0. Migrating to 2.0

* * In order to continue improving Mockito and further improve the unit testing experience, we want you to upgrade to 2.0. * Mockito follows semantic versioning * and contains breaking changes only on major version upgrades. * In the lifecycle of a library, breaking changes are necessary * to roll out a set of brand new features that alter the existing behavior or even change the API. * We hope that you enjoy Mockito 2.0! *

* List of breaking changes: *

    *
  • Mockito is decoupled from Hamcrest and custom matchers API has changed, see {@link ArgumentMatcher} * for rationale and migration guide
  • . *
  • Stubbing API has been tweaked to avoid unavoidable compilation warnings that appeared on JDK7+ platform. * This will only affect binary compatibility, compilation compatibility remains unaffected.
  • *
* *

* The following examples mock a List, because most people are familiar with the interface (such as the * add(), get(), clear() methods).
* In reality, please don't mock the List class. Use a real instance instead. * * * * *

1. Let's verify some behaviour!

* *

 * //Let's import Mockito statically so that the code looks clearer
 * import static com.fitbur.mockito.Mockito.*;
 *
 * //mock creation
 * List mockedList = mock(List.class);
 *
 * //using mock object
 * mockedList.add("one");
 * mockedList.clear();
 *
 * //verification
 * verify(mockedList).add("one");
 * verify(mockedList).clear();
 * 
* *

* Once created, a mock will remember all interactions. Then you can selectively * verify whatever interactions you are interested in. * * * * *

2. How about some stubbing?

* *

 * //You can mock concrete classes, not just interfaces
 * LinkedList mockedList = mock(LinkedList.class);
 *
 * //stubbing
 * when(mockedList.get(0)).thenReturn("first");
 * when(mockedList.get(1)).thenThrow(new RuntimeException());
 *
 * //following prints "first"
 * System.out.println(mockedList.get(0));
 *
 * //following throws runtime exception
 * System.out.println(mockedList.get(1));
 *
 * //following prints "null" because get(999) was not stubbed
 * System.out.println(mockedList.get(999));
 *
 * //Although it is possible to verify a stubbed invocation, usually it's just redundant
 * //If your code cares what get(0) returns, then something else breaks (often even before verify() gets executed).
 * //If your code doesn't care what get(0) returns, then it should not be stubbed. Not convinced? See here.
 * verify(mockedList).get(0);
 * 
* *
    *
  • By default, for all methods that return a value, a mock will return either null, a * a primitive/primitive wrapper value, or an empty collection, as appropriate. * For example 0 for an int/Integer and false for a boolean/Boolean.
  • * *
  • Stubbing can be overridden: for example common stubbing can go to * fixture setup but the test methods can override it. * Please note that overridding stubbing is a potential code smell that points out too much stubbing
  • * *
  • Once stubbed, the method will always return a stubbed value, regardless * of how many times it is called.
  • * *
  • Last stubbing is more important - when you stubbed the same method with * the same arguments many times. * Other words: the order of stubbing matters but it is only meaningful rarely, * e.g. when stubbing exactly the same method calls or sometimes when argument matchers are used, etc.
  • * *
* * * *

3. Argument matchers

* * Mockito verifies argument values in natural java style: by using an equals() method. * Sometimes, when extra flexibility is required then you might use argument matchers: * *

 * //stubbing using built-in anyInt() argument matcher
 * when(mockedList.get(anyInt())).thenReturn("element");
 *
 * //stubbing using custom matcher (let's say isValid() returns your own matcher implementation):
 * when(mockedList.contains(argThat(isValid()))).thenReturn("element");
 *
 * //following prints "element"
 * System.out.println(mockedList.get(999));
 *
 * //you can also verify using an argument matcher
 * verify(mockedList).get(anyInt());
 *
 * //argument matchers can also be written as Java 8 Lambdas
 * verify(mockedList).add(someString -> someString.length() > 5);
 *
 * 
* *

* Argument matchers allow flexible verification or stubbing. * {@link Matchers Click here to see} more built-in matchers * and examples of custom argument matchers / hamcrest matchers. *

* For information solely on custom argument matchers check out javadoc for {@link ArgumentMatcher} class. *

* Be reasonable with using complicated argument matching. * The natural matching style using equals() with occasional anyX() matchers tend to give clean & simple tests. * Sometimes it's just better to refactor the code to allow equals() matching or even implement equals() method to help out with testing. *

* Also, read section 15 or javadoc for {@link ArgumentCaptor} class. * {@link ArgumentCaptor} is a special implementation of an argument matcher that captures argument values for further assertions. *

* Warning on argument matchers: *

* If you are using argument matchers, all arguments have to be provided * by matchers. *

The following example shows verification but the same applies to stubbing: * *


 *   verify(mock).someMethod(anyInt(), anyString(), eq("third argument"));
 *   //above is correct - eq() is also an argument matcher
 *
 *   verify(mock).someMethod(anyInt(), anyString(), "third argument");
 *   //above is incorrect - exception will be thrown because third argument is given without an argument matcher.
 * 
* *

* Matcher methods like anyObject(), eq() do not return matchers. * Internally, they record a matcher on a stack and return a dummy value (usually null). * This implementation is due to static type safety imposed by the java compiler. * The consequence is that you cannot use anyObject(), eq() methods outside of verified/stubbed method. * * * * *

