How do you return an enum as the mocked expectation with JMockit?

My test requires that one of the dependent mocked methods returns an enum. However, this causes JMockit to throw a ClassCastException.

public class MyTest {

    @Mocked Parameters params;

    @Test
    public void test() {

        new NonStrictExpectation() {
            {
                params.getPlatform(); result = Platform.DESKTOP;
            }
        };
        MyClass myClass = new MyClass(params);
        String str = myClass.run();

        assertNotNull(str);
    }
}

Running the test throws:

java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to com.mypackage.Platform

What's the return type of `run()`? – Sotirios Delimanolis Oct 02 '13 at 19:11
run() would return String, but internally run() calls params.getPlatform which returns Platfrom. – dhalsim2 Oct 02 '13 at 19:56

The test works fine for me (with minimal definitions for `Parameters`, `Platform`, and `MyClass`). Can you show a more complete example? – Rogério Oct 03 '13 at 00:56
