public class ParseProcessoTest {
private final String PATTERN_DATA_HORA = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss";
JSONObject jsonObject;

@Mock
ParseProcesso parseProcesso;

@Before
public void init(){
    jsonObject = new JSONObject("string qualquer");
    when(parseProcesso.movimentacaoTemAnexo(new JSONObject("outra string"))).thenReturn(false);
}

@Test
public void testaParse() throws IOException {
    ParseProcesso parseProcesso = new ParseProcesso(jsonObject);
    Processo processoTeste = parseProcesso.parse();

    //demais métodos

The class ParseProcesso receives in its constructor a jsonObject as parameter. There is no way to instantiate a mockada class, so when throws an exception. The test creates an instance of class ParseProcesso (but obviously it does not work) ... Does anyone have any idea what to do?

1 - Using @Spy / Mockito.spy ( )

Ex:

Constructor with parameter:

public class MyService {

  private String param;

  public MyService(String anyParam) {
    this.param = anyParam;
  }

  public String getParam() {
    return param;
  }

}

Test:

public class MyServiceTest {

  private String DEFAULT_STRING_VALUE = "any";

  @Test
  public void classInstanceShouldNotBeNull() {
    MyService service = Mockito.spy(new MyService("doesNotMatter"));
    Assert.assertNotNull(service);
  }

  @Test
  public void shouldReturnMyMockedString() {
    MyService service = Mockito.spy(new MyService("doesNotMatter"));
    Mockito.when(service.getParam()).thenReturn(DEFAULT_STRING_VALUE);
    Assert.assertEquals(DEFAULT_STRING_VALUE, service.getParam());
  }
}

2 - Using the Mockito extension of PowerMock

You could use the PoweMockito.whenNew () to return your mock every time a new instance of your class is created:

PowerMockito.whenNew(MyService.class).withArguments(Mockito.anyString()).thenReturn(myMock);

3 - Refactor your code to use Factory (maybe this help you with some other idea ).