4. Verifying exact number of invocations / * at least x / never

* *

 * //using mock
 * mockedList.add("once");
 *
 * mockedList.add("twice");
 * mockedList.add("twice");
 *
 * mockedList.add("three times");
 * mockedList.add("three times");
 * mockedList.add("three times");
 *
 * //following two verifications work exactly the same - times(1) is used by default
 * verify(mockedList).add("once");
 * verify(mockedList, times(1)).add("once");
 *
 * //exact number of invocations verification
 * verify(mockedList, times(2)).add("twice");
 * verify(mockedList, times(3)).add("three times");
 *
 * //verification using never(). never() is an alias to times(0)
 * verify(mockedList, never()).add("never happened");
 *
 * //verification using atLeast()/atMost()
 * verify(mockedList, atLeastOnce()).add("three times");
 * verify(mockedList, atLeast(2)).add("five times");
 * verify(mockedList, atMost(5)).add("three times");
 *
 * 
* *

* times(1) is the default. Therefore using times(1) explicitly can be * omitted. * * * * *

5. Stubbing void methods with exceptions

* *

 *   doThrow(new RuntimeException()).when(mockedList).clear();
 *
 *   //following throws RuntimeException:
 *   mockedList.clear();
 * 
* * Read more about doThrow|doAnswer family of methods in paragraph 12. *

* *

6. Verification in order

* *

 * // A. Single mock whose methods must be invoked in a particular order
 * List singleMock = mock(List.class);
 *
 * //using a single mock
 * singleMock.add("was added first");
 * singleMock.add("was added second");
 *
 * //create an inOrder verifier for a single mock
 * InOrder inOrder = inOrder(singleMock);
 *
 * //following will make sure that add is first called with "was added first, then with "was added second"
 * inOrder.verify(singleMock).add("was added first");
 * inOrder.verify(singleMock).add("was added second");
 *
 * // B. Multiple mocks that must be used in a particular order
 * List firstMock = mock(List.class);
 * List secondMock = mock(List.class);
 *
 * //using mocks
 * firstMock.add("was called first");
 * secondMock.add("was called second");
 *
 * //create inOrder object passing any mocks that need to be verified in order
 * InOrder inOrder = inOrder(firstMock, secondMock);
 *
 * //following will make sure that firstMock was called before secondMock
 * inOrder.verify(firstMock).add("was called first");
 * inOrder.verify(secondMock).add("was called second");
 *
 * // Oh, and A + B can be mixed together at will
 * 
* * Verification in order is flexible - you don't have to verify all * interactions one-by-one but only those that you are interested in * testing in order. *

* Also, you can create an InOrder object passing only the mocks that are relevant for * in-order verification. * * * * *

7. Making sure interaction(s) never happened on mock

* *

 * //using mocks - only mockOne is interacted
 * mockOne.add("one");
 *
 * //ordinary verification
 * verify(mockOne).add("one");
 *
 * //verify that method was never called on a mock
 * verify(mockOne, never()).add("two");
 *
 * //verify that other mocks were not interacted
 * verifyZeroInteractions(mockTwo, mockThree);
 *
 * 
* * * * *

8. Finding redundant invocations

* *

 * //using mocks
 * mockedList.add("one");
 * mockedList.add("two");
 *
 * verify(mockedList).add("one");
 *
 * //following verification will fail
 * verifyNoMoreInteractions(mockedList);
 * 
* * A word of warning: * Some users who did a lot of classic, expect-run-verify mocking tend to use verifyNoMoreInteractions() very often, even in every test method. * verifyNoMoreInteractions() is not recommended to use in every test method. * verifyNoMoreInteractions() is a handy assertion from the interaction testing toolkit. Use it only when it's relevant. * Abusing it leads to overspecified, less maintainable tests. You can find further reading * here. * *

* See also {@link Mockito#never()} - it is more explicit and * communicates the intent well. *

* * * * *

9. Shorthand for mocks creation - @Mock annotation

* *
    *
  • Minimizes repetitive mock creation code.
  • *
  • Makes the test class more readable.
  • *
  • Makes the verification error easier to read because the field name * is used to identify the mock.
  • *
* *

 *   public class ArticleManagerTest {
 *
 *       @Mock private ArticleCalculator calculator;
 *       @Mock private ArticleDatabase database;
 *       @Mock private UserProvider userProvider;
 *
 *       private ArticleManager manager;
 * 
* * Important! This needs to be somewhere in the base class or a test * runner: * *

 * MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(testClass);
 * 
* * You can use built-in runner: {@link MockitoJUnitRunner} or a rule: {@link MockitoRule}. *

* Read more here: {@link MockitoAnnotations} * * * * *

10. Stubbing consecutive calls (iterator-style stubbing)

* * Sometimes we need to stub with different return value/exception for the same * method call. Typical use case could be mocking iterators. * Original version of Mockito did not have this feature to promote simple mocking. * For example, instead of iterators one could use {@link Iterable} or simply * collections. Those offer natural ways of stubbing (e.g. using real * collections). In rare scenarios stubbing consecutive calls could be useful, * though: *

* *


 * when(mock.someMethod("some arg"))
 *   .thenThrow(new RuntimeException())
 *   .thenReturn("foo");
 *
 * //First call: throws runtime exception:
 * mock.someMethod("some arg");
 *
 * //Second call: prints "foo"
 * System.out.println(mock.someMethod("some arg"));
 *
 * //Any consecutive call: prints "foo" as well (last stubbing wins).
 * System.out.println(mock.someMethod("some arg"));
 * 
* * Alternative, shorter version of consecutive stubbing: * *

 * when(mock.someMethod("some arg"))
 *   .thenReturn("one", "two", "three");
 * 
* * * * *

