How do I use Mockito for unit testing in Java?

Mockito is a popular mocking framework for Java. You can use it to create mock objects for your unit tests.

Can you show me a simple example of how to mock a method?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

import static org.mockito.Mockito.*;

public class MyTest {
    @Test
    public void testMyMethod() {
        MyClass myClass = mock(MyClass.class);
        when(myClass.myMethod()).thenReturn("Mocked Result");
        assertEquals("Mocked Result", myClass.myMethod());
    }
}

What if I want to verify that a method was called?

You can use the verify method. For example:

verify(myClass).myMethod();
``` This checks if `myMethod` was called on the mock.

Are there any best practices for using Mockito?

Yes, some best practices include keeping your tests independent, using meaningful names for mocks, and avoiding complex setups.
