Testing EventBus

[jopons]

I'd like to create tests that check the EventBus is dispatching expected events using mocking. I attempted to use ASMock, but the expect call fails because the event object being dispatched is created in the tested method. What is a recommended design to write tests for the use of EventBus.dispatchEvent?

Expect.call(eventBus.dispatchEvent(new LoadEvent(LoadEvent.LOAD_DATA)));
mockRepository.replay(eventBus);
myclass.eventBus=eventBus;
myclass.loadData(); //within this class eventBus.dispatchEvent method is called
mockRepository.verify(eventBus); //failing, even though the proper event is dispatched

Hey there,

this seems to be more of an ASmock specific question, have you tried the ASMock forums already?

http://sourceforge.net/projects/asmo...s/forum/905530

I have the feeling that people over there will be better able to help you out.

cheers,

Roland

Thanks for the reply. I decided to not use a mock and instead created a wrapper for EventBusFacade for my testing purposes.
