Features

• Test Double Libraries - Creates a test double for any class and lets you stub its methods to return specific values.
• Kotlin Unit Testing - Creates lightweight mock objects to isolate and verify behavior of Kotlin code during unit tests.
• Bytecode and Instrumentation - Modifies compiled class files at load time to intercept constructors, final methods, and static functions without source changes.
• Mock Argument Capturers - Records actual arguments passed to stubbed methods for later inspection or assertion in tests.
• Mocking Libraries - Creates test doubles for Kotlin classes, including final classes, static methods, and coroutines, without modifying production code.
• Return Value Configurations - Defines what a mocked method should return when called with specific arguments.
• Bytecode Instrumentation Agents - Modifies compiled class files at load time to intercept constructors, final methods, and static functions without source changes.
• Suspend Function Stubbings - Stubs and verifies suspend functions and coroutine-heavy code, enabling controlled asynchronous behavior in tests.
• Load-Time Class Transformations - Modifies compiled class files during class loading to intercept constructors, final methods, and static functions without source changes.
• Lambda Argument Capturers - Captures lambda arguments passed to mocked functions for post-execution inspection during tests.
• Extension and Constructor Function Mockings - Intercepts constructor calls and stubs suspend functions to test code that creates objects or uses coroutines internally.
• Static Function Mockings - Replaces static and top-level Kotlin functions with mocks for stubbing and verification in tests.
• Static Method Mockings - Replaces static and extension function calls with controlled behavior for test isolation.
• Top-Level Function Stubs - Replaces standalone Kotlin functions with mocks for testing code that calls them.
• Lambda Argument Captures for Mocks - Captures lambda arguments and mocks suspend functions so coroutine-heavy code is testable without a real dispatcher.
• Mock Call Order Verifications - Asserts that interactions with a mock happened in a specific sequence, or that no unexpected calls occurred.
• Chained Call Answer Providers - Returns a nested mock or value when a chain of method calls is invoked on a mock.
• Method Stubbings - Defines what a mock returns or does when a specific method is called, including chained calls and multiple answers.
• Static or Top-Level Function Stubs - Replaces static methods and top-level functions with stubs for the duration of a test.
• Method Invocation Verifications - Asserts that a mocked method was called a specific number of times, or within a minimum and maximum range.
• Chained Call Stubbers - Stubs a sequence of property or method accesses on a mock, returning nested mocks for intermediate steps.
• Kotlin Construct Mocks - Mocks Kotlin-specific constructs like objects, static methods, coroutines, and extension functions in Android instrumented tests.
• Singleton Object Mocks - Replaces Kotlin singleton objects with mocks for the duration of a test, restoring originals afterward.
• Singleton Object Replacements - Replaces Kotlin singleton objects with mocks for the duration of a test, restoring originals afterward.
• Constructor Interceptors - Intercepts constructor calls to return mock instances, useful for testing code that creates objects internally.
• Relaxed Mocks - Creates relaxed mocks that return default values for unstubbed calls, reducing test boilerplate.
• Final Member Mocks - Overrides final and closed classes during tests, removing the usual restriction on subclassing them.
• Static Member Mocks - Mocks final classes, object instances, and static methods using bytecode instrumentation to isolate tests from real implementations.
• Unit Testing - Enables isolated unit testing by creating lightweight mock objects that simulate real dependencies.
• Method Interception Spies - Wraps real objects so unstubbed methods execute original implementations while stubbed methods return configured values.
• Suspend Function Interceptions - Intercepts Kotlin suspend function calls at the bytecode level to allow stubbing and verification of coroutine-based methods.
• Test Double Frameworks - Creates mocks, spies, and relaxed mocks that support Kotlin-specific features like extension functions, constructors, and singletons.
• Dynamic Mock Answer Providers - Returns computed or dynamic results from stubbed methods based on call arguments or internal state.
• Mock Null Value Handlings - Handles null values in mocks by returning null or accepting null arguments for nullable type coverage.
• Mock Lifecycle Scopes - Manages mock lifecycle within lexical scopes, automatically clearing interactions after scope exit.
• Concurrent Operation Verifications - Waits up to a timeout for verification to pass, enabling testing of code running on other threads.
• Test Lifecycle Rules - Uses a JUnit rule or extension to automatically initialize and clean up mocks per test class.
• Private Member Stubs - Stubs and verifies private methods and properties on spies using dynamic call syntax.
• Mock Argument Matchers - Uses matchers to specify acceptable argument values when stubbing or verifying, including wildcards and custom predicates.
• Matcher Expressions - Writes concise expressions that match arguments by condition such as equality, type, or custom predicates.
• Partial Argument Matchers - Specifies argument matchers for only some parameters of a call, leaving others to match any value automatically.
• Mock Backing Field Accessors - Overrides the value stored in a property's backing field on a mock, bypassing getter and setter logic.
• Call Recording Exclusions - Ignores specified method calls during exhaustive verification so they do not cause failures.
• Concurrent Call Verifications - Waits for verification to pass within a timeout, enabling testing of asynchronous or multi-threaded code.
• Exhaustive Call Verifications - Checks that every recorded call on a mock has been covered by a verification statement.
• Sequenced Call Answer Providers - Supports returning a sequence of different values from a stubbed method across successive calls.
• Property Backing Field Overrides - Reads or modifies the backing field of a property during stubbing or verification.
• BDD Syntax Aliases - Writes test stubs and verifications using given/when/then syntax for behavior-driven development.
• Mock State Resetting - Resets internal recording and stubbing state of mocks without removing their bytecode transformations.
• Global Mock Restorations - Restores all mocked objects, statics, and constructors to their original state after test execution.
• Array Type Mock Definitions - Stubs methods that accept or return arrays, handling array types correctly in mock definitions.
• Annotation-Driven Mock Injections - Declares mocks, spies, and injected mocks with annotations and initializes them automatically in a setup method.
• Mock Strictness Dispatchers - Creates mocks that require explicit behavior definitions for every call and fail on unexpected invocations.
• Android Instrumented Mock Objects - Provides mock objects designed for Android instrumented test environments with platform-specific adaptation.
• Initialization Block Suppressors - Suppresses the execution of class initialization blocks when creating mock objects to prevent side effects.
• Instance-Level Mock Replacements - Replaces behavior on specific object instances at runtime to verify interactions on real objects.
• Nested Mock Builders - Builds a tree of nested mocks in a single DSL block, defining behavior for deeply nested properties concisely.
• Mock Restorations - Restores individual mocked classes, objects, or static methods back to their original implementations.
• Android Final Class Mocks - Mocks final classes in Android instrumented tests using DexOpener on pre-P and inline instrumentation on P+.
• Private Function Overrides - Overrides private method implementations on mocks to control internal behavior during tests.
• Private Method Stubs - Stubs or verifies private methods on spies using dynamic call syntax for complete code isolation.
• Custom Matchers - Provides a DSL for defining custom argument matchers using the match helper function or Matcher interface.
• Vararg Method Stubbers - Stubs and verifies methods that accept variable-length argument lists.
• Timeout-Based Verifications - Waits for verification to pass within a time limit, enabling testing of concurrent code.
