Mocking methods from a parent Class - spring-mvc

Question

I have a couple of classes as follows:
public class ControllerA {
#Autowired
private UserService userService;
protected void methodControllerA() {
userService.findAll();
....
}
}
public class ControllerB extends ControllerA {
#Autowired
private AccountService accountService;
public void methodControllerB() {
accountService.findAll();
methodControllerA();
}
}
and I want to test the behaviour of ControllerB.methodControllerB(), so I 've created Junit class as follows:
#RunWith(MockitoJUnitRunner.class)
#ContextConfiguration(locations = {
"classpath:services/testServiceContext.xml",
"classpath:apply/applyController.xml",
"classpath:testApplicationContext.xml",
"classpath:testDatabaseMessageSource.xml",
"classpath:controller/propertyeditors/propertyeditorsContext.xml"})
public class ControllerBTest {
#Mock
private AccountService accountService;
#InjectMocks
private ControllerB controller;
#Test
public void methodControllerBTest() throws Exception {
controller = new ControllerB() {
protected void methodControllerA() {
}
};
controller.methodControllerB();
asserts();
}
}
Of course when I instantiate the ControllerB() , accountService is not mocked, so I get a nullpointer when accountService is called, but if I don't instantiate ControllerB() I can't overwrite methodControllerA(), so I get a nullpointer in the Userservice inside this method...
Any ideas ? Thanks

Solved !
AccountServiceImp accountService = mock(AccountServiceImp.class);
controller = new ControllerB() {
protected void methodControllerA() {
}
};
controller.setAccountService(accountService);
controller.methodControllerB();
