Scala specs2 mocking a trait method returns always Nullpointer exception

问题

I have a trait that I want to mock and use that mocked Trait in another Service during testing. The problem is, that I receive a Nullpointerexception when I try to mock the return value of the indexDocuments function.

Testmethod:

"createDemand must return None if writing to es fails" in new WithApplication {
  val demandDraft = DemandDraft(UserId("1"), "socken bekleidung wolle", Location(Longitude(52.468562), Latitude(13.534212)), Distance(30), Price(25.0), Price(77.0))
  val es = mock[ElasticsearchClient]
  val sphere = mock[SphereClient]
  val productTypes = mock[ProductTypes]

  sphere.execute(any[ProductCreateCommand]) returns Future.successful(product)
  productTypes.demand returns ProductTypeBuilder.of("demand", ProductTypeDrafts.demand).build()
  // this line throws the nullpointer exception
  es.indexDocument(any[IndexName], any[TypeName], any[JsValue]) returns Future.failed(new RuntimeException("test exception"))

  val demandService = new DemandService(es, sphere, productTypes)
  demandService.createDemand(demandDraft) must be (Option.empty[Demand]).await
}

Trait:

sealed trait ElasticsearchClient {
  implicit def convertListenableActionFutureToScalaFuture[T](x: ListenableActionFuture[T]): Future[T] = {
    val p = Promise[T]()
    x.addListener(new ActionListener[T] {
      def onFailure(e: Throwable) = p.failure(e)
      def onResponse(response: T) = p.success(response)
    })
    p.future
  }

  lazy val client = createElasticsearchClient()
  def close(): Unit
  def createElasticsearchClient(): Client

  def indexDocument(esIndex: IndexName, esType: TypeName, doc: JsValue): Future[IndexResponse] =
    client.prepareIndex(esIndex.value, esType.value).setSource(doc.toString()).execute()
  def search(esIndex: IndexName, esType: TypeName, query: QueryBuilder): Future[SearchResponse] =
    client.prepareSearch(esIndex.value).setTypes(esType.value).setQuery(query).execute()
}

Exception

[error]    NullPointerException:   (DemandServiceSpec.scala:89)

I found out that the any[] Matchers in the indexDocuments call are the problem. When I replace them with the actual values it works:

"createDemand must return None if writing to es fails and deleteDemand should be called once with correct parameters" in new WithApplication {
  val demandDraft = DemandDraft(UserId("1"), "socken bekleidung wolle", Location(Longitude(52.468562), Latitude(13.534212)), Distance(30), Price(25.0), Price(77.0))
  val es = mock[ElasticsearchClient]
  val sphere = mock[SphereClient]
  val productTypes = mock[ProductTypes]

  sphere.execute(any[ProductCreateCommand]) returns Future.successful(product)
  sphere.execute(any[ProductDeleteByIdCommand]) returns Future.successful(product)
  productTypes.demand returns ProductTypeBuilder.of("demand", ProductTypeDrafts.demand).build()
  es.indexDocument(IndexName("demands"), TypeName("demands"), Json.toJson(demand)) returns Future.failed(new RuntimeException("test exception"))

  val demandService = new DemandService(es, sphere, productTypes)
  demandService.createDemand(demandDraft) must be (Option.empty[Demand]).await
}

I've had this happen a whole bunch and work around it by creating a class (rather than a trait) to feed to mock:

trait SomeTraitYouWantToMock {
  …
}
class MockableSomeTraitYouWantToMock extends SomeTraitYouWantToMock
val whatever = mock[MockableSomeTraitYouWantToMock]
