Answer 1

New feature added to Mockito makes this even easier,

ArgumentCaptor<Person> argument = ArgumentCaptor.forClass(Person.class);
verify(mock).doSomething(argument.capture());
assertEquals("John", argument.getValue().getName());

Take a look at Mockito documentation

---

In case when there are more than one parameters, and capturing of only single param is desired, use other ArgumentMatchers to wrap the rest of the arguments:

verify(mock).doSomething(eq(someValue), eq(someOtherValue), argument.capture());
assertEquals("John", argument.getValue().getName());

Answer 2

I think the easiest way for verifying an argument object is to use the refEq method:

Mockito.verify(mockedObject).someMethodOnMockedObject(ArgumentMatchers.refEq(objectToCompareWith));

It can be used even if the object doesn't implement equals(), because reflection is used. If you don't want to compare some fields, just add their names as arguments for refEq.
