Verify Spock mock with specified timeout
There is no equivalent in Spock. (PollingConditions
can only be used for conditions, not for interactions.) The closest you can get is to add a sleep()
statement in the then
block:
when:
...
then:
sleep(200)
(1.._) * mock.baz()
I was trying to use PollingConditions to satisfy a similar scenario (which wasn't helpful), but instead found satisfaction in Spock's BlockingVariables. To verify that SomeService.method() is invoked at least once in function ClassBeingTested.method() within a given timeout period:
def "verify an interaction happened at least once within 200ms"(){
given:
def result = new BlockingVariable<Boolean>(0.2) // 200ms
SomeService someServiceMock = Mock()
someServiceMock.method() >> {
result.set(true)
}
ClassBeingTested clazz = new ClassBeingTested(someService: someServiceMock)
when:
clazz.someMethod()
then:
result.get()
}
When the result is set, the blocking condition will be satisfied and result.get() would have to return true for the condition to pass. If it fails to be set within 200ms, the test will fail with a timeout exception.
Using PollingConditions and a boolean variable, the following example evaluates a function until it satisfies an interaction.
def "test the config watcher to reload games if a new customer directory is added"() {
given:
def conditions = new PollingConditions(initialDelay: 1, timeout: 60, factor: 1.25)
def mockGameConfigLoader = Mock(GameConfigLoader)
def gameConfigWatcher= new GameConfigWatcher(mockGameConfigLoader)
boolean gamesReloaded = false
when:
conditions.eventually {
gameConfigWatcher.listenEvents()
assert gamesReloaded
}
then:
1 * mockGameConfigLoader.loadAllGameConfigs() >> {
gamesReloaded = true
}
0 * _
}
