Scala or Java equivalent of Ruby factory_girl or Python factory_boy (convenient factory pattern for unit testing)

When I am writing unit tests in dynamically-typed Ruby or Python, I use the libraries factory_girl and factory_boy, respectively, in order to conveniently generate objects under test. They provide convenient features over direct object instantiation, for example:

• factory inheritance and overrides


• field defaults and overrides


• lazily-computed dependent/derived fields


• construction of dependent/related other objects


• implicit lazy field dependency resolution

What are some libraries/frameworks I could use while writing unit tests in statically-typed Java or Scala to achieve similar effects with similar benefits?

Thanks in advance!

I found a similar StackOverflow question from the past here, but unfortunately, the top answer is (paraphrased), "there is no direct equivalent because that would be pointless".
