checking constructor arguments in mockito' verify method

Question

How to check that compareTo method will be invoked with this argument new ComparableVersion("1"))

  verify(comparableVersion).compareTo(any(ComparableVersion.class));

Now I use any - this is not enough.

If you implement a proper equals method in your class, you can use the eq matcher. It will not verify your constructor, but it will verify against an object that has been initialized to a known state.

If you have a proper equals method in your class, you don't need the eq matcher at all. Just pass the value that you want to compare it to directly, for example verify(comparableVersion).compareTo(new ComparableVersion("1")); - this will use your equals to compare the actual value to new ComparableVersions("1").

That's true, @DavidWallace. eq is actually not needed in this case at all.
