Whataremocks?
Mocksormockobjectssimulatethebehaviorof
complex,real(nonmock)objectsandare

orimpossibletoincorporateintoaunittest.
Theyprovide:

HowtoMockinMockito
@MockBookDaomockedBookDao
BookDaomockedBookDao=mock(BookDao.class);
ThiswillmockallmethodsinBookDaoclassandprovide
defaultvalues.
Initializeannotatedmocks...
AnnotateJunitTestclasswith:
@RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class)
OR
Addlinebelowtosetupmethod:
MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
Stubbing
StubbingisaddingcannedresponsetoMockobjectmethods.
Examples:
1) when(list.get(0)).thenReturn('Hello');
2) when(mockedMap.get(key).thenReturn(someValue);
3) doThrow(newIllegalStateException(Illegal).when(dao).get(1L);
Verifybehavior
Verifyhelpsverifythatcertainmethodswerecalledn
timesorwerenevercalled.
Example:
1)Defaultis1.
2)times(n)
Verifybehavior(cont'd)
1) atLeastOnce()
2) atLeast(n)
3) atMost(n))
4) verifyZeroInteractions(mock1,mock2,...);
Verifybehavior(cont'd)
verifyZeroInteractions(mockTwo,mockThree);
Verify(inOrder)OrderProcessServiceTest

StubbingExceptions
Stubbingexceptions:
when(mockedDao.get(1).thenThrow(new
RunTimeException());
doThrow(new
IllegalStateException(Illegal).when(mockDao).remove
