Method threw 'org.mockito.exceptions.misusing.InvalidUseOfMatchersException' exception. - unit-testing

I'm trying to test this method, however I am getting the following error:
Method threw 'org.mockito.exceptions.misusing.InvalidUseOfMatchersException' exception.
On this line of
Code:
when(tester.method(
any(String.class), any(LocalDate.class), any(boolean.class),any(boolean.class), any(String.class))).thenReturn(item);

There are already built-in matchers for most of the types you are using.
when(tester.method(anyString(), any(LocalDate.class), anyBoolean(),anyBoolean(), anyString()))
.thenReturn(item);
Reference Class ArgumentMatchers
For primitive types use any{Type}() family.

I would say you shouldn't be using boolean.class, since lower case boolean is a primitive, and doesn't return a java.lang object.
Use Boolean.class, or anyBoolean()

Testing Behavior equality in Akka Typed

In a test I want to assert that a certain (parameterized) Behavior is returned by a kind of factory method. How can I do that?
def myBehavior(param: Int) = Behaviors.receiveMessage { ... }
When I call myBehavior twice, I get two different objects (which is what I would expect) but they are not equal.
I thought about making a case class that extends ExtensibleBehavior. However, I don't know how to delegate to a behavior defined using the Behaviors DSL. Apart from that I don't like the indirection that is introduced by the additional class.
Is there an elegant solution for this problem?

MediatR gets multiple handlers instances when expected single

I'm using Generic Type Requests and Handlers.If I have more than one IAsyncRequestHandler DryIoc is resolving multiple instances, instead of a single instance, causing MediatR to throw an exception.How can I solve this problem?Please check this behavior at Net Fiddle here.(Note that in this example Generic Type is only used to prove the point - MediatR throwing the exception - In my production code, Generic Types are actually needed)
The fix for your problem is out with DryIoc 2.10.1.
The reason details are in issue #446.
Update:
Regarding sample with class GoodMorningRequestHandler<T> : IAsyncRequestHandler<GoodMorningRequest, string> the exception is bit misleading but it is here as expected.
Reason is that above mapping is not registered at all by DryIoc RegisterMany. It happens because RegisterMany checks that service type (IAsyncRequestHandler<GoodMorningRequest, string>) should supply open-generic parameter T for implementation GoodMorningRequestHandler<T>, and obviously it cannot do that. Therefore this service type is filtered out.
After that, the remaining implementation would be HelloRequestHandler<T> which does not match to resolved IAsyncRequestHandler<GoodMorningRequest, string>, so the exception.
To confirm for yourself try to just register explicitly:
container.Register(typeof(IAsyncRequestHandler<GoodMorningRequest, string>), typeof(GoodMorningRequestHandler<>)). It will throw the exception. In comparison RegisterMany designed to be more tolerant, therefore it will just skip this pair.

EasyMock test case failed saying method called incorrectly

Does anyone know what the numbers 5b40c281 and 78a1d1f4 mean in the EasyMock test case fail shown below?
Are they essentially address pointers to two different instances of PdlPrintJob?
Does anyone know why this fail is occurring?
In the main code, PdlPrintJob is constructed (using new PdlPrintJob()) and passed as a parameter to method printer.executePrintJob().
In the test case, PdlPrintJob is constructed (using new PdlPrintJob()) and passed as a parameter to mockPrinter.executePrintJob().
Thanks for any advice,
Best regards

junit.framework.AssertionFailedError:
Unexpected method call executePrintJob(com.canon.cel.meap.jobs.PdlPrintJob#5b40c281, EasyMock for interface com.canon.meap.security.AccessControlToken):
executePrintJob(com.canon.cel.meap.jobs.PdlPrintJob#5b40c281, EasyMock for interface com.canon.meap.security.AccessControlToken): expected: 0, actual: 1
executePrintJob(com.canon.cel.meap.jobs.PdlPrintJob#78a1d1f4, EasyMock for interface com.canon.meap.security.AccessControlToken): expected: 1, actual: 0
Its because you have done something like this in your test class.
EasyMock.expect(executePrintJob(new PdlPrintJob(),....))'
but actually it should have been a mockObject that you should have passed as parameter.
you need to do something like this
PdlPrintJob pdlPrintJob=Easymock.createNiceMock(PdlPrintJob.class);
Powermock.expectNew(PdlPrintJob).andReturn(pdlPrintJob).anyTimes(); //this will return the mocked instance of PDlPrintJob class wherever 'new' operator is used for this class
EasyMock.expect(executePrintJob(pdlPrintJob,.....)).andReturn(anythingYouWantToReturn).anyTimes(); // have added '.....' in case there are other parameters to this method
EasyMock.replay(pdlPrintJob);
Powermock.replayAll();
You were facing the issue because Easymock is a strict mocking framework, you had asked it to expect a particular method with particular object type only (its like tightly binding method expectation to a single object), and during execution as new operator was used the method expectation failed as object parameters didnt match the expectation of Easymock, resulting in this exception.
I always prefer doing something like this for method expectation
if my method to be tested is
public String compress(String str, Integer intr, double ch){}
I expect this method in easymock as follows:
EasyMock.expect(compress(EasyMock.anyObject(String.class),EasyMock.anyObject(Integer.class),EasyMock.anyDouble())).andReturn("Done compressing").anyTimes();
so by this approach my method expectation works for any valid parameters passed to my compress() method during test case execution.
Hope that helps!
Good luck!

