java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError - PowerMockito

Question

So I am trying to use PowerMockito in place of Mockito so I can mock a class that is final. However, after I switch over to PowerMockito, I get the following stackTrace when trying to mock any class:

And here is the setup method:

@RunWith(AndroidJUnit4.class)
@PrepareForTest(SettingsView.class)
public class SettingsTests {

  @Mock private SettingsView view;

  @Before
  public void setup() {
    view = mock(SettingsView.class);
  }

Does anyone know what could potentially be causing this? I have tried to change mock(SettingsView.class) to PowerMockito.mock(SettingsView.class) but I get the same result.

Also, view is an interface in this scenario.

You already mock SettingsView @Mock private SettingsView view;

Why are you double mocking it? @Mock and mock are the same.

Also you need to mock object not class itself.

took out the second declaration. still the same result – hermt2 Aug 15 '17 at 05:33
you need to remove `mock(SettingsView.class)`, you need to mock object not class itself – Ori Marko Aug 15 '17 at 05:35

I think you need to @RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class). For example:

@RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)
@PrepareForTest({SettingsView.class})
public class PowermockFinalClassTest {

    private SettingsView view;

    @Test
    public void testMockingStatic() {
        view = PowerMockito.mock(SettingsView.class);

        String expected = "mocked call";
        Mockito.when(view.getSomething()).thenReturn(expected);

        Assert.assertEquals(expected, view.getSomething());
    }
}

I did this, now I get the following error: `java.lang.IllegalStateException: Extension API internal error: org.powermock.api.extension.proxyframework.ProxyFrameworkImpl could not be located in classpath.` – hermt2 Aug 15 '17 at 14:54
This exception message tells you that your are missing a required class, perhaps you haven't included all the PowerMock libraries required for Android development in your project. Alternatively you may be encountering the issue described in [this question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15305490/how-to-use-powermock-in-android-projects). – glytching Aug 15 '17 at 15:04
Here are the powemock dependencies in my gradle file: `androidTestCompile "org.powermock:powermock-module-junit4:1.6.5"` `androidTestCompile "org.powermock:powermock-module-junit4-rule:1.6.5"` `androidTestCompile 'org.powermock:powermock-api-mockito:1.6.5'` – hermt2 Aug 15 '17 at 15:18
What version of Mockito are you using? What version of JUnit are you using? – glytching Aug 15 '17 at 15:22
my version of mockito is wrapped in `org.powermock:powermock-api-mockito:1.6.5` and I am using junit 4 – hermt2 Aug 15 '17 at 15:25
`powermock-api-mockito` does **not** wrap Mockito. You'll need to include the Mockito library too. Also, there are version compatability issues between PowerMock, Mockito and JUnit so the particular version of JUnit 4 is important. See the docs [here](https://github.com/powermock/powermock/wiki/Mockito-2-Maven) and [here](https://github.com/powermock/powermock/wiki/Mockito#supported-versions). – glytching Aug 15 '17 at 15:34
When I add this: `androidTestCompile 'org.mockito:mockito-android:2.7.22'` Then I get a build error saying that Duplicate files were copied in APK-mockito-extensions – hermt2 Aug 15 '17 at 15:42
This comment section is getting too long at this stage :) It's possible that your latest comment is addressed by this [answer](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35468896/using-powermock-and-mockito-in-an-android-instrumentation-test-error-duplica#39214994). Either way, I think the original question posted above has been answered by now. – glytching Aug 15 '17 at 15:45
