Class ConfigurationSupport

java.lang.Object
  org.mockito.configuration.experimental.ConfigurationSupport

public class ConfigurationSupport
extends java.lang.Object

Allows configuring Mockito to enable custom 'mocking style'. It can be useful when working with legacy code, etc.

See examples from mockito/test/org/mockitousage/examples/configure subpackage. You may want to check out the project from svn repository to easily browse Mockito's test code.

Basic example:

   //create an implementation of ReturnValues interface
   
   public class FriendlyReturnValues implements ReturnValues {

   public Object valueFor(InvocationOnMock invocation) {
       
       Class returnType = invocation.getMethod().getReturnType();
       
       Object defaultReturnValue = ConfigurationSupport.defaultValueFor(invocation);
       
       if (defaultReturnValue != null || !ConfigurationSupport.isMockable(returnType)) {
           return defaultReturnValue;
       } else { 
           return Mockito.mock(returnType);
       }
   }
   
   //finally, change the configuration: 
   
   ConfigurationSupport.getConfiguration().setReturnValues(new FriendlyReturnValues());
 

Configuring Mockito is a new concept that we evaluate. Please let us know if you find it useful/harmful.
