Mockito doReturn（）。when（）调用原始方法

Question

I can't get Mockito to override a method in the class I am testing.

@Test
public void test_classToTest() throws Exception {
    DependencyA dependencyA = mock(DependencyA.class);
    DependencyB dependencyB = mock(DependencyB.class);
    DependencyC dependencyC = mock(DependencyC.class);

    ClassToTest classToTest = ClassToTest.builder().dependencyA(dependencyA)
            .dependencyB(dependencyB).dependencyC(dependencyC).build();

    classToTest= Mockito.spy(classToTest);

    Mockito.doReturn("This is not the method you are looking for").when(classToTest).storeContent(null, null, null);

    String result = classToTest.copyContent(someVariable, SOME_CONSTANT);

The method I am trying to override is classToTest.storeContent() which is called from inside classToTest.copyContent(). I am aware that this class is a little smelly, but I am not in a position to refactor it. However, this is not a very complicated setup and I am not sure why the actual .storeContent() method is getting called.

Answer 1

Instead of using the null parameters to setup the mocked storeContent method I would suggest using ArgumentMatchers.any

Eg

import static org.mockito.ArgumentMatchers.*;

// ...

Mockito.doReturn("This is not the method you are looking for").when(classToTest).storeContent(any(), any(), any());

Answer 2

There is a limitation in Mockito (and other mocking tools), that final methods cannot be stubbed.

Maybe your ClassToTest#storeContent is marked as final ?

If this is the case, just remove the final keyword, and the stubbing mechanism should kick-in.
