How can I use Mockito with the Spring Testing Framework?

You can use Mockito to create mock objects in your Spring tests, allowing you to isolate the components you're testing.

Can you show me a simple example of a test using Mockito in a Spring application?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@SpringBootTest
public class MyServiceTest {

    @Mock
    private MyRepository myRepository;

    @InjectMocks
    private MyService myService;

    @Test
    public void testMyServiceMethod() {
        when(myRepository.findData()).thenReturn(new Data());
        Data result = myService.myServiceMethod();
        assertNotNull(result);
    }
}

What annotations do I need to use Mockito with Spring?

You typically use @RunWith(SpringRunner.class) for the test runner, @SpringBootTest for the Spring context, @Mock for mocks, and @InjectMocks to inject those mocks into your service.

Are there any best practices for using Mockito in Spring tests?

Yes, some best practices include keeping your tests focused, using meaningful names for your mocks, and avoiding complex logic in your tests.
