  • Best practices for Unit Testing Android Apps with Mockk, Kotest and others
    5 projects | dev.to | 10 May 2023
    As you can see, I create mockUsersRepository object using mock( function. Then, in setup() method, I set up this repository in such a way so that it would return a list of hardcoded values. After this, on top of everything else, I check if, for mockUsersRepository object, getUsers method was called with verify function, in the test method. It’s important to note that Mockito is a very old framework and was originally written for Java. When Kotlin appeared, it turned out that out of the box this framework can work with some limitations, which is why an extension, mockito-kotlin, was released. The example above was written with it. Another Mockito’s limitation was that it was impossible to mock final classes and static methods, and all classes are final by default in Kotlin. Currently, this is solved through mockito-inline but, before, it was a serious limitation. In respect to Java development, there was and is an alternative for Android developers, PowerMock.

    In the demo project, I used junit and mockito. One thing we need to pre-learn do the unit test, that is ksp class diagram.

    What's wrong with Mockito for Kotlin?
  • From Java to Kotlin. There and back again

    Mockito does not work correctly with Kotlin types out of the box. Spring recommends using Mockk. There is also a special module for Mockito, which adds support for Kotlin - Mockito-Kotlin.
