Mockito Junit : ExceptionInIntialize and NullPointer Error on struts DispatchAction.java when runnin-CodePudding

I have a class ClassA which is extending DispatchAction class from org.apache.struts.actions.DispatchAction, I have written JUnit code coverage test for ClassA but whenever I try to run the test case I keep getting these error but if I remove the extends DispatchAction from ClassA the test runs normally without any error but then obviously my application won't work ClassA

public class ClassA extends DispatchAction {
//some methods and other code
}

TestClassA

@RunWith(Junit4.class)
public class TestClassA {
@InjectMocks
ClassA objA;
/* mock some objects here */
@Before
public void setUp()
{
MockitoAnnotations.openMocks(this);
}
@Test
public void methodToTest()
{
//Coverage code
objA.methodA();
}
}

Here is the stack trace I get when I run this test case (when I keep "extends DispatchAction" in class ClassA )

Now if I remove the "extends DispatchAction" from class ClassA it will run and cover the intended lines in the test case without any problems but my application won't work as intended.

I tried searching on how to resolve all those errors but I cannot find anything that might help.

Resolved the issue by adding the latest j2ee jar which was missing earlier.
