Parameter specified as non null is null

Mockito often returns null
when calling methods like any()
, eq()
etcetera. Passing these instances to methods that are not properly mocked, can cause NullPointerExceptions
:
open class Foo {
fun bar(s: String) { }
}
@Test
fun myTest() {
whenever(foo.bar(any())) // This fails, since null is passed to bar.
}
Since the bar
method is not marked open
, it is final and Mockito cannot mock it. As a consequence, the method is executed when calling bar(any())
. Since Kotlin inserts null-checks, an NPE is thrown.
To solve this, mark bar
as open
or use mock-maker-inline
.
(warning: inline mocking has a ~3x performance penalty)
