any() method in Mockito Spring Boot example
The any() method in Mockito is used as a matcher to specify that any value of a given type can be passed to a mocked method. 1️⃣ When to Use any()? When you don’t care about the exact argument value and just need to verify that the method was called. When dealing with dynamically generated values, such as randomly generated IDs, timestamps, or user input. 2️⃣ Spring Boot Example Using any() Scenario: We have an EmployeeService that adds an employee using an EmployeeRepository. Instead of checking for a specific Employee object, we use any(Employee.class) to verify the method was called.
