4.0

This release adds support for Java 11 and moves to Java 8.

EasyMock inference has been changed. It should be backward compatible in most cases. However,
a type witness might be necessary.

To be clear, starting now List<String> list = mock(List.class); will compile perfectly without
any warning. However, String s = mock(List.class); will also compile. But I'm expecting you
not to be crazy enough to do such thing. It will do a ClassCastException at runtime anyway.

However, you might see your code failing to infer the return type, in that case, use a type
witness e.g. foo(EasyMock.<List<String>>mock(List.class) and it will some the problem nicely,
and again, without a warning.

This release adds support for Java 9 and Java 10 and fixes an issue for interface default methods.

Release notes

• Java 10 support through an update of ASM and cglib
• Add Java 9 automodule
• Allow mocking interface default methods on a partial mock

Change log

• Add Java 9 automodule (#212)
• Update asm, cglib and surefire for Java 10 support (#211)

3.5.1

This is a bug fix release of 3.5. It mainly fix dependency issues (ant in the classpath) caused by the latest
cglib release.

Release notes

• Remove ant from the classpath
• Put TestNG and JUnit in provided
• Pull ASM 6 out of beta

Change log

• Easymock 3.5 is aliasing other packages on the classpath (#207)
• Ant dependency is incorrectly packaged into easymock:jar:3.5 (#205)

easymock-3.5

Here is the long awaited 3.5 version. It contains many bug fixes and some improvement. We allowed ourselves to possibly break
the compatibility with older versions for the greater good. So please read these notes thoroughly.

Release notes

• Java 5 is no longer supported. I dearly hope this won't harm anyone
• Java 9 is supported
• TestNG support is added. Have a look at EasyMockListener
• Class Mocking now works correctly for cross bundle mocking
• verify() now checks for unexpected calls in case an AssertionError was swallowed during the test. It is in general
  what you want but you can use verifyRecording() to bring back the old behavior
• Default matcher for an array argument is now aryEq instead of eq. This should as well make sense for everyone and should
  allow you to remove tons of aryEq all over your code. If you don't like it, you can specify eq explicitly for the array
  argument

Change log

• isNull and notNull with generic class parameter (#93)
• Return a meaningful error when null on a primitive (#92)
• Create opportunity to disable SingleThread checks (#88)
• slightly more intuitive error message (#80)
• Enhancement for andAnswer / andStubAnswer (#79)
• Make easymock and easymock-ce OSGi-ready (#78)
• Enable Multiple Captures (#77)
• Improve multithreading error report in MocksBehavior (#73)
• Stack trace clobbered when exception thrown by IAnswer impl (#34)
• Possible bug with captures() (#30)
• Actual value in byte array failure is not helpful (#29)
• Regression caused by new threadsafe API and defaults (#27)
• Capturing parameters from single argument methods (#24)
• NPE with varargs in record state (#22)
• capture(Capture) only captures last method call (#21)

easymock-3.4

This version has finally removed the old (and ugly) partial mocking methods. You are now required to use the partialMockBuilder. In exchange, you get really nice short methods to create your mocks: mock, niceMock and strictMock.

You also get a better stability since cglib and ASM are now embedded to remove a possible version mismatch with your own dependencies. Note that Objenesis will stay as an explicit dependency.

Change log

• #163 Incomplete sentence in documentation [bug][website]
• #160 EasyMock should not depend on ASM but inline the code [enhancement][major]
• #159 Remove partial mocking deprecated methods [enhancement][major]
• #158 Shorter mock methods [core][enhancement][major]
• #155 Disable jar indexing [enhancement][minor]
• #11 User guide refers to methods not in latest release [website]

easymock-3.1

This release is mainly a bug fix release. It solves a series of long standing issues.

It is fully compatible with version 3.0 but capture methods of primitive types were deprecated
and renamed to solve compilation issues. The deprecated methods will be removed from the next
EasyMock version.

  • [EASYMOCK-104] - Expectation failure
• Task
  • [EASYMOCK-1] - Migrate build to Maven 3

easymock-3.0

Notes

EasyMock is now able to merge classes by itself.
Deprecated code from EasyMock 1 was removed.

If you don't perform class mocking, you can remove cglib and objenesis from your dependencies.

Migrating to EasyMock 3 should be painless. A deprecated class extension jar is available. So everything should
work like before. To get rid of the class extension, just remove the ".classextension" part in all your imports.

This new code base should allow quicker developments.

Changes

• Merge EasyMock and EasyMock Class Extension (2325762)
• Add "boolean capture(...)" for completude (but I don't think it's useful)
• Can't answer by delegating to a protected method (2891256)
• Failure during recording phase can impact following tests (2914683)
• Return a specific error when null is recorded as return value on a method returning a primitive type (2936175)
• Can disable class mocking with EasyMock.DISABLE_CLASS_MOCKING
• Remove deprecated classes from EasyMock 1
• Should not fail on a mock not having a toString method (2937916)
• Improved error message when matchers are mixed with raw params during method recording (2860190)
• Check there are still results available in a recorded behaviour before trying to match with it (2940400)
• Allow to mock classes from an Eclipse plugin (2994002)
• Add isNull(Class), notNull(Class) and anyObject(Class) for easier generic handling (2958636)