11. Stubbing with callbacks

* * Allows stubbing with generic {@link Answer} interface. *

* Yet another controversial feature which was not included in Mockito * originally. We recommend simply stubbing with thenReturn() or * thenThrow(), which should be enough to test/test-drive * any clean & simple code. However, if you do have a need to stub with the generic Answer interface, here is an example: * *


 * when(mock.someMethod(anyString())).thenAnswer(new Answer() {
 *     Object answer(InvocationOnMock invocation) {
 *         Object[] args = invocation.getArguments();
 *         Object mock = invocation.getMock();
 *         return "called with arguments: " + args;
 *     }
 * });
 *
 * //the following prints "called with arguments: foo"
 * System.out.println(mock.someMethod("foo"));
 * 
* * * * *

12. doReturn()|doThrow()| * doAnswer()|doNothing()|doCallRealMethod() family of methods

* * Stubbing void methods requires a different approach from {@link Mockito#when(Object)} because the compiler does not * like void methods inside brackets... *

* Use doThrow() when you want to stub a void method with an exception: *


 *   doThrow(new RuntimeException()).when(mockedList).clear();
 *
 *   //following throws RuntimeException:
 *   mockedList.clear();
 * 
*

* *

* You can use doThrow(), doAnswer(), doNothing(), doReturn() * and doCallRealMethod() in place of the corresponding call with when(), for any method. * It is necessary when you *

    *
  • stub void methods
  • *
  • stub methods on spy objects (see below)
  • *
  • stub the same method more than once, to change the behaviour of a mock in the middle of a test.
  • *
* but you may prefer to use these methods in place of the alternative with when(), for all of your stubbing calls. *

* Read more about these methods: *

* {@link Mockito#doReturn(Object)} *

* {@link Mockito#doThrow(Throwable...)} *

* {@link Mockito#doThrow(Class)} *

* {@link Mockito#doAnswer(Answer)} *

* {@link Mockito#doNothing()} *

* {@link Mockito#doCallRealMethod()} * * * * *

13. Spying on real objects

* * 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. * *

* Spying on real objects can be associated with "partial mocking" concept. * Before the release 1.8, Mockito spies were not real partial mocks. * The reason was we thought partial mock is a code smell. * At some point we found legitimate use cases for partial mocks * (3rd party interfaces, interim refactoring of legacy code, the full article is here) *

* *


 *   List list = new LinkedList();
 *   List spy = spy(list);
 *
 *   //optionally, you can stub out some methods:
 *   when(spy.size()).thenReturn(100);
 *
 *   //using the spy calls *real* methods
 *   spy.add("one");
 *   spy.add("two");
 *
 *   //prints "one" - the first element of a list
 *   System.out.println(spy.get(0));
 *
 *   //size() method was stubbed - 100 is printed
 *   System.out.println(spy.size());
 *
 *   //optionally, you can verify
 *   verify(spy).add("one");
 *   verify(spy).add("two");
 * 
* *

Important gotcha on spying real objects!

*
    *
  1. Sometimes it's impossible or impractical to use {@link Mockito#when(Object)} for stubbing spies. * Therefore when using spies please consider doReturn|Answer|Throw() family of * methods for stubbing. 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);
     * 
    *
  2. * *
  3. Mockito *does not* delegate calls to the passed real instance, instead it actually creates a copy of it. * So if you keep the real instance and interact with it, don't expect the spied to be aware of those interaction * and their effect on real instance state. * The corollary is that when an *unstubbed* method is called *on the spy* but *not on the real instance*, * you won't see any effects on the real instance. *
  4. * *
  5. Watch out for final methods. * Mockito doesn't mock final methods so the bottom line is: when you spy on real objects + you try to stub a final method = trouble. * Also you won't be able to verify those method as well. *
  6. *
* * * * *

14. Changing default return values of unstubbed invocations (Since 1.7)

* * You can create a mock with specified strategy for its return values. * It's quite an advanced feature and typically you don't need it to write decent tests. * However, it can be helpful for working with legacy systems. *

* It is the default answer so it will be used only when you don't stub the method call. * *


 *   Foo mock = mock(Foo.class, Mockito.RETURNS_SMART_NULLS);
 *   Foo mockTwo = mock(Foo.class, new YourOwnAnswer());
 * 
* *

* Read more about this interesting implementation of Answer: {@link Mockito#RETURNS_SMART_NULLS} * * * * *

15. Capturing arguments for further assertions (Since 1.8.0)

* * Mockito verifies argument values in natural java style: by using an equals() method. * This is also the recommended way of matching arguments because it makes tests clean & simple. * In some situations though, it is helpful to assert on certain arguments after the actual verification. * For example: *

 *   ArgumentCaptor<Person> argument = ArgumentCaptor.forClass(Person.class);
 *   verify(mock).doSomething(argument.capture());
 *   assertEquals("John", argument.getValue().getName());
 * 
* * Warning: it is recommended to use ArgumentCaptor with verification but not with stubbing. * Using ArgumentCaptor with stubbing may decrease test readability because captor is created outside of assert (aka verify or 'then') block. * Also it may reduce defect localization because if stubbed method was not called then no argument is captured. *

* In a way ArgumentCaptor is related to custom argument matchers (see javadoc for {@link ArgumentMatcher} class). * Both techniques can be used for making sure certain arguments where passed to mocks. * However, ArgumentCaptor may be a better fit if: *

    *
  • custom argument matcher is not likely to be reused
  • *
  • you just need it to assert on argument values to complete verification
  • *
* Custom argument matchers via {@link ArgumentMatcher} are usually better for stubbing. * * * * *

