java - How to write a matcher that is not equal to something

Question

I am trying to create a mock for a call. Say I have this method I am trying to stub out:

class ClassA {
  public String getString(String a) {
    return a + "hey";
  }
}

What I am trying to mock out is: 1st instance is

when(classA.getString(eq("a")).thenReturn(...);`

in the same test case

when(classA.getString([anything that is not a])).thenReturn(somethingelse);

The 2nd case is my question: How do I match anyString() other than "a"?

Answer 1

With Mockito framework, you can use AdditionalMatchers

ClassA classA = Mockito.mock(ClassA.class);
Mockito.when(classA.getString(Matchers.eq("a"))).thenReturn("something"); 
Mockito.when(classA.getString(AdditionalMatchers.not(Matchers.eq("a")))).thenReturn("something else");

Hope it helps.
