Annotation Interface MockitoBean

@Target(FIELD) @Retention(RUNTIME) @Documented public @interface MockitoBean
Mark a field to trigger a bean override using a Mockito mock. If no explicit name() is specified, the annotated field's name is interpreted to be the target of the override. In either case, if no existing bean is defined a new one will be added to the context.

Dependencies that are known to the application context but are not beans (such as those registered directly) will not be found, and a mocked bean will be added to the context alongside the existing dependency.
