Tests never get executed because of the Mockito.doThrow

I am testing an anroid app using Mockito. I want to test an exception case, but the method Mockito.doThrow hangs and the test never gets executed (it neither fails nor succeeds).

Here's the code. PackageDownloader represents an AsyncTask. Its method get gets called inside of the downloadPackage method. But the execution never comes to that point because it hangs exactly on doThrow line.

PackageDownloader packageDownloader = new PackageDownloader();
PackageDownloader mockPackageDownloader = Mockito.spy(packageDownloader);
HttpURLConnection connectionMock = Mockito.mock(HttpURLConnection.class);
Mockito.doReturn(connectionMock)
       .when(mockPackageDownloader)
       .createConnection(Mockito.any(URL.class));
Mockito.doThrow(new InterruptedException()).when(mockPackageDownloader).get();
downloadPackage();
