Overview of this book

This is a focused guide with lots of practical recipes with presentations of business issues and presentation of the whole test of the system. This book shows the use of Mockito's popular unit testing frameworks such as JUnit, PowerMock, TestNG, and so on. If you are a software developer with no testing experience (especially with Mockito) and you want to start using Mockito in the most efficient way then this book is for you. This book assumes that you have a good knowledge level and understanding of Java-based unit testing frameworks.

In the previous two chapters, you've been shown how to stub the mocked object's behavior in a number of ways. You can also see the verification approach that favors the assertion of what should happen instead of how it should happen, by telling you to verify the behavior, if possible, and not the implementation.

The preceding suggestion always starts heated discussions. Martin Fowler, in his article, Mocks aren't Stubs (http://martinfowler.com/articles/mocksArentStubs.html) defines that in general, there are two approaches in terms of verification: verifying state and verifying behavior. A part of this article is about coupling tests to the implementation. Fowler talks about one of the key problems behind such a binding of tests to the actual code—the interference in refactoring. Having such brittle tests could make them fail each time you refactor, even though the final behavior remains the same.

The importance of refactoring as an indispensable process...
