EasyMock: Mock out a constructor call in java

Question

I have a looked at similar questions on this board, but none of them answer my question. This sound strange, but is it possible to mock out a constructor call on the object

Answer 1

You can't do this with easymock, as it doesn't support mocking constructors. There's a library called powermock which can do that and is the only mocking library, as far as I know, that can stub constructors and static methods in Java.