OCMock stub for method's pass-by-reference argument

I have a method that I need to stub. The method is of the form below:
BOOL myMethodWithError:(*__autoreleasing *NSError)error;
So I mocked the object and attempted to return a nil back through 'error'. I coded it as follows.
id mockMyObject = [OCMockObject mockForClass:[MyObject class]];
BOOL retVal = YES;
NSError *error = nil;
[[[mockMyObject stub] andReturn:OCMOCK_VALUE(retVal)] myMethodWithError:&error];
When the test is run and the mock object is operated, the error reference id appears to change. So the mock throws an exception:
OCMockObject[MyObject]: expected method invoked:
myMethodWithError:0xbfffca78
I have tried a number of different ways but each time the pointer value appears to change once the error object is passed to the method which causes the mock object to throw an error.
I simply need to test my business rules against the pass-by-reference value of the argument, but I can't seem to get the mock or test object to cooperate.
Thanks in advance, any help will be greatly appreciated.
Apart from the solutions Ben mentions in his answer(I only tested the one based on ignoringNonObjectArgs, and it works fine), I prefer to use [OCMArg anyPointer] with the appropriate cast:
[[[myMock stub] andReturn:something] someMethod:(NSError * __autoreleasing *)[OCMArg anyPointer]];
Use ignoringNonObjectArgs
[[[[mock stub] andReturnValue:OCMOCK_VALUE((BOOL){YES})] ignoringNonObjectArgs] myMethodWithError:NULL];
From http://ocmock.org/features/
Arguments that are neither objects nor pointers or selectors cannot be
ignored using an any placeholder. It is possible, though, to tell the
mock to ignore all non-object arguments in an invocation:
[[[mock expect] ignoringNonObjectArgs] someMethodWithIntArgument:0]
In this
case the mock will accept any invocation of someMethodWithIntArgument:
no matter what argument is actually passed. If the method has object
arguments as well as non-object arguments, the object arguments can
still be constrained as usual using the methods on OCMArg.
Bonus Answer
This would also solve your issue:
[[[mock stub] andReturnValue:OCMOCK_VALUE((BOOL){YES})] myMethodWithError:[OCMArg setTo:nil]];

Why does Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting.Assert.Equals() exist?

Description for Assert.Equals() from the MSDN Documentation:
Do not use this method.
That's it, the full explanation. Uh.. ok, but then ... why is it there?
Is it a deprecated method from an earlier version of the framework? Something that's supposed to be used only by other Microsoft Assemblies?
It just makes me want to use it all the more knowing I'm not supposed to. ;-)
Does anyone know?
.Equals is inherited from object. It's listed as "Do not use this method" so users won't confuse it with the AreEqual method.
All objects in .NET derive from Object.
Object has a .Equals() method.
Apparently the .Equals() method for this particular object doesn't do anything useful, so the docs are warning you that it doesn't do anything useful.
It was changed in 2008 (Maybe SP1) to fail a test when called, so that people who were using it by accident were told they really shouldn't be using it.
Assert.Equals, just like its based class method Object.Equals, is perfectly useful for comparing objects. However, neither method is useful for stand-alone detection and reporting or errors in unit testing, since Object.Equals returns a boolean rather than throws if the values are not equal. This is a problem if used like this in a unit test:
Assert.Equals(42, ComputeMeaningOfLife());
Aside from the problem of this unit test possibly running too long :-), this test would silently succeed even if the Compute method provides the wrong result. The right method to use is Assert.AreEqual, which doesn't return anything, but throws an exception if the parameters aren't equal.
Assert.Equals was added so code like in the sample above doesn't fall back to Object.Equals and silently neuter the unit test. Instead, when called from a unit test, Assert.Equals always throws an exception reminding you not to use it.
