I don't have any experience with mockito, but you can try asking in #C9EJFT6DB

[ziggy42]

I saw the channel but it's not active 😕

[Ruckus]

Yeah, that's the sad reality of this slack. Lots of channels are more or less abandoned. Did you try #C0NBD4UF8?

[ziggy42]

I'll try now, thanks!

[neil.armstrong]

did you call MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this)? You need to do that for the @Mock annotation to work

[ziggy42]

Nope 😄

[ziggy42]

But it works for everything else

[neil.armstrong]

I usually prefer just mock<Type>() 🙂

[neil.armstrong]

also look at https://github.com/nhaarman/mockito-kotlin

[ziggy42]

Yes, I'm using this library, but why do I need to do it? I have tens of tests without calling initMocks

[neil.armstrong]

it isn’t open

[neil.armstrong]

mockito can only mock open functions and properties

[ziggy42]

I'm using kotlin-spring plugin

[neil.armstrong]

by default everything in kotlin is final and mockito cannot mock them (unless you configure it)

[neil.armstrong]

at least, I think that might be the issue 😮

[ziggy42]

It could be, but kotlin-spring makes everything open 😕

[ziggy42]

Also this test was passing before I converted the instance to extend an abstract class

[neil.armstrong]

hmm, I’ve never used kotlin-spring so didn’t know that

[neil.armstrong]

maybe kotlin-spring doesn’t do that for abstract classes?

[neil.armstrong]

try making it open and see what happens

[neil.armstrong]

though abstract should be open by default I would imagine, or else how do you override 😄

[ziggy42]

with open it works -.-

[ziggy42]

thanks!

[neil.armstrong]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[ziggy42]

But it's super ugly this way...

[neil.armstrong]

Maybe have a google around abstract with the kotlin-spring plugin, might be a known issue with workarounds

[jk]

doesn’t kotlin-spring just open the Spring-annotated classes, like @Component etc. ?
you can add mockito-inline to your test dependencies to allow you to mock final classes
