Overview¶
Package gomock is a mock framework for Go.
Standard usage:
(1) Define an interface that you wish to mock. type MyInterface interface { SomeMethod(x int64, y string) }(2) Use mockgen to generate a mock from the interface.(3) Use the mock in a test: func TestMyThing(t *testing.T) { mockCtrl := gomock.NewController(t) mockObj := something.NewMockMyInterface(mockCtrl) mockObj.EXPECT().SomeMethod(4, "blah") // pass mockObj to a real object and play with it. }By default, expected calls are not enforced to run in any particular order.Call order dependency can be enforced by use of InOrder and/or Call.After.Call.After can create more varied call order dependencies, but InOrder isoften more convenient.
The following examples create equivalent call order dependencies.
Example of using Call.After to chain expected call order:
firstCall := mockObj.EXPECT().SomeMethod(1, "first")secondCall := mockObj.EXPECT().SomeMethod(2, "second").After(firstCall)mockObj.EXPECT().SomeMethod(3, "third").After(secondCall)
Example of using InOrder to declare expected call order:
gomock.InOrder( mockObj.EXPECT().SomeMethod(1, "first"), mockObj.EXPECT().SomeMethod(2, "second"), mockObj.EXPECT().SomeMethod(3, "third"),)
The standard TestReporter most users will pass to `NewController` is a`*testing.T` from the context of the test. Note that this will use thestandard `t.Error` and `t.Fatal` methods to report what happened in the test.In some cases this can leave your testing package in a weird state if globalstate is used since `t.Fatal` is like calling panic in the middle of afunction. In these cases it is recommended that you pass in your own`TestReporter`.

Functions¶
funcInOrder¶
func InOrder(args ...any)
InOrder declares that the given calls should occur in order.It panics if the type of any of the arguments isn't *Call or a generatedmock with an embedded *Call.
funcWithOverridableExpectations¶added inv0.2.0
func WithOverridableExpectations() overridableExpectationsOption
WithOverridableExpectations allows for overridable call expectationsi.e., subsequent call expectations override existing call expectations
Types¶
typeCall¶
type Call struct {// contains filtered or unexported fields}Call represents an expected call to a mock.
func (*Call)Do¶
Do declares the action to run when the call is matched. The function'sreturn values are ignored to retain backward compatibility. To use thereturn values call DoAndReturn.It takes an any argument to support n-arity functions.The anonymous function must match the function signature mocked method.
func (*Call)DoAndReturn¶
DoAndReturn declares the action to run when the call is matched.The return values from this function are returned by the mocked function.It takes an any argument to support n-arity functions.The anonymous function must match the function signature mocked method.
Example (CaptureArguments)¶
t := &testing.T{} // provided by testctrl := gomock.NewController(t)mockIndex := NewMockFoo(ctrl)var s stringmockIndex.EXPECT().Bar(gomock.AssignableToTypeOf(s)).DoAndReturn(func(arg string) any {s = argreturn "I'm sleepy"},)r := mockIndex.Bar("foo")fmt.Printf("%s %s", r, s)Output:I'm sleepy foo
Example (Latency)¶
t := &testing.T{} // provided by testctrl := gomock.NewController(t)mockIndex := NewMockFoo(ctrl)mockIndex.EXPECT().Bar(gomock.Any()).DoAndReturn(func(arg string) string {time.Sleep(1 * time.Millisecond)return "I'm sleepy"},)r := mockIndex.Bar("foo")fmt.Println(r)Output:I'm sleepy
Example (WithOverridableExpectations)¶
t := &testing.T{} // provided by testctrl := gomock.NewController(t, gomock.WithOverridableExpectations())mockIndex := NewMockFoo(ctrl)var s stringmockIndex.EXPECT().Bar(gomock.AssignableToTypeOf(s)).DoAndReturn(func(arg string) any {s = argreturn "I'm sleepy"},)r := mockIndex.Bar("foo")fmt.Printf("%s %s", r, s)Output:I'm sleepy foo
func (*Call)MaxTimes¶
MaxTimes limits the number of calls to n times. If AnyTimes or MinTimes have not been called or if MinTimes waspreviously called with 1, MaxTimes also sets the minimum number of calls to 0.
func (*Call)MinTimes¶
MinTimes requires the call to occur at least n times. If AnyTimes or MaxTimes have not been called or if MaxTimeswas previously called with 1, MinTimes also sets the maximum number of calls to infinity.
typeController¶
type Controller struct {// T should only be called within a generated mock. It is not intended to// be used in user code and may be changed in future versions. T is the// TestReporter passed in when creating the Controller via NewController.// If the TestReporter does not implement a TestHelper it will be wrapped// with a nopTestHelper.TTestHelper// contains filtered or unexported fields}A Controller represents the top-level control of a mock ecosystem. Itdefines the scope and lifetime of mock objects, as well as theirexpectations. It is safe to call Controller's methods from multiplegoroutines. Each test should create a new Controller.
func TestFoo(t *testing.T) { ctrl := gomock.NewController(t) // ..}func TestBar(t *testing.T) { t.Run("Sub-Test-1", st) { ctrl := gomock.NewController(st) // .. }) t.Run("Sub-Test-2", st) { ctrl := gomock.NewController(st) // .. })})funcNewController¶
func NewController(tTestReporter, opts ...ControllerOption) *Controller
NewController returns a new Controller. It is the preferred way to create a Controller.
