhaps I'm missing something, but why not just do this:

Map.Entry<Integer, Action> entrySet = <whatever you want it to return>
Map mockAvailableActions = mock(Map.class);
when(mockAvailableActions.entrySet()).thenReturn(entrySet);

Also consider whether you actually need a mock Map at all, wouldn't a real one do the job? Mocks are usually used to replace other pieces of your code which you don't want to be involved in your unit test, a Map is part of the core Java language and isn't usually mocked out.

You could use Mockito. I am not sure with PostConstruct specifically, but this generally works:

// Create a mock of Resource to change its behaviour for testing
@Mock
private Resource resource;

// Testing instance, mocked `resource` should be injected here 
@InjectMocks
@Resource
private TestedClass testedClass;

@Before
public void setUp() throws Exception {
    // Initialize mocks created above
    MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
    // Change behaviour of `resource`
    when(resource.getSomething()).thenReturn("Foo");   
}

I recommend to use approach from article: https://github.com/mockito/mockito/wiki/Mocking-Object-Creation

You need to change little bit a class, applying approach for mocking from article in following way:

AwsHelper

public class AwsHelper {

    private AmazonSQS sqs;

    public void sendMessageToQueue(String message) {
        sqs = defaultClient();

        SendMessageRequest sendMessageRequest = new SendMessageRequest();
        sendMessageRequest.setQueueUrl("");
        sendMessageRequest.setMessageBody(message);
        sendMessageRequest.setMessageGroupId("");

        sqs.sendMessage(sendMessageRequest);
    }

    protected AmazonSQS defaultClient() {
        return AmazonSQSClientBuilder.defaultClient();
    }
}

AwsSQSReferralsUtilTest

public class AwsSQSReferralsUtilTest {

    @Spy
    private AwsHelper awsHelper;

    @Mock
    private AmazonSQS sqs;

    @BeforeClass
    public void setUp() {
        MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
    }
    
    @AfterMethod
    public void afterEachMethod() {
        Mockito.reset(awsHelper);
    }

    @Test
    public void shouldSendMessage() {
        //mocking object creation
        doReturn(sqs).when(awsHelper).defaultClient();

        when(sqs.sendMessage(any(SendMessageRequest.class))).thenReturn(new SendMessageRequest());
        awsHelper.sendMessageToQueue("");
    }

}

I had this issue and my problem was that I was calling my method with any() instead of anyInt(). So I had:

doAnswer(...).with(myMockObject).thisFuncTakesAnInt(any())

and I had to change it to:

doAnswer(...).with(myMockObject).thisFuncTakesAnInt(anyInt())

I have no idea why that produced a NullPointerException. Maybe this will help the next poor soul.

You can implement this test functionality this way (Java 8):

myMock
    .expect(requestTo("http://myfakeurl.blabla"))
    .andExpect(method(HttpMethod.GET))
    .andRespond(request -> {
        try {
            Thread.sleep(TimeUnit.SECONDS.toMillis(1));
        } catch (InterruptedException ignored) {}
        return new MockClientHttpResponse(myJsonResponse, HttpStatus.OK);
    });

But, I should warn you, that since MockRestServiceServer simply replaces RestTemplate requestFactory any requestFactory settings you'd make will be lost in test environment.

You can set a default answer for a mock. All methods that aren't stubbed will use this default answer.

public void testUnstubbedException() {
    // Create a mock with all methods throwing a RuntimeException by default
    SomeClass someClass = mock( SomeClass .class, new RuntimeExceptionAnswer() );

    doReturn(1).when(someClass).getId(); // Must use doReturn

    int id = someClass.getId(); // Will return 1

    someClass.unstubbedMethod(); // Will throw RuntimeException
}

public static class RuntimeExceptionAnswer implements Answer<Object> {

    public Object answer( InvocationOnMock invocation ) throws Throwable {
        throw new RuntimeException ( invocation.getMethod().getName() + " is not stubbed" );
    }

}

Note that you cannot use when with this functionality, since the method is called before when (How does mockito when() invocation work?) and it will throw a RuntimeException before the mock goes into stubbing mode.

Therefore, you must use doReturn for this to work.

MockitoJUnitRunner gives you automatic validation of framework usage, as well as an automatic initMocks().

