public class ReturnsElementsOf
extends Object
implements Answer<Object>

Returns elements of the collection. Keeps returning the last element forever. Might be useful on occasion when you have a collection of elements to return.

   //this:
   when(mock.foo()).thenReturn(1, 2, 3);
   //is equivalent to:
   when(mock.foo()).thenAnswer(new ReturnsElementsOf(Arrays.asList(1, 2, 3)));
 

Also you might better want to use the static factory there AdditionalAnswers.returnsElementsOf(java.util.Collection)
