how to mock a URL connection

Question

Hi I have a method that takes an URL as an input and determines if it is reachable. Heres the code for that:

public static boolean isUrlAccessible(final Str         


        

Answer 1

You can mock new Url instance with

whenNew(URL.class)..

Make sure you return a previously created mock object from that whenNew call.

URL mockUrl = Mockito.mock(URL.class);
whenNew(URL.class).....thenReturn(mockUrl );

Then you can add behavior to your mock as you want.