The automatic validation of framework usage is actually worth having. It gives you better reporting if you make one of these mistakes.

• You call the static when method, but don't complete the stubbing with a matching thenReturn, thenThrow or then. (Error 1 in the code below)

• You call verify on a mock, but forget to provide the method call that you are trying to verify. (Error 2 in the code below)

• You call the when method after doReturn, doThrow or doAnswer and pass a mock, but forget to provide the method that you are trying to stub. (Error 3 in the code below)

If you don't have validation of framework usage, these mistakes are not reported until the following call to a Mockito method. This might be

• in the same test method (like error 1 below),
• in the next test method (like error 2 below),
• in the next test class.

If they occur in the last test that you run (like error 3 below), they won't be reported at all.

Here's how each of those types of errors might look. Assume here that JUnit runs these tests in the order they're listed here.

@Test
public void test1() {

    // ERROR 1
    // This compiles and runs, but it's an invalid use of the framework because 
    // Mockito is still waiting to find out what it should do when myMethod is called.
    // But Mockito can't report it yet, because the call to thenReturn might 
    // be yet to happen.
    when(myMock.method1());

    doSomeTestingStuff();

    // ERROR 1 is reported on the following line, even though it's not the line with
    // the error.
    verify(myMock).method2();

}

@Test
public void test2() {

    doSomeTestingStuff();

    // ERROR 2
    // This compiles and runs, but it's an invalid use of the framework because
    // Mockito doesn't know what method call to verify.  But Mockito can't report 
    // it yet, because the call to the method that's being verified might 
    // be yet to happen.
    verify(myMock);
}

@Test
public void test3() {

    // ERROR 2 is reported on the following line, even though it's not even in 
    // the same test as the error.
    doReturn("Hello").when(myMock).method1();


    // ERROR 3
    // This compiles and runs, but it's an invalid use of the framework because
    // Mockito doesn't know what method call is being stubbed.  But Mockito can't 
    // report it yet, because the call to the method that's being stubbed might 
    // be yet to happen.

    doReturn("World").when(myMock);

    doSomeTestingStuff(); 

    //  ERROR 3 is never reported, because there are no more Mockito calls. 
}

Now when I first wrote this answer more than five years ago, I wrote

So I would recommend the use of the MockitoJUnitRunner wherever possible. However, as Tomasz Nurkiewicz has correctly pointed out, you can't use it if you need another JUnit runner, such as the Spring one.

My recommendation has now changed. The Mockito team have added a new feature since I first wrote this answer. It's a JUnit rule, which performs exactly the same function as the MockitoJUnitRunner. But it's better, because it doesn't preclude the use of other runners.

Include

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

in your test class. This initialises the mocks, and automates the framework validation; just like MockitoJUnitRunner does. But now, you can use SpringJUnit4ClassRunner or any other JUnitRunner as well. From Mockito 2.1.0 onwards, there are additional options that control exactly what kind of problems get reported.

spring.main.allow-bean-definition-overriding=true can be placed in test configurations. If you need extensive integration testing, you will need to override beans at some point. It's inevitable.

Though the correct answer has already been provided, it implies that your bean will have different names. So, technically, it's not an override.

If you need a real override (because you use @Qualifiers, @Resources or something similar), since Spring Boot 2.X is only possible using the spring.main.allow-bean-definition-overriding=true property.

Update: Be careful with Kotlin Bean Definition DSL. In Spring Boot it will require a custom ApplicationContextInitializer, like so:

class BeansInitializer : ApplicationContextInitializer<GenericApplicationContext> {

    override fun initialize(context: GenericApplicationContext) =
            beans.initialize(context)

}

Now if you decide to override one of such DSL-based beans in your test via @Primary @Bean method, it will not do. The initializer will kick in after @Bean methods and you'd still get the initial, DSL-based bean in your tests even with @Primary on the test @Bean. One other option would be to also create a test initializer for your tests and list them all in your test properties, like so(order matters):

context:
    initializer:
        classes: com.yuranos.BeansInitializer, com.yuranos.TestBeansInitializer

Bean Definition DSL also supports primary property via:

bean(isPrimary=true) {...}

- which you'll need to eliminate ambiguity when you try to inject a bean, however main:allow-bean-definition-overriding: true is not needed if you go pure DSL way.
