Verify order of mock calls

I need to test if one objects calls other object methods in right order. Unfortunately it looks like Mockito use some kind of grouping for calls with the same parameters. I prepared example which illustrates this behavior.

public class TestInOrder {

@Test
public void test() {
    Foo foo = new Foo();
    Bar mockBar = mock(Bar.class);
    foo.run(mockBar);

    InOrder order = Mockito.inOrder(mockBar);
    order.verify(mockBar).A();
    order.verify(mockBar).B();
    order.verify(mockBar).B();
    order.verify(mockBar).A();
    order.verify(mockBar).B();
    }
}

class Foo {

void run(Bar mockBar) {
    mockBar.A();
    mockBar.B();
    mockBar.B();
    mockBar.A();
    mockBar.B();
}

}

class Bar {
public void A() {
}

public void B() {
}
}

The result is:

    org.mockito.exceptions.verification.VerificationInOrderFailure: 
Verification in order failure:
bar.B();
Wanted 1 time:
-> at com.goeuro.pi.provider.busfor.TestInOrder.test(TestInOrder.java:19)
But was 3 times. Undesired invocation:
-> at com.goeuro.pi.provider.busfor.Foo.run(TestInOrder.java:32)

I don't understand why I get this error. Order of calls in test is the same as in method.

The issue is that you expect one invocation on each mock. Instead Mockito will count all the invocation on certain mock and will fail when 2 in a row will happen. This is the implementation for verify method in InOrderImpl class.

public <T> T verify(T mock) {
    return this.verify(mock, VerificationModeFactory.times(1));
}

As you can see, it tells mockito to expect exact one invocation on method. From JavaDoc:

Allows verifying exact number of invocations.

Use VerificationMode to tell Mockito how to verify you mock. This should help:

InOrder order = Mockito.inOrder(mockBar);
order.verify(mockBar).A();
order.verify(mockBar, times(2)).B();
order.verify(mockBar).A();
order.verify(mockBar).B();
