Spring + Mockito – Unable to mock save method?
Try to mock a repository save()
method, but it is always returning null?
P.S Tested with Spring Boot 2 + Spring Data JPA
@Test
public void save_book_OK() throws Exception {
Book newBook = new Book(1L, "Mockito Guide", "mkyong");
when(mockRepository.save(newBook)).thenReturn(newBook);
mockMvc.perform(post("/books")
.content("{json}")
.header(HttpHeaders.CONTENT_TYPE, MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON))
.andExpect(status().isCreated());
}
Solution
1. Mockito uses the equals
for argument matching, try using ArgumentMatchers.any
for the save
method.
import static org.mockito.ArgumentMatchers.any;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.*;
@Test
public void save_book_OK() throws Exception {
Book newBook = new Book(1L, "Mockito Guide", "mkyong");
when(mockRepository.save(any(Book.class))).thenReturn(newBook);
//...
}
2. Alternatively, implements both equals
and hashCode
for the Model.
package com.mkyong;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import java.math.BigDecimal;
@Entity
public class Book {
@Id
@GeneratedValue
private Long id;
private String name;
private String author;
//...
@Override
public boolean equals(Object o) {
if (this == o) return true;
if (o == null || getClass() != o.getClass()) return false;
Book book = (Book) o;
if (id != null ? !id.equals(book.id) : book.id != null) return false;
if (name != null ? !name.equals(book.name) : book.name != null) return false;
return author != null ? author.equals(book.author) : book.author == null;
}
@Override
public int hashCode() {
int result = id != null ? id.hashCode() : 0;
result = 31 * result + (name != null ? name.hashCode() : 0);
result = 31 * result + (author != null ? author.hashCode() : 0);
return result;
}
}
The above example does not work for auto generated IDs in the entity
This is beautiful. Thanks mate!
I was searching for almost a day and a half for my issue! This was the solution! Thank you!
I have the same issue with my repo mocked as below
but i still face the same error
my repo.save() returns null.
Thank buddy was not able to figure out from 1 day how to solve my issues but after reading this article of yours just washed the exception out!! thank you.
doAnswer() worked for me, i tried above two solution but i still saw null pointer exception.
You saved me, I am trying to understand this problem for 3 days, I would never know it was that.
Welcome, I also spent several days for debugging (T_T)
Hi,
Here I am sharing my issue
employeeDAO.findById(id).orElseThrow(() -> new RuntimeException());
the above one is the CurdRepository query
I am mocking the the object using mockito
Mockito.when(employeeDAO.findById(id).orElseThrow(() -> new RuntimeException()))
.thenReturn(Optional.of(ce).orElseThrow(() -> new RuntimeException()));
but is java.lang.RuntimeException
