JUnit 5 throw method not found with Mockito.extension

Question

I am updating a test from JUnit 4 to JUnit 5 (Jupiter).

Among the ordinary annotation adaptations such as @BeforeEach I am using @ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class) to run the @mocks.

The code is like this:

    import org.junit.jupiter.api.BeforeEach;
    import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;
    import org.junit.jupiter.api.extension.ExtendWith;
    import org.mockito.Mock;
    import org.mockito.junit.jupiter.MockitoExtension;

    @ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class)
    public class SomeTest {

        private static final String TEST = "test";

        @Mock
        RetailerService retailerService;
        private Delivery delivery;

        @BeforeEach
        public void setUp() {
            when(retailerService.getMessage(any(String.class))).thenReturn(TEST);
            delivery = new Delivery(retailerService);
        }

        @Test
        public void should_have_delivery() {
            assertEquals(getExpectedDeliveriesDTOs(), delivery.toDtos());
        }

    }

However when I run the test I am getting the following error:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.mockito.session.MockitoSessionBuilder.initMocks([Ljava/lang/Object;)Lorg/mockito/session/MockitoSessionBuilder;

I saw on this comment: https://stackoverflow.com/a/49655834/2182500 , that this error can be a consequence of having different versions of junit-jupiter-api as dependency in the projects POM and the one in the run scope used by mockito-junit-jupiter.

So I guaranteed to import the same version dependency for Jupiter, but I am still seeing the same error.

Has anyone bumped into this before and can help? Thank you in advance.

Can you share your pom entries related to junit and mockito? — camtastic, Oct 03 '19 at 13:10

Turns out this error was related to the Mockito dependencies versions. Thus, failling to initalize mocks.

The project I was working at had an old version of mockito-core artifact that did not have a related mockito-junit-jupiter version. the project needs to maintain mockito-coredue to Junit4 tests mock annotaions. Problem was solved by updating version of mockito core and using same version for mockito-junit-jupiter. Like this:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
        <artifactId>mockito-core</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.0</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
        <artifactId>mockito-junit-jupiter</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.0</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