16. Real partial mocks (Since 1.8.0)

* * Finally, after many internal debates & discussions on the mailing list, partial mock support was added to Mockito. * Previously we considered partial mocks as code smells. However, we found a legitimate use case for partial mocks - more reading: * here *

* Before release 1.8 spy() was not producing real partial mocks and it was confusing for some users. * Read more about spying: here or in javadoc for {@link Mockito#spy(Object)} method. *

*


 *    //you can create partial mock with spy() method:
 *    List list = spy(new LinkedList());
 *
 *    //you can enable partial mock capabilities selectively on mocks:
 *    Foo mock = mock(Foo.class);
 *    //Be sure the real implementation is 'safe'.
 *    //If real implementation throws exceptions or depends on specific state of the object then you're in trouble.
 *    when(mock.someMethod()).thenCallRealMethod();
 *  
* * As usual you are going to read the partial mock warning: * Object oriented programming is more less tackling complexity by dividing the complexity into separate, specific, SRPy objects. * How does partial mock fit into this paradigm? Well, it just doesn't... * Partial mock usually means that the complexity has been moved to a different method on the same object. * In most cases, this is not the way you want to design your application. *

* However, there are rare cases when partial mocks come handy: * dealing with code you cannot change easily (3rd party interfaces, interim refactoring of legacy code etc.) * However, I wouldn't use partial mocks for new, test-driven & well-designed code. * * * * *

17. Resetting mocks (Since 1.8.0)

* * Smart Mockito users hardly use this feature because they know it could be a sign of poor tests. * Normally, you don't need to reset your mocks, just create new mocks for each test method. *

* Instead of reset() please consider writing simple, small and focused test methods over lengthy, over-specified tests. * First potential code smell is reset() in the middle of the test method. This probably means you're testing too much. * Follow the whisper of your test methods: "Please keep us small & focused on single behavior". * There are several threads about it on mockito mailing list. *

* The only reason we added reset() method is to * make it possible to work with container-injected mocks. * See issue 55 (here) * or FAQ (here). *

* Don't harm yourself. reset() in the middle of the test method is a code smell (you're probably testing too much). *


 *   List mock = mock(List.class);
 *   when(mock.size()).thenReturn(10);
 *   mock.add(1);
 *
 *   reset(mock);
 *   //at this point the mock forgot any interactions & stubbing
 * 
* * * * *

18. Troubleshooting & validating framework usage (Since 1.8.0)

* * First of all, in case of any trouble, I encourage you to read the Mockito FAQ: * http://code.google.com/p/mockito/wiki/FAQ *

* In case of questions you may also post to mockito mailing list: * http://groups.google.com/group/mockito *

* Next, you should know that Mockito validates if you use it correctly all the time. * However, there's a gotcha so please read the javadoc for {@link Mockito#validateMockitoUsage()} * * * * *

19. Aliases for behavior driven development (Since 1.8.0)

* * Behavior Driven Development style of writing tests uses //given //when //then comments as fundamental parts of your test methods. * This is exactly how we write our tests and we warmly encourage you to do so! *

* Start learning about BDD here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavior_Driven_Development *

* The problem is that current stubbing api with canonical role of when word does not integrate nicely with //given //when //then comments. * It's because stubbing belongs to given component of the test and not to the when component of the test. * Hence {@link BDDMockito} class introduces an alias so that you stub method calls with {@link BDDMockito#given(Object)} method. * Now it really nicely integrates with the given component of a BDD style test! *

* Here is how the test might look like: *


 * import static com.fitbur.mockito.BDDMockito.*;
 *
 * Seller seller = mock(Seller.class);
 * Shop shop = new Shop(seller);
 *
 * public void shouldBuyBread() throws Exception {
 *   //given
 *   given(seller.askForBread()).willReturn(new Bread());
 *
 *   //when
 *   Goods goods = shop.buyBread();
 *
 *   //then
 *   assertThat(goods, containBread());
 * }
 * 
* * * * *

20. Serializable mocks (Since 1.8.1)

* * Mocks can be made serializable. With this feature you can use a mock in a place that requires dependencies to be serializable. *

* WARNING: This should be rarely used in unit testing. *

* The behaviour was implemented for a specific use case of a BDD spec that had an unreliable external dependency. This * was in a web environment and the objects from the external dependency were being serialized to pass between layers. *

* To create serializable mock use {@link MockSettings#serializable()}: *


 *   List serializableMock = mock(List.class, withSettings().serializable());
 * 
*

* The mock can be serialized assuming all the normal * serialization requirements are met by the class. *

* Making a real object spy serializable is a bit more effort as the spy(...) method does not have an overloaded version * which accepts MockSettings. No worries, you will hardly ever use it. * *


 * List<Object> list = new ArrayList<Object>();
 * List<Object> spy = mock(ArrayList.class, withSettings()
 *                 .spiedInstance(list)
 *                 .defaultAnswer(CALLS_REAL_METHODS)
 *                 .serializable());
 * 
* * * * *

21. New annotations: @Captor, * @Spy, * @InjectMocks (Since 1.8.3)

* *

* Release 1.8.3 brings new annotations that may be helpful on occasion: * *

    *
  • @{@link Captor} simplifies creation of {@link ArgumentCaptor} * - useful when the argument to capture is a nasty generic class and you want to avoid compiler warnings *
  • @{@link Spy} - you can use it instead {@link Mockito#spy(Object)}. *
  • @{@link InjectMocks} - injects mock or spy fields into tested object automatically. *
* *

* Note that @{@link InjectMocks} can also be used in combination with the @{@link Spy} annotation, it means * that Mockito will inject mocks into the partial mock under test. This complexity is another good reason why you * should only use partial mocks as a last resort. See point 16 about partial mocks. * *

