Exception stacktrace

2026-02-05T21:50:56,541 - WARN  - [async-dual-memory-limiter-5-1:TopicListService] - [Mock for ServerCnx, hashCode: 473440633] Error WatchTopicList for namespace [//tenant/ns] by 7

org.mockito.exceptions.misusing.UnfinishedStubbingException: 
Unfinished stubbing detected here:
-> at org.apache.pulsar.broker.service.TopicListServiceTest.testCommandWatchUpdateRetries(TopicListServiceTest.java:348)

E.g. thenReturn() may be missing.
Examples of correct stubbing:
    when(mock.isOk()).thenReturn(true);
    when(mock.isOk()).thenThrow(exception);
    doThrow(exception).when(mock).someVoidMethod();
Hints:
 1. missing thenReturn()
 2. you are trying to stub a final method, which is not supported
 3. you are stubbing the behaviour of another mock inside before 'thenReturn' instruction is completed, possibly on another thread
