It also sets a name to the mock. This name is present in all verification messages. That's very useful in debugging, since it allows you to distinguish the mocks.mock(Class<T> classToMock, Answer defaultAnswer): This method creates a mock of a given class with a default answer set to the one passed as the method's argument. In other words, all of the nonstubbed mock's method will act as defined in...
