Method Details

minLength

public ArrayGeneratorSpec<T> minLength(int length)

Description copied from interface: ArrayGeneratorSpec

Minimum length of array to generate.

Specified by:

minLength in interface ArrayGeneratorSpec<T>

Parameters:

length - minimum length (inclusive)

Returns:

spec builder

maxLength

public ArrayGeneratorSpec<T> maxLength(int length)

Description copied from interface: ArrayGeneratorSpec

Maximum length of array to generate.

Specified by:

maxLength in interface ArrayGeneratorSpec<T>

Parameters:

length - maximum length (inclusive)

Returns:

spec builder

length

public ArrayGeneratorSpec<T> length(int length)

Description copied from interface: ArrayGeneratorSpec

length of array to generate.

Specified by:

length in interface ArrayGeneratorSpec<T>

Parameters:

length - of array

Returns:

spec builder

nullable

public ArrayGeneratorSpec<T> nullable()

Description copied from interface: ArrayGeneratorSpec

Indicates that null value can be generated for the array.

Specified by:

nullable in interface ArrayGeneratorSpec<T>

Returns:

spec builder

nullableElements

public ArrayGeneratorSpec<T> nullableElements()

Description copied from interface: ArrayGeneratorSpec

Indicates that null values can be generated for array elements.

Specified by:

nullableElements in interface ArrayGeneratorSpec<T>

Returns:

spec builder

type

public ArrayGenerator<T> type(Class<?> type)

Description copied from interface: ArrayGeneratorSpec

Specifies the type of array that should be generated.

Specified by:

type in interface ArrayGeneratorSpec<T>

Parameters:

type - of array to generate

Returns:

spec builder

with

public ArrayGeneratorSpec<T> with(T... elements)

Description copied from interface: ArrayGeneratorSpec

Adds given elements to the generated array at random positions.

Specified by:

with in interface ArrayGeneratorSpec<T>

Parameters:

elements - to add

Returns:

spec builder

targetClass

public Optional<Class<?>> targetClass()

Description copied from interface: Generator

Target class to generate.

If Optional.empty() is returned, it will default to the field type for fields, and element type for collection and array elements.

If the type is an interface, such as Set, will generate a default implementation class such as HashSet.

Specified by:

targetClass in interface Generator<T>

Returns:

target class

generate

public T generate(RandomProvider random)

Description copied from interface: Generator

Returns a generated value.

If the generated value is random, it needs to be generated using the given RandomProvider instance. This ensures the data is generated with the same seed value and allows random data to be reproduced by specifying the seed value.

Specified by:

generate in interface Generator<T>

Parameters:

random - provider for random values

Returns:

generated value

getHints

public GeneratedHints getHints()

Description copied from interface: Generator

Returns hints, including collection sizes and whether values are nullable.

Specified by:

getHints in interface Generator<T>

Returns:

generated hints
