java - PowerMock PrepareForTest annotation causing problems with AmazonSQSClient constructor

Question

I'm having some trouble with the PrepareForTest annotation and creating a new instance of an AmazonSQSClient.

I'm writing a Jenkins plugin and unfortunately need to mock the FormValidation static class in order to ensure that warning and error messages are produced on field validation of my plugin. However when creating an instance of AmazonSQSClient I get an org.apache.http.conn.ssl.SSLInitializationException

I've abstracted it down to a very simple example, here's my test file:

package com.test;

import com.amazonaws.services.sqs.AmazonSQS;
import com.amazonaws.services.sqs.AmazonSQSClient;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.powermock.core.classloader.annotations.PrepareForTest;
import org.powermock.modules.junit4.PowerMockRunner;

@RunWith(PowerMockRunner.class)  
public class SQSTest {

    // This is for mimicking the mocking of FormValidation
    private static class Foo {}

    @Test
    @PrepareForTest(Foo.class)
    public void buildTest()
    {
        AmazonSQS sqs = new AmazonSQSClient();
    }
}

On running this code I get the following error:

In order to help anyone wanting to build and run this quickly here is my pom.xml file:

When the annotation @PrepareForTest(Foo.class) is removed from the method the test runs fine.

I was wondering if someone could explain why this is happening and if there is a work around for it or a way to avoid mocking the FormValidation class?

Thanks.

Try to add @PowerMockIgnore("org.apache.http.conn.ssl.*") annotation to your class
