override mocking behaviour for one test

[Frederic Pape]

Hello,

Is it possible to override the behaviour (return value) for one
specific test method: see example below (also available at:
http://meetspock.appspot.com/script/36001)
"testing exceptional behaviour" fails where I want it to succeed

interface MyInterface {
int myMethod()
}


class MyInterfaceTest extends Specification {
def myInterface = Mock(MyInterface)

def setup() {
myInterface.myMethod() >> 1
}

def "testing regular behaviour"() {
when:
def result = myInterface.myMethod()
then:
result == 1
}

def "testing exceptional behaviour"() {
given:
myInterface.myMethod() >> 2
when:
def result = myInterface.myMethod()
then:
result == 2
}
}

Yes. Interactions in a then-block have precedence over all other
interactions.

Cheers,

Ok nice. It works now. Thanks.

Shouldn't interactions in the given-block (of a test method) to have precedence over interactions in the setup-block (of the test class)?

Thanks,

Frederic

by the way: Peter, congrats with your excellent framework, Spock rocks :-)

As far as I know given is just an alias to setup; they are exactly the same thing.

I guess you are saying that interactions in given/setup blocks should have precedence over those in setup methods. We considered implementing this, but didn't deem it important enough. If you'd like to see this, feel free to submit an issue.

Cheers,
Peter

Indeed that's what I meant...
