Mocking Joda DateTime method using Mockito

Question

I want millis to return specified value.

public long myMethod(){
    DateTime nowDateTime = new DateTime(DateTimeZone.UTC);
    long millis = no         


        

Answer 1

Just use the org.joda.time.DateTimeUtils#setCurrentMillisFixed method of JodaTime which was designed to fix new DateTime() to a different time than the current time. To return to the normal time use org.joda.time.DateTimeUtils#setCurrentMillisSystem afterwards. No mocking needed.

@Test
public void test() {
DateTimeUtils.setCurrentMillisFixed(10L);
// .. your code
}

@After
public void cleanup() {
// Make sure to cleanup afterwards
DateTimeUtils.setCurrentMillisSystem()
}
