Question

I\'m trying to mock the SecurityManager class. When I run the following code, Mockito throws an exception:

@After
public void tearDown()
{

PS! You could also mock static method call to getSecurityManager() method.

Mocking Static Method See maunal at http://code.google.com/p/powermock/wiki/MockitoUsage

Add @PrepareForTest at class level.

@PrepareForTest(System.class); // System.class contains static methods

Call PowerMockito.mockStatic() to mock a static class (use PowerMockito.mockStaticPartial(class, method) to mock a specific method):

PowerMockito.mockStatic(System.class);

Just use Mockito.when() to setup your expectation:

Mockito.when(System.getSecurityManager()).thenReturn(securityManagerMock);
