Method Detail

lenEq

public static <T> T lenEq(T object)

Expects the given object argument but uses a reflection argument matcher to compare the given value with the actual value during the test. The comparator modes are set to ignore defaults and lenient order.

Same as refEq with ignore defaults and lenient order as comparator modes.

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the object to compare with

Parameters:

object - the value

Returns:

null

refEq

public static <T> T refEq(T object,
          ReflectionComparatorMode... modes)

Expects the given object argument but uses a reflection argument matcher with the given comparator modes to compare the given value with the actual value during the test.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the object to compare with

Parameters:

object - the value

modes - the comparator modes

Returns:

null

createRegularMock

public static <T> T createRegularMock(Class<T> mockType)

Creates a regular EasyMock mock object of the given type.

Same as createRegularMock(Class, InvocationOrder, Calls) with a default invocation order and default calls value. These defaults can be set in the unitils configuration.

An instance of the mock control is stored, so that it can be set to the replay/verify state when replay() or verify() is called.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the mock

Parameters:

mockType - the type of the mock, not null

Returns:

a mock for the given class or interface, not null

createRegularMock

public static <T> T createRegularMock(Class<T> mockType,
                      InvocationOrder invocationOrder,
                      Calls calls)

Creates a regular EasyMock mock object of the given type.

An instance of the mock control is stored, so that it can be set to the replay/verify state when replay() or verify() is called.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the mock

Parameters:

mockType - the class type for the mock, not null

invocationOrder - the order setting, not null

calls - the calls setting, not null

Returns:

a mock for the given class or interface, not null

createMock

public static <T> T createMock(Class<T> mockType)

Creates a lenient mock object of the given type. The LenientMocksControl is used for creating the mock.

Same as createMock(Class, InvocationOrder, Calls, Order, Dates, Defaults) with a default invocation order, default calls, default order, default dates and default defaults value. These defaults can be set in the unitils configuration.

An instance of the mock control is stored, so that it can be set to the replay/verify state when replay() or verify() is called.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the mock

Parameters:

mockType - the type of the mock, not null

Returns:

a mock for the given class or interface, not null

createMock

public static <T> T createMock(Class<T> mockType,
               InvocationOrder invocationOrder,
               Calls calls,
               Order order,
               Dates dates,
               Defaults defaults)

Creates a lenient mock object of the given type. The LenientMocksControl is used for creating the mock.

Same as createMock(Class, InvocationOrder, Calls, Order, Dates, Defaults) with a default invocation order, default calls, default order, default dates and default defaults value. These defaults can be set in the unitils configuration.

An instance of the mock control is stored, so that it can be set to the replay/verify state when replay() or verify() is called.

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the mock

Parameters:

mockType - the type of the mock, not null

invocationOrder - the invocation order setting, not null

calls - the calls setting, not null

order - the order setting, not null

dates - the dates setting, not null

defaults - the defaults setting, not null

Returns:

a mock for the given class or interface, not null

replay

public static void replay()

Unit tests should call this method after having set their recorded expected behavior on the mock objects.

This method makes sure EasyMock's replay method is called on every mock object that was supplied to the fields annotated with Mock, or directly created by the createRegularMock(Class, InvocationOrder, Calls) and createMock(Class, InvocationOrder, Calls, Order, Dates, Defaults) methods.

After each test, the expected behavior is verified automatically, or explicitly by calling verify().

reset

public static void reset()

verify

public static void verify()

Unit tests can call this method to check whether all recorded expected behavior was actually observed during the test.

This method makes sure MocksControl.verify() method is called for every mock mock object that was injected to a field annotated with Mock, or directly created by the createRegularMock(Class, InvocationOrder, Calls) or createMock(Class, InvocationOrder, Calls, Order, Dates, Defaults) methods.

By default, the expected behavior is verified automatically. This can be disabled however by setting the property EasyMockModule.autoVerifyAfterTest.enabled to false. In that case, verification can also be performed explicitly by calling this method.
