AbstractDomainObject::getUid() is final to prevent people from 
overriding it in their entity class.
Why do you need to mock this setter?
You can create an "accessible" mock that allows you to get and set all 
protected members:

$myDomainObject = 
$this->getAccessibleMock('Tx_Foo_Domain_MyDomainObject', array('dummy'));

  // set uid
$myDomainObject->_set('uid', 123);

  // get uid
$myDomainObject->_get('uid');

HTH,
