Method Detail

canImposterise

public boolean canImposterise(Class<?> type)

Description copied from interface: Imposteriser

Reports if the Imposteriser is able to imposterise a given type.

Specified by:

Parameters:

type - The type in question.

Returns:

True if this imposteriser can imposterise type, false otherwise.

imposterise

public <T> T imposterise(Invokable mockObject,
                         Class<T> mockedType,
                         Class<?>... ancilliaryTypes)

Description copied from interface: Imposteriser

Creates an imposter for a given type that forwards Invocations to an Invokable object.

Specified by:

imposterise in interface Imposteriser

Type Parameters:

T - The static type of the imposter that is created.

Parameters:

mockObject - The object that is to receive invocations forwarded from the imposter.

mockedType - The class representing the static type of the imposter.

ancilliaryTypes - Other types for the imposter. It must be possible to dynamically cast the imposter to these types. These types must all be interfaces because Java only allows single inheritance of classes.

Returns:

A new imposter. The imposter must implement the mockedType and all the ancialliaryTypes.