* All new annotations are *only* processed on {@link MockitoAnnotations#initMocks(Object)}. * Just like for @{@link Mock} annotation you can use the built-in runner: {@link MockitoJUnitRunner} or rule: * {@link MockitoRule}. *

* * * * *

22. Verification with timeout (Since 1.8.5)

*

* Allows verifying with timeout. It causes a verify to wait for a specified period of time for a desired * interaction rather than fails immediately if had not already happened. May be useful for testing in concurrent * conditions. *

* This feature should be used rarely - figure out a better way of testing your multi-threaded system. *

* Not yet implemented to work with InOrder verification. *

* Examples: *

*


 *   //passes when someMethod() is called within given time span
 *   verify(mock, timeout(100)).someMethod();
 *   //above is an alias to:
 *   verify(mock, timeout(100).times(1)).someMethod();
 *
 *   //passes when someMethod() is called *exactly* 2 times within given time span
 *   verify(mock, timeout(100).times(2)).someMethod();
 *
 *   //passes when someMethod() is called *at least* 2 times within given time span
 *   verify(mock, timeout(100).atLeast(2)).someMethod();
 *
 *   //verifies someMethod() within given time span using given verification mode
 *   //useful only if you have your own custom verification modes.
 *   verify(mock, new Timeout(100, yourOwnVerificationMode)).someMethod();
 * 
* * * * *

23. Automatic instantiation of @Spies, * @InjectMocks and constructor injection goodness (Since 1.9.0)

* *

* Mockito will now try to instantiate @{@link Spy} and will instantiate @{@link InjectMocks} fields * using constructor injection, setter injection, or field injection. *

* To take advantage of this feature you need to use {@link MockitoAnnotations#initMocks(Object)}, {@link MockitoJUnitRunner} * or {@link MockitoRule}. *

* Read more about available tricks and the rules of injection in the javadoc for {@link InjectMocks} *


 * //instead:
 * @Spy BeerDrinker drinker = new BeerDrinker();
 * //you can write:
 * @Spy BeerDrinker drinker;
 *
 * //same applies to @InjectMocks annotation:
 * @InjectMocks LocalPub;
 * 
* * * * *

24. One-liner stubs (Since 1.9.0)

*

* Mockito will now allow you to create mocks when stubbing. * Basically, it allows to create a stub in one line of code. * This can be helpful to keep test code clean. * For example, some boring stub can be created & stubbed at field initialization in a test: *


 * public class CarTest {
 *   Car boringStubbedCar = when(mock(Car.class).shiftGear()).thenThrow(EngineNotStarted.class).getMock();
 *
 *   @Test public void should... {}
 * 
* * * * *

25. Verification ignoring stubs (Since 1.9.0)

*

* Mockito will now allow to ignore stubbing for the sake of verification. * Sometimes useful when coupled with verifyNoMoreInteractions() or verification inOrder(). * Helps avoiding redundant verification of stubbed calls - typically we're not interested in verifying stubs. *

* Warning, ignoreStubs() might lead to overuse of verifyNoMoreInteractions(ignoreStubs(...)); * Bear in mind that Mockito does not recommend bombarding every test with verifyNoMoreInteractions() * for the reasons outlined in javadoc for {@link Mockito#verifyNoMoreInteractions(Object...)} *

Some examples: *


 * verify(mock).foo();
 * verify(mockTwo).bar();
 *
 * //ignores all stubbed methods:
 * verifyNoMoreInteractions(ignoreStubs(mock, mockTwo));
 *
 * //creates InOrder that will ignore stubbed
 * InOrder inOrder = inOrder(ignoreStubs(mock, mockTwo));
 * inOrder.verify(mock).foo();
 * inOrder.verify(mockTwo).bar();
 * inOrder.verifyNoMoreInteractions();
 * 
*

* Advanced examples and more details can be found in javadoc for {@link Mockito#ignoreStubs(Object...)} * * * * *

26. Mocking details (Since 1.9.5)

*

* To identify whether a particular object is a mock or a spy: *


 *     Mockito.mockingDetails(someObject).isMock();
 *     Mockito.mockingDetails(someObject).isSpy();
 * 
* Both the {@link MockingDetails#isMock} and {@link MockingDetails#isSpy()} methods return boolean. * As a spy is just a different kind of mock, isMock() returns true if the object is a spy. * In future Mockito versions MockingDetails may grow and provide other useful information about the mock, * e.g. invocations, stubbing info, etc. * * * * *

27. Delegate calls to real instance (Since 1.9.5)

* *

Useful for spies or partial mocks of objects that are difficult to mock or spy using the usual spy API. * Since Mockito 1.10.11, the delegate may or may not be of the same type as the mock. * If the type is different, a matching method needs to be found on delegate type otherwise an exception is thrown. * * Possible use cases for this feature: *

    *
  • Final classes but with an interface
  • *
  • Already custom proxied object
  • *
  • Special objects with a finalize method, i.e. to avoid executing it 2 times
  • *
* *

The difference with the regular spy: *

    *
  • * The regular spy ({@link #spy(Object)}) contains all state from the spied instance * and the methods are invoked on the spy. The spied instance is only used at mock creation to copy the state from. * If you call a method on a regular spy and it internally calls other methods on this spy, those calls are remembered * for verifications, and they can be effectively stubbed. *
  • *
  • * The mock that delegates simply delegates all methods to the delegate. * The delegate is used all the time as methods are delegated onto it. * If you call a method on a mock that delegates and it internally calls other methods on this mock, * those calls are not remembered for verifications, stubbing does not have effect on them, too. * Mock that delegates is less powerful than the regular spy but it is useful when the regular spy cannot be created. *
  • *
* *

