java.lang.AssertionError:expected: 1, actual: 0 spring webflow junit - junit4

Question

When I call method using EasyMock and set the expectation for the method call, in which method return result is Map.In my test case the return result is not taken by spring webflow. Method is expecting the RequestContext of spring webflow that is org.springframework.webflow.execution.RequestContext . I am trying to pass the MockRequestContext in junit test case but its not working
Below is the error
org.springframework.webflow.execution.ActionExecutionException: Exception thrown executing [AnnotatedAction#41e68d87 targetAction = [EvaluateAction#49ff7d8c expression = setErrorMessages.getErrorMessagesMap(flowRequestContext), resultExpression = flowScope.errorMessageMap], attributes = map[[empty]]] in state 'set_error_in_scope' of flow 'shclogin-flow' -- action execution attributes were 'map[[empty]]'

Answer 1

You are still having the same issues, which are issues with mocking and expecting the exact same object as a parameter.
Why do you care so much about the flowRequestContext object?
EasyMock.expect(setErrorMessages.getErrorMessagesMap(flowRequestContext)).andReturn(model);
just use:
EasyMock.expect(setErrorMessages.getErrorMessagesMap((RequestContext)EasyMock.anyObject())).andReturn(model);
which will work with any instance of RequestContext that can be within your flow
