Which Maven artifacts should I use to import PowerMock?

Question

What jars do I need to add to my pom.xml to get PowerMock working with Mockito? I have the following dependencies:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
    <artifactId>mockito-all</artifactId>
    <version>1.9.0</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.powermock</groupId>
    <artifactId>powermock-api-mockito</artifactId>
    <version>1.4.11</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.powermock</groupId>
    <artifactId>powermock-api-support</artifactId>
    <version>1.4.11</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
 </dependency>

but when I add the @PrepareForTest annotation at class level, Eclipse cannot find it, but it can find PowerMockito. What jar am I missing?

Answer 1

According to the Mockito_Maven page on the PowerMock wiki, use this:

<properties>
    <powermock.version>1.6.6</powermock.version>
</properties>
<dependencies>
   <dependency>
      <groupId>org.powermock</groupId>
      <artifactId>powermock-module-junit4</artifactId>
      <version>${powermock.version}</version>
      <scope>test</scope>
   </dependency>
   <dependency>
      <groupId>org.powermock</groupId>
      <artifactId>powermock-api-mockito</artifactId>
      <version>${powermock.version}</version>
      <scope>test</scope>
   </dependency>
</dependencies>

powermock-api-support seems to be "utility classes only", where you still need the core libraries provided in powermock-module-junit4.

Answer 2

Make sure you have this import:

import org.powermock.core.classloader.annotations.PrepareForTest;

This jar has it:

• powermock-mockito-1.5.1-full.jar

Answer 3

You are writting:

    @PrepareForTest(Class.class);

Instead of:

    @PrepareForTest(Class.class)

I had exactly the same issue and solved it that way.

Answer 4

Download the Mockito dependency zip file apart from your powermock-module-junit4 & powermock-api-mockito dependecies. Add that jars directly in your project it should work and configure your pom accordingly.
