Class Configuration

java.lang.Object

org.meanbean.test.Configuration

public class Configuration
extends Object

Test configuration used to customize testing for a single JavaBean type. Configuration objects are only required when you want to customize the testing behaviour. Most often the standard testing behaviour will be sufficient.

Configuration objects should be created using a ConfigurationBuilder.

Configuration objects can be passed to BeanTester.test(Class<?>,Configuration); for use as a one-off, or registered with the BeanTester for use thereafter: BeanTester.addCustomConfiguration(Class<?>,Configuration);.

The following can be configured/customized:

• The number of times a type is tested.
• Whether a property is tested or not, by specifying properties of a type that should be ignored.
• The Factory that should be used when generating test data for a given property.

Prefer BeanTesterBuilder

Method Detail

hasIterationsOverride

public boolean hasIterationsOverride()

Does this Configuration contain an override for the number of times a type should be tested, or should the standard global configuration setting be used instead?

Returns:

true if this Configuration contains an override for the number of times a type should be tested; false if the standard global configuration setting should be used instead.

getIterations

public Integer getIterations()

Get the number of times a type should be tested.

Returns:

The number of times a type should be tested. This will be null if the number of times a type should be tested has not been overridden in this Configuration. Use hasIterationsOverride() first to check whether an iterations override is present.

isIgnoredProperty

public boolean isIgnoredProperty(String property)
                          throws IllegalArgumentException

Should the specified property been disregarded/ignored during testing?

Parameters:

property - The name of the property.

Returns:

true if the property should be disregarded/ignored during testing; false otherwise.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If the property parameter is deemed illegal. For example, if it is null.

hasOverrideFactory

public boolean hasOverrideFactory(String property)
                           throws IllegalArgumentException

Does the specified property have an override Factory?

That is, has a Factory been registered within this Configuration as an override to standard Factory selection for the specified property?

Parameters:

property - The name of the property.

Returns:

true if the property does have an override Factory; false otherwise.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If the property parameter is deemed illegal. For example, if it is null.

getOverrideFactory

public Factory<? extends Object> getOverrideFactory(String property)
                                             throws IllegalArgumentException

Get the override Factory for the specified property, if one has been registered in this Configuration.

The returned Factory will be used over the standard Factory for the property.

Parameters:

property - The name of the property.

Returns:

The specified property's override Factory, if one has been registered in this Configuration. Otherwise, null.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - If the property parameter is deemed illegal. For example, if it is null.

toString

public String toString()

Get a human-readable String representation of this object.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

A human-readable String representation of this object.
