Interface TypeArbitrary<T>

All Superinterfaces:

Arbitrary<T>

@API(status=MAINTAINED,
     since="1.2")
public interface TypeArbitrary<T>
extends Arbitrary<T>

Fluent interface to configure arbitraries that try to generate instances of a given type T from the type's available constructors and factory methods.

When constructors and factory methods have parameters those parameters will be resolved by searching for matching registered arbitrary providers. The searching is performed either globally or in the property method's specified domain contexts.

Method Detail

use

TypeArbitrary<T> use(java.lang.reflect.Executable creator)

Add another creator (function or constructor) to be used for generating values of type T

Parameters:

creator - The static function or constructor

Returns:

the same arbitrary instance

usePublicConstructors

TypeArbitrary<T> usePublicConstructors()

Add public constructors of class T to be used for generating values of type T

Returns:

the same arbitrary instance

useAllConstructors

TypeArbitrary<T> useAllConstructors()

Add all constructors (public, private or package scope) of class T to be used for generating values of type T

Returns:

the same arbitrary instance

useConstructors

TypeArbitrary<T> useConstructors(java.util.function.Predicate<? super java.lang.reflect.Constructor<?>> filter)

Add all constructors (public, private or package scope) of class T to be used for generating values of type T

Parameters:

filter - Predicate to add only those constructors for which the predicate returns true

Returns:

the same arbitrary instance

usePublicFactoryMethods

TypeArbitrary<T> usePublicFactoryMethods()

Add public factory methods (static methods with return type T) of class T to be used for generating values of type T

Returns:

the same arbitrary instance

useAllFactoryMethods

TypeArbitrary<T> useAllFactoryMethods()

Add all factory methods (static methods with return type T) of class T to be used for generating values of type T

Returns:

the same arbitrary instance

useFactoryMethods

TypeArbitrary<T> useFactoryMethods(java.util.function.Predicate<java.lang.reflect.Method> filter)

Add all factory methods (static methods with return type T) of class T to be used for generating values of type T

Parameters:

filter - Predicate to add only those factory methods for which the predicate returns true

Returns:

the same arbitrary instance
