Mock private static final field using mockito or Jmockit


I am using private static final LOGGER field in my class and I want LOGGER.isInfoEnabled() method to return false. How can I mock the static final field by using mockito or jMockit

My class is:

  import org.slf4j.Logger;
  import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

  public class Class1 {

  private static final Logger LOGGER = LoggerFactory.getLogger(Class1.class);

    public boolean demoMethod() {
       System.out.println("Demo started");
       if (LOGGER.isInfoEnabled()) {
         System.out.println("@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ ------- info is enabled");
       } else {
         System.out.println("info is disabled");
       }
       return LOGGER.isInfoEnabled();
    }
  }

and its junit is :

import mockit.Mocked;
import mockit.NonStrictExpectations;
import org.mockito.InjectMocks;
import org.mockito.MockitoAnnotations;
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.testng.annotations.BeforeMethod;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;

import static org.testng.Assert.*;
import com.source.Class1;

public class MyTest {

  @InjectMocks
  Class1 cls1;

  @BeforeMethod
  public void initMocks() {
    MockitoAnnotations.initMocks(this);
  }

  @Test
  public void test(@Mocked final Logger LOGGER) {

    new NonStrictExpectations() {
      {
        LOGGER.isInfoEnabled();
        result = false;
      }
    };
    assertFalse(cls1.demoMethod());
  }
}

when I run it the result is:

I am new to jmockit and I want my above junit case to run successfully. And I have to use JMockit or mockito, can't use Powermockito. Please help.


Solution

  • One way is using reflection get rid of final modifier from the field and then replace the LOGGER field with Mocked one

    public class Class1Test {
        @Test
        public void test() throws Exception {
            Logger logger = Mockito.mock(Logger.class);
            Mockito.when(logger.isInfoEnabled()).thenReturn(false);
            setFinalStatic(Class1.class.getDeclaredField("LOGGER"), logger);
            Class1 cls1 = new Class1();
            assertFalse(cls1.demoMethod());
        }
    
        static void setFinalStatic(Field field, Object newValue) throws Exception {
            field.setAccessible(true);        
            Field modifiersField = Field.class.getDeclaredField("modifiers");
            modifiersField.setAccessible(true);
            modifiersField.setInt(field, field.getModifiers() & ~Modifier.FINAL);
            field.set(null, newValue);
        }
    }
