ArgumentMatchers not working for Mockito.mockStatic

[nicolasmafra]

When I do a mockStatic with argument matchers like this:

var mockedRequestClass = Mockito.mockStatic(RequestClass.class);
mockedRequestClass.when(() -> RequestClass.sendRequest(mockedUrl, any(), any())).thenReturn(null);

Mockito throws the following exception:
org.mockito.exceptions.misusing.MissingMethodInvocationException: when() requires an argument which has to be 'a method call on a mock'.

How can I use argument matchers with Mockito.mockStatic? Shouldn't that be possible?

Note: if I remove ArgumentMatchers no exceptions are thrown.

@nickmafra try using matchers for all the params (see the added eq matcher below):

var mockedRequestClass = Mockito.mockStatic(RequestClass.class);
mockedRequestClass.when(() -> RequestClass.sendRequest(eq(mockedUrl), any(), any())).thenReturn(null);

When using traditional mocks, it'll tell you to use matchers for all the params when at least one of them uses a matcher. My hunch is it's the same for MockedStatic and the exception you're getting is misleading because it swallowed the root cause of the issue.

Sounds like we should update mockStatic to behave similar to the others, where we validate the argument matchers. PRs welcome!

Hi @TimvdLippe , I think the issue comes from here:
https://github.com/mockito/mockito/blob/main/src/main/java/org/mockito/internal/MockedStaticImpl.java#L48-L60

The validation is happening but ignored. Not sure why, but this could fix it if we want to keep the catch Throwable for backwards compatibility:

        try {
            verification.apply();
        } catch (MockitoException exception) {
            throw exception;
        } catch (Throwable ignored) {
        }

What do you think?

In my case, I had to pass Integer. any() didn't work. I had to use anyInt() for some reason
