Issue
I am learning the MVP architecture that google uses in their android codelabs. I have set up a simple example. Two input fields and a "+" button to show the addition result. The view is the main activity and I have a presenter that calls a service to add the two input values. The view passes itself to the presenter in the onCreate method and keeps a reference of the presenter as well.
View Interface:
public interface MainView {
String getFirstInput();
void showFirstInputError(int resId);
String getSecondInput();
void showSecondInputError(int resId);
void setResultText(int result);
}
Presenter method that is called when the button is pressed:
public void onResultClicked(){
String firstInput = view.getFirstInput();
String secondInput = view.getSecondInput();
if(firstInput.isEmpty()) {
view.showFirstInputError(R.string.num_input_error);
return;
}
if(secondInput.isEmpty()) {
view.showSecondInputError(R.string.num_input_error);
return;
}
Service service = new Service();
int result = service.add(Integer.getInteger(firstInput),
Integer.getInteger(secondInput));
view.setResultText(result);
}
Test:
@Test
public void shouldPopulateResultWhenButtonIsClicked() throws Exception {
when(view.getFirstInput()).thenReturn("3");
when(view.getSecondInput()).thenReturn("3");
when(service.add(3,3)).thenReturn(6);
presenter.onResultClicked();
verify(service).add(3,3);
verify(view).setResultText(6);
}
I get an error on the line the service is trying to add the two inputs.
presenter.onResultClicked();
int result = service.add(Integer.getInteger(firstInput),
Integer.getInteger(secondInput));
Can somebody please help. Thanks.

Solution
It doesn't have anything to do with Android, Mockito or MVP, you're running a jUnit test, it's pure Java.
It's just a NullPointerException
, nothing else. Go to line 29 of MainPresenter.java
, add a breakpoint and launch the test in debug mode to see which method call is made on a null reference. Extract variables from chained calls if necessary.
I suspect that service.add(...)
returns an java.lang.Integer
and you're assigning it to an int
. If it returns null, the unboxing will get you a NullPointerException
at this line. Try assigning the return value to an Integer
and debug the value. It may be null.
See this post for more information about unboxing of null values.
Hope this helps.