* See more information in docs for {@link AdditionalAnswers#delegatesTo(Object)}. * * * * *

28. MockMaker API (Since 1.9.5)

*

Driven by requirements and patches from Google Android guys Mockito now offers an extension point * that allows replacing the proxy generation engine. By default, Mockito uses cglib to create dynamic proxies. *

The extension point is for advanced users that want to extend Mockito. For example, it is now possible * to use Mockito for Android testing with a help of dexmaker. *

For more details, motivations and examples please refer to * the docs for {@link com.fitbur.mockito.plugins.MockMaker}. * * * * *

29. (new) BDD style verification (Since 1.10.0)

* * Enables Behavior Driven Development (BDD) style verification by starting verification with the BDD then keyword. * *

 * given(dog.bark()).willReturn(2);
 *
 * // when
 * ...
 *
 * then(person).should(times(2)).ride(bike);
 * 
* * For more information and an example see {@link BDDMockito#then(Object)}} * * * * *

30. (new) Spying or mocking abstract classes (Since 1.10.12)

* * It is now possible to conveniently spy on abstract classes. Note that overusing spies hints at code design smells (see {@link #spy(Object)}). *

* Previously, spying was only possible on instances of objects. * New API makes it possible to use constructor when creating an instance of the mock. * This is particularly useful for mocking abstract classes because the user is no longer required to provide an instance of the abstract class. * At the moment, only parameter-less constructor is supported, let us know if it is not enough. * *


 * //convenience API, new overloaded spy() method:
 * SomeAbstract spy = spy(SomeAbstract.class);
 *
 * //Robust API, via settings builder:
 * OtherAbstract spy = mock(OtherAbstract.class, withSettings()
 *    .useConstructor().defaultAnswer(CALLS_REAL_METHODS));
 *
 * //Mocking a non-static inner abstract class:
 * InnerAbstract spy = mock(InnerAbstract.class, withSettings()
 *    .useConstructor().outerInstance(outerInstance).defaultAnswer(CALLS_REAL_METHODS));
 * 
* * For more information please see {@link MockSettings#useConstructor()}. * * * * *

31. (new) Mockito mocks can be serialized / deserialized across classloaders (Since 1.10.0)

* * Mockito introduces serialization across classloader. * * Like with any other form of serialization, all types in the mock hierarchy have to serializable, inclusing answers. * As this serialization mode require considerably more work, this is an opt-in setting. * *

 * // use regular serialization
 * mock(Book.class, withSettings().serializable());
 *
 * // use serialization across classloaders
 * mock(Book.class, withSettings().serializable(ACROSS_CLASSLOADERS));
 * 
* * For more details see {@link MockSettings#serializable(SerializableMode)}. * * * * *

32. (new) Better generic support with deep stubs (Since 1.10.0)

* * Deep stubbing has been improved to find generic information if available in the class. * That means that classes like this can be used without having to mock the behavior. * *

 * class Lines extends List<Line> {
 *     // ...
 * }
 *
 * lines = mock(Lines.class, RETURNS_DEEP_STUBS);
 *
 * // Now Mockito understand this is not an Object but a Line
 * Line line = lines.iterator().next();
 * 
* * Please note that in most scenarios a mock returning a mock is wrong. * * * * *

33. (new) Mockito JUnit rule (Since 1.10.17)

* * Mockito now offers a JUnit rule. Until now in JUnit there was two wasy to initialize fields annotated by Mockito annotations * such as @{@link Mock}, @{@link Spy}, @{@link InjectMocks}, etc. * *
    *
  • Annotating the JUnit test class with a @{@link org.junit.runner.RunWith}({@link MockitoJUnitRunner}.class)
  • *
  • Invoking {@link MockitoAnnotations#initMocks(Object)} in the @{@link org.junit.Before} method
  • *
* * Now you can choose to use a rule : * *

 * @RunWith(YetAnotherRunner.class)
 * public class TheTest {
 *     @Rule public MockitoRule mockito = MockitoJUnit.rule();
 *     // ...
 * }
 * 
* * For more information see {@link MockitoJUnit#rule()}. * * * * *

34. (new) Switch on or off plugins (Since 1.10.15)

* * An incubating feature made it's way in mockito that will allow to toggle a mockito-plugin. * * More information here {@link com.fitbur.mockito.plugins.PluginSwitch}. * * *

35. Custom verification failure message (Since 2.0.0)

*

* Allows specifying a custom message to be printed if verification fails. *

* Examples: *

*


 *
 * // will print a custom message on verification failure
 * verify(mock, description("This will print on failure")).someMethod();
 *
 * // will work with any verification mode
 * verify(mock, times(2).description("someMethod should be called twice")).someMethod();
 * 
* *

36. Java 8 Lambda Matcher Support (Since 2.0.0)

*

* You can use Java 8 lambda expressions with {@link ArgumentMatcher} to reduce the dependency on {@link ArgumentCaptor}. * If you need to verify that the input to a function call on a mock was correct, then you would normally * use the {@link ArgumentCaptor} to find the operands used and then do subsequent assertions on them. While * for complex examples this can be useful, it's also long-winded.

