Mockito matcher and array of primitives

Question

With Mockito, I want to verify() a method call with byte[] in its argument list, but I didn\'t find how to write this.

 myMethod( byte[         


        

Answer 1

I agree with Mutanos and Alecio. Further, one can check as many identical method calls as possible (verifying the subsequent calls in the production code, the order of the verify's does not matter). Here is the code:

import static org.mockito.AdditionalMatchers.*;

    verify(mockObject).myMethod(aryEq(new byte[] { 0 }));
    verify(mockObject).myMethod(aryEq(new byte[] { 1, 2 }));

Answer 2

I would try any(byte[].class)

Answer 3

You can always create a custom Matcher using argThat

Mockito.verify(yourMockHere).methodCallToBeVerifiedOnYourMockHere(ArgumentMatchers.argThat(new ArgumentMatcher<Object>() {
    @Override
    public boolean matches(Object argument) {
        YourTypeHere[] yourArray = (YourTypeHere[]) argument;
        // Do whatever you like, here is an example:
        if (!yourArray[0].getStringValue().equals("first_arr_val")) {
            return false;
        }
        return true;
    }
}));

Answer 4

What works for me was org.mockito.ArgumentMatchers.isA

for example:

isA(long[].class)

that works fine.

the implementation difference of each other is:

public static <T> T any(Class<T> type) {
    reportMatcher(new VarArgAware(type, "<any " + type.getCanonicalName() + ">"));
    return Primitives.defaultValue(type);
}

public static <T> T isA(Class<T> type) {
    reportMatcher(new InstanceOf(type));
    return Primitives.defaultValue(type);
}

Answer 5

I used Matchers.refEq for this.

Answer 6

Try this:

AdditionalMatchers.aryEq(array);
