invoke

Object invoke(Invocation invocation)
              throws Throwable
Invokes the expectation: records that the invocation has occurred and fakes some behaviour in response.

Parameters:
invocation - The invocation to record and fake.
Returns:
A result that is eventually returned from the method call that caused the invocation.
Throws:
Throwable - An exception that is eventually thrown from the method call that caused the invocation.
IllegalStateException - The expectation has been invoked with a method that it doesn't match or the faked behaviour has been set up incorrectly. For example, IllegalStateException is thrown when trying to return a value or throw a checked exception that is incompatible with the return type of the method being mocked