* Writing a lambda to express the match is quite easy. The argument to your function, when used in conjunction * with argThat, will be passed to the ArgumentMatcher as a strongly typed object, so it is possible * to do anything with it. *

* Examples: *

*


 *
 * // verify a list only had strings of a certain length added to it
 * // note - this will only compile under Java 8
 * verify(list, times(2)).add(argThat(string -> string.length() < 5));
 *
 * // Java 7 equivalent - not as neat
 * verify(list, times(2)).add(argThat(new ArgumentMatcher(){
 *     public boolean matches(String arg) {
 *         return arg.length() < 5;
 *     }
 * }));
 *
 * // more complex Java 8 example - where you can specify complex verification behaviour functionally
 * verify(target, times(1)).receiveComplexObject(argThat(obj -> obj.getSubObject().get(0).equals("expected")));
 *
 * // this can also be used when defining the behaviour of a mock under different inputs
 * // in this case if the input list was fewer than 3 items the mock returns null
 * when(mock.someMethod(argThat(list -> list.size()<3))).willReturn(null);
 * 
* *

37. Java 8 Custom Answer Support (Since 2.0.0)

*

* As the {@link Answer} interface has just one method it is already possible to implement it in Java 8 using * a lambda expression for very simple situations. The more you need to use the parameters of the method call, * the more you need to typecast the arguments from {@link com.fitbur.mockito.invocation.InvocationOnMock}. * *

* Examples: *

*


 * // answer by returning 12 every time
 * doAnswer(invocation -> 12).when(mock).doSomething();
 *
 * // answer by using one of the parameters - converting into the right
 * // type as your go - in this case, returning the length of the second string parameter
 * // as the answer. This gets long-winded quickly, with casting of parameters.
 * doAnswer(invocation -> ((String)invocation.getArgument(1)).length())
 *     .when(mock).doSomething(anyString(), anyString(), anyString());
 * 
* * For convenience it is possible to write custom answers/actions, which use the parameters to the method call, * as Java 8 lambdas. Even in Java 7 and lower these custom answers based on a typed interface can reduce boilerplate. * In particular, this approach will make it easier to test functions which use callbacks. * * The functions answer and answerVoid can be found in {@link AdditionalAnswers} to create the answer object * using the interfaces in {@link com.fitbur.mockito.internal.stubbing.answers.AnswerFunctionalInterfaces} support is provided * for functions with up to 5 parameters * *

* Examples: *

*


 *
 * // Example interface to be mocked has a function like:
 * void execute(String operand, Callback callback);
 *
 * // the example callback has a function and the class under test
 * // will depend on the callback being invoked
 * void receive(String item);
 *
 * // Java 8 - style 1
 * doAnswer(AdditionalAnswers.answerVoid((operand, callback) -> callback.receive("dummy"))
 *     .when(mock).execute(anyString(), any(Callback.class));
 *
 * // Java 8 - style 2 - assuming static import of AdditionalAnswers
 * doAnswer(answerVoid((String operand, Callback callback) -> callback.receive("dummy"))
 *     .when(mock).execute(anyString(), any(Callback.class));
 *
 * // Java 8 - style 3 - where mocking function to is a static member of test class
 * private static void dummyCallbackImpl(String operation, Callback callback) {
 *     callback.receive("dummy");
 * }
 *
 * doAnswer(answerVoid(TestClass::dummyCallbackImpl)
 *     .when(mock).execute(anyString(), any(Callback.class));
 *
 * // Java 7
 * doAnswer(answerVoid(new AnswerFunctionalInterfaces.VoidAnswer2() {
 *     public void answer(String operation, Callback callback) {
 *         callback.receive("dummy");
 *     }})).when(mock).execute(anyString(), any(Callback.class));
 *
 * // returning a value is possible with the answer() function
 * // and the non-void version of the functional interfaces
 * // so if the mock interface had a method like
 * boolean isSameString(String input1, String input2);
 *
 * // this could be mocked
 * // Java 8
 * doAnswer(AdditionalAnswers.answer((input1, input2) -> input1.equals(input2))))
 *     .when(mock).execute(anyString(), anyString());
 *
 * // Java 7
 * doAnswer(answer(new AnswerFunctionalInterfaces.Answer2() {
 *     public String answer(String input1, String input2) {
 *         return input1 + input2;
 *     }})).when(mock).execute(anyString(), anyString());
 *

     *
     *   // note that we're stubbing a chain of methods here: getBar().getName()
     *   when(mock.getBar().getName()).thenReturn("deep");
     *
     *   // note that we're chaining method calls: getBar().getName()
     *   assertEquals("deep", mock.getBar().getName());
     * 
*

* *

* WARNING: * This feature should rarely be required for regular clean code! Leave it for legacy code. * Mocking a mock to return a mock, to return a mock, (...), to return something meaningful * hints at violation of Law of Demeter or mocking a value object (a well known anti-pattern). *

* *

* Good quote I've seen one day on the web: every time a mock returns a mock a fairy dies. *

* *

* Please note that this answer will return existing mocks that matches the stub. This * behavior is ok with deep stubs and allows verification to work on the last mock of the chain. *


     *   when(mock.getBar(anyString()).getThingy().getName()).thenReturn("deep");
     *
     *   mock.getBar("candy bar").getThingy().getName();
     *
     *   assertSame(mock.getBar(anyString()).getThingy().getName(), mock.getBar(anyString()).getThingy().getName());
     *   verify(mock.getBar("candy bar").getThingy()).getName();
     *   verify(mock.getBar(anyString()).getThingy()).getName();
     * 
*

* *

* Verification only works with the last mock in the chain. You can use verification modes. *


     *   when(person.getAddress(anyString()).getStreet().getName()).thenReturn("deep");
     *   when(person.getAddress(anyString()).getStreet(Locale.ITALIAN).getName()).thenReturn("deep");

* This implementation can be helpful when working with legacy code. * When this implementation is used, unstubbed methods will delegate to the real implementation. * This is a way to create a partial mock object that calls real methods by default. *

* As usual you are going to read the partial mock warning: * Object oriented programming is more less tackling complexity by dividing the complexity into separate, specific, SRPy objects. * How does partial mock fit into this paradigm?

