object PrivateMethodTester extends PrivateMethodTester

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

$scala -classpath scalatest.jar
Welcome to Scala version 2.7.5.final (Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM, Java 1.5.0_16).
Type in expressions to have them evaluated.

scala> import org.scalatest.PrivateMethodTester._
import org.scalatest.PrivateMethodTester._
 
scala> class Example {
     |   private def addSesame(prefix: String) = prefix + " sesame"
     | }
defined class Example
 
scala> val example = new Example
example: Example = Example@d8b6fe
 
scala> val addSesame = PrivateMethod[String]('addSesame)
addSesame: org.scalatest.PrivateMethodTester.PrivateMethod[String] = org.scalatest.PrivateMethodTester$PrivateMethod@5cdf95
 
scala> example invokePrivate addSesame("open")
