Difference between @Mock and @InjectMocks

manpreet Best Answer 3 years ago

_x000D_ @Mock creates a mock. @InjectMocks creates an instance of the class and injects the mocks that are created with the @Mock (or @Spy) annotations into this instance. Note that you must use @RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class) or Mockito.initMocks(this) to initialize these mocks and inject them. @RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class) public class SomeManagerTest { @InjectMocks private SomeManager someManager; @Mock private SomeDependency someDependency; // this will be injected into someManager //tests... }