Important gotcha on spying real objects!

*
    *
  1. Sometimes it's impossible or impractical to use {@link Mockito#when(Object)} for stubbing spies. * Therefore for spies it is recommended to always use doReturn|Answer|Throw()|CallRealMethod * family of methods for stubbing. 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);
         * 
    *
  2. * *
  3. Mockito *does not* delegate calls to the passed real instance, instead it actually creates a copy of it. * So if you keep the real instance and interact with it, don't expect the spied to be aware of those interaction * and their effect on real instance state. * The corollary is that when an *unstubbed* method is called *on the spy* but *not on the real instance*, * you won't see any effects on the real instance.
  4. * *
  5. Watch out for final methods. * Mockito doesn't mock final methods so the bottom line is: when you spy on real objects + you try to stub a final method = trouble. * Also you won't be able to verify those method as well. *
  6. *
*

* See examples in javadoc for {@link Mockito} class * *

Note that the spy won't have any annotations of the spied type, because CGLIB won't rewrite them. * It may troublesome for code that rely on the spy to have these annotations.

* This method, in contrast to the original {@link #spy(Object)}, creates a spy based on class instead of an object. * Sometimes it is more convenient to create spy based on the class and avoid providing an instance of a spied object. * This is particularly useful for spying on abstract classes because they cannot be instantiated. * See also {@link MockSettings#useConstructor()}. *

* Warning, ignoreStubs() might lead to overuse of verifyNoMoreInteractions(ignoreStubs(...)); * Bear in mind that Mockito does not recommend bombarding every test with verifyNoMoreInteractions() * for the reasons outlined in javadoc for {@link Mockito#verifyNoMoreInteractions(Object...)} * Other words: all *stubbed* methods of given mocks are marked *verified* so that they don't get in a way during verifyNoMoreInteractions(). *

* This method changes the input mocks! This method returns input mocks just for convenience. *

* Ignored stubs will also be ignored for verification inOrder, including {@link com.fitbur.mockito.InOrder#verifyNoMoreInteractions()}. * See the second example. *

* Example: *


     *  //mocking lists for the sake of the example (if you mock List in real you will burn in hell)
     *  List mock1 = mock(List.class), mock2 = mock(List.class);
     *

     *  when(mock1.get(0)).thenReturn(10);
     *  when(mock2.get(0)).thenReturn(20);
     *
     *  //using mocks by calling stubbed get(0) methods:
     *  System.out.println(mock1.get(0)); //prints 10
     *  System.out.println(mock2.get(0)); //prints 20
     *
     *  //using mocks by calling clear() methods:
     *  mock1.clear();
     *  mock2.clear();
     *
     *  //verification:
     *  verify(mock1).clear();
     *  verify(mock2).clear();
     *
     *  //verifyNoMoreInteractions() fails because get() methods were not accounted for.
     *  try { verifyNoMoreInteractions(mock1, mock2); } catch (NoInteractionsWanted e);

     *  verifyNoMoreInteractions(ignoreStubs(mock1, mock2));

* validateMockitoUsage() explicitly validates the framework state to detect invalid use of Mockito. * However, this feature is optional because Mockito validates the usage all the time... but there is a gotcha so read on. *

* Examples of incorrect use: *


     * //Oops, thenReturn() part is missing:
     * when(mock.get());
     *
     * //Oops, verified method call is inside verify() where it should be on the outside:
     * verify(mock.execute());
     *
     * //Oops, missing method to verify:
     * verify(mock);
     * 
* * Mockito throws exceptions if you misuse it so that you know if your tests are written correctly. * The gotcha is that Mockito does the validation next time you use the framework (e.g. next time you verify, stub, call mock etc.). * But even though the exception might be thrown in the next test, * the exception message contains a navigable stack trace element with location of the defect. * Hence you can click and find the place where Mockito was misused. *

* Sometimes though, you might want to validate the framework usage explicitly. * For example, one of the users wanted to put validateMockitoUsage() in his @After method * so that he knows immediately when he misused Mockito. * Without it, he would have known about it not sooner than next time he used the framework. * One more benefit of having validateMockitoUsage() in @After is that jUnit runner and rule will always fail in the test method with defect * whereas ordinary 'next-time' validation might fail the next test method. * But even though JUnit might report next test as red, don't worry about it * and just click at navigable stack trace element in the exception message to instantly locate the place where you misused mockito. *

* Both built-in runner: {@link MockitoJUnitRunner} and rule: {@link MockitoRule} do validateMockitoUsage() after each test method. *

* Bear in mind that usually you don't have to validateMockitoUsage() * and framework validation triggered on next-time basis should be just enough, * mainly because of enhanced exception message with clickable location of defect. * However, I would recommend validateMockitoUsage() if you already have sufficient test infrastructure * (like your own runner or base class for all tests) because adding a special action to @After has zero cost. *

* See examples in javadoc for {@link Mockito} class */ public static void validateMockitoUsage() { MOCKITO_CORE.validateMockitoUsage(); } /** * Allows mock creation with additional mock settings. *

* Don't use it too often. * Consider writing simple tests that use simple mocks. * Repeat after me: simple tests push simple, KISSy, readable & maintainable code. * If you cannot write a test in a simple way - refactor the code under test. *
