Holder class for a collection of mocks that can be passed implicitly to one form of the
overloaded whenExecuting method.
Implicit conversion that invokes the expect method on the EasyMock companion object (i.e., the
static expect method in Java class org.easymock.EasyMock).
Implicit conversion that invokes the expect method on the EasyMock companion object (i.e., the
static expect method in Java class org.easymock.EasyMock).
In a ScalaTest Suite, the expect method defined in Assertions, and inherited by Suite,
interferes with the expect method if imported from EasyMock. You can invoke it by qualifying it, i.e.,
EasyMock.expect, or by changing its name on import, like this:
import org.easymock.EasyMock.{expect => easyMockExpect, _}
But if you mix in this trait, you can just invoke call instead.
You can use this method, for example, to chain expectations like this:
expecting {
call(mock.getName).andReturn("Ben Franklin")
}
Note: the name of this methods is call, not expectCall because
"expect" appears in the surrounding expecting clause provided by this trait.
Moreover, because this method is marked implicit, you will usually be able to simply
leave it off. So long as the result of the method call you are expecting doesn't have
a method that satisfies the subsequent invocation (such as andReturn in this
example), the Scala compiler will invoke call for you
implicitly. Here's how that looks:
expecting {
mock.getName.andReturn("Ben Franklin")
}
- the result of invoking a method on mock prior to invoking replay.
Provides a visual clue to readers of the code that a set of statements are expectations being set on mocks.
Provides a visual clue to readers of the code that a set of statements are expectations being set on mocks.
Using the EasyMock API directly, you set expectations on a mock object with syntax like:
mockCollaborator.documentAdded("Document") mockCollaborator.documentChanged("Document") expectLastCall().times(3)
This expecting method can make it more obvious which portion of your test code
is devoted to setting expectations on mock objects. For example:
expecting {
mockCollaborator.documentAdded("Document")
mockCollaborator.documentChanged("Document")
lastCall.times(3)
}
Using an expecting clause is optional, because it does nothing besides visually indicate
which statements are setting expectations on mocks. Note: this trait also provides the lastCall
method, which just calls expectLastCall. This allows you to avoid writing "expect" twice.
Also, the reason expecting doesn't take a by-name parameter, execute that, then call
replay is because you would then need to pass your mock object or objects into
expecting. Since you already need to pass the mocks into whenExecuting so
that verify can be invoked on them, it yields more concise client code to have
whenExecuting invoke replay on the mocks first rather than having
expecting invoke replay last.
Invokes the expectLastCall method on the EasyMock companion object (i.e., the
static expect method in Java class org.easymock.EasyMock).
Invokes the expectLastCall method on the EasyMock companion object (i.e., the
static expect method in Java class org.easymock.EasyMock).
This method is provided simply to allow you to avoid repeating "expect" inside an
expecting clause. Here's an example that uses the expectLastCall directly
to express the expectation that the getName method will be invoked three times
on a mock, each time returning "Ben Franklin":
expecting {
mock.getName.andReturn("Ben Franklin")
expectLastCall.times(3)
}
Using this method, you can compress this to:
expecting {
mock.getName.andReturn("Ben Franklin")
lastCall.times(3)
}
Invokes the createMock method on the EasyMock companion object (i.e., the
static createMock method in Java class org.easymock.classextension.EasyMock).
Invokes the createMock method on the EasyMock companion object (i.e., the
static createMock method in Java class org.easymock.classextension.EasyMock).
Using the EasyMock API directly, you create a mock with:
val mockCollaborator = createMock(classOf[Collaborator])
Using this method, you can shorten that to:
val mockCollaborator = mock[Collaborator]
Invokes the createNiceMock method on the EasyMock companion object (i.e., the
static createNiceMock method in Java class org.easymock.classextension.EasyMock).
Invokes the createNiceMock method on the EasyMock companion object (i.e., the
static createNiceMock method in Java class org.easymock.classextension.EasyMock).
Using the EasyMock API directly, you create a nice mock with:
val mockCollaborator = createNiceMock(classOf[Collaborator])
Using this trait, you can shorten that to:
val mockCollaborator = niceMock[Collaborator]
Invokes the createStrictMock method on the EasyMock companion object (i.e., the
static createStrictMock method in Java class org.easymock.classextension.EasyMock).
Invokes the createStrictMock method on the EasyMock companion object (i.e., the
static createStrictMock method in Java class org.easymock.classextension.EasyMock).
Using the EasyMock API directly, you create a strict mock with:
val mockCollaborator = createStrictMock(classOf[Collaborator])
Using this trait, you can shorten that to:
val mockCollaborator = strictMock[Collaborator]
Invokes replay on the mock object or objects passed via an implicit parameter,
executes the passed function, then invokes verify on the passed mock object or objects.
Invokes replay on the mock object or objects passed via an implicit parameter,
executes the passed function, then invokes verify on the passed mock object or objects.
Once you've set expectations on some mock objects, you must invoke replay on
the mocks to indicate you are done setting expectations, and will start using the mocks.
After using the mocks, you must invoke verify to check to make sure the mocks
were used in accordance with the expectations you set on it. Here's how that looks when you
use the EasyMock API directly:
replay(mock) classUnderTest.addDocument("Document", new Array[Byte](0)) classUnderTest.addDocument("Document", new Array[Byte](0)) classUnderTest.addDocument("Document", new Array[Byte](0)) classUnderTest.addDocument("Document", new Array[Byte](0)) verify(mock)
This method enables you to use the following, more declarative syntax instead:
implicit val mocks = MockObjects(mockCollaborator)
whenExecuting { classUnderTest.addDocument("Document", new Array[Byte](0)) classUnderTest.addDocument("Document", new Array[Byte](0)) classUnderTest.addDocument("Document", new Array[Byte](0)) classUnderTest.addDocument("Document", new Array[Byte](0)) }
If you are working with multiple mock objects at once, you simply pass
them all to MockObjects, like this:
implicit val mocks = MockObjects(mock1, mock2, mock3)
The whenExecuting method will first invoke EasyMock.reply
once for each mock you supplied, execute the passed function, then
invoke EasyMock.verify once for each mock you supplied. If an exception
is thrown by the passed function, whenExecuting will complete abruptly with
that same exception without executing verify on any of the mocks.
Invokes replay on the passed mock object or objects, executes the passed function, then invokes
verify on the passed mock object or objects.

}

whenExecuting(mock1, mock2, mock3) {
// ...

one or more mock objects to invoke replay before using and verify after using.

Companion object that facilitates the importing of
EasyMockSugarmembers as an alternative to mixing it in. One use case is to importEasyMockSugarmembers so you can use them in the Scala interpreter.
