When I am running a unit test for below class, I am getting NullPointerException where indicated by the comments. I have a feeling that I am missing something simple here. I am using Mockito 1.9.5 and none of the mocked methods are final.
public class UserBOTest {
@Mock private IUserDAO userDao;
@InjectMocks private IUserBO userBo = new UserBO();
@Test
public void testRegister() throws DBException {
when(userDao.doesEmailExist(any(String.class))).thenReturn(false); //NULLPOINTEREXCEPTION HERE
when(userDao.saveOrUpdate(Matchers.<User>any())).thenReturn(true);
Assert.assertEquals(userBo.registerUser("user", "pwd", "email", ""), Constants.General.OK);
}
}
Stack trace:
java.lang.NullPointerException

Your userDao
is null. You need to tell Mockito to actually inject the mocks declared in the test by doing
@Before
public void prepare() {
MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
}
Remember that annotations are only metadata. They don't do anything. A tool can use them to do something thanks to them. In this case, this tool is MockitoAnnotations.initMocks()
, which reads the fields of the test object, inspect annotations, and creates/inject mocks.
Since it appears your mock object itself is null, I'm guessing you're missing some initialization.
In order to use the @Mock
annotation, you need somewhere in your test or in your test runner, you need to have a call that initializes the mock annotations:
MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(testClass);
If you use a MockitoJUnitRunner
this should be done for you.
Your userDao is likely null because you are missing the following:
MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
The above call it required for the @Mock annotation to work. See: http://docs.mockito.googlecode.com/hg/org/mockito/Mockito.html#9