Passing*testing.T registers cleanup function to automatically callController.Finishwhen the test and all its subtests complete.
funcWithContext¶
func WithContext(ctxcontext.Context, tTestReporter) (*Controller,context.Context)
WithContext returns a new Controller and a Context, which is cancelled on anyfatal failure.
func (*Controller)Call¶
func (ctrl *Controller) Call(receiverany, methodstring, args ...any) []any
Call is called by a mock. It should not be called by user code.
func (*Controller)Finish¶
func (ctrl *Controller) Finish()
Finish checks to see if all the methods that were expected to be called were called.It is not idempotent and therefore can only be invoked once.
Note: If you pass a *testing.T intoNewController, you no longerneed to call ctrl.Finish() in your test methods.
func (*Controller)RecordCall¶
func (ctrl *Controller) RecordCall(receiverany, methodstring, args ...any) *Call
RecordCall is called by a mock. It should not be called by user code.
func (*Controller)RecordCallWithMethodType¶
func (ctrl *Controller) RecordCallWithMethodType(receiverany, methodstring, methodTypereflect.Type, args ...any) *Call
RecordCallWithMethodType is called by a mock. It should not be called by user code.
func (*Controller)Satisfied¶added inv0.2.0
func (ctrl *Controller) Satisfied()bool
Satisfied returns whether all expected calls bound to this Controller have been satisfied.Calling Finish is then guaranteed to not fail due to missing calls.
typeControllerOption¶added inv0.2.0
type ControllerOption interface {// contains filtered or unexported methods}ControllerOption configures how a Controller should behave.
typeGotFormatter¶
type GotFormatter interface {// Got is invoked with the received value. The result is used when// printing the failure message.Got(gotany)string}GotFormatter is used to better print failure messages. If a matcherimplements GotFormatter, it will use the result from Got when printingthe failure message.
typeGotFormatterFunc¶
GotFormatterFunc type is an adapter to allow the use of ordinaryfunctions as a GotFormatter. If f is a function with the appropriatesignature, GotFormatterFunc(f) is a GotFormatter that calls f.
typeMatcher¶
type Matcher interface {// Matches returns whether x is a match.Matches(xany)bool// String describes what the matcher matches.String()string}A Matcher is a representation of a class of values.It is used to represent the valid or expected arguments to a mocked method.
funcAll¶
All returns a composite Matcher that returns true if and only all of thematchers return true.
funcAnyOf¶added inv0.4.0
AnyOf returns a composite Matcher that returns true if at least one of thematchers returns true.
Example usage:
AnyOf(1, 2, 3).Matches(2) // returns trueAnyOf(1, 2, 3).Matches(10) // returns falseAnyOf(Nil(), Len(2)).Matches(nil) // returns trueAnyOf(Nil(), Len(2)).Matches("hi") // returns trueAnyOf(Nil(), Len(2)).Matches("hello") // returns falsefuncAssignableToTypeOf¶
AssignableToTypeOf is a Matcher that matches if the parameter to the mockfunction is assignable to the type of the parameter to this function.
Example usage:
var s fmt.Stringer = &bytes.Buffer{}AssignableToTypeOf(s).Matches(time.Second) // returns trueAssignableToTypeOf(s).Matches(99) // returns falsevar ctx = reflect.TypeOf((*context.Context)(nil)).Elem()AssignableToTypeOf(ctx).Matches(context.Background()) // returns truefuncCond¶added inv0.3.0
Cond returns a matcher that matches when the given function returns trueafter passing it the parameter to the mock function.This is particularly useful in case you want to match over a field of a custom struct, or dynamic logic.
Example usage:
Cond(func(x int){return x == 1}).Matches(1) // returns trueCond(func(x int){return x == 2}).Matches(1) // returns falsefuncEq¶
Eq returns a matcher that matches on equality.
Example usage:
Eq(5).Matches(5) // returns trueEq(5).Matches(4) // returns false
funcGotFormatterAdapter¶
func GotFormatterAdapter(sGotFormatter, mMatcher)Matcher
GotFormatterAdapter attaches a GotFormatter to a Matcher.
funcInAnyOrder¶
InAnyOrder is a Matcher that returns true for collections of the same elements ignoring the order.
Example usage:
InAnyOrder([]int{1, 2, 3}).Matches([]int{1, 3, 2}) // returns trueInAnyOrder([]int{1, 2, 3}).Matches([]int{1, 2}) // returns falsefuncLen¶
Len returns a matcher that matches on length. This matcher returns false ifis compared to a type that is not an array, chan, map, slice, or string.
funcNil¶
func Nil()Matcher
Nil returns a matcher that matches if the received value is nil.
Example usage:
var x *bytes.BufferNil().Matches(x) // returns truex = &bytes.Buffer{}Nil().Matches(x) // returns falsefuncNot¶
Not reverses the results of its given child matcher.
Example usage:
Not(Eq(5)).Matches(4) // returns trueNot(Eq(5)).Matches(5) // returns false
funcRegex¶added inv0.4.0
Regex checks whether parameter matches the associated regex.
Example usage:
Regex("[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}").Matches("23:02") // returns trueRegex("[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}").Matches([]byte{'2', '3', ':', '0', '2'}) // returns trueRegex("[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}").Matches("hello world") // returns falseRegex("[0-9]{2}").Matches(21) // returns false as it's not a valid typetypeStringerFunc¶
type StringerFunc func()string
StringerFunc type is an adapter to allow the use of ordinary functions asa Stringer. If f is a function with the appropriate signature,StringerFunc(f) is a Stringer that calls f.
typeTestHelper¶
type TestHelper interface {TestReporterHelper()}TestHelper is a TestReporter that has the Helper method. It is satisfiedby the standard library's *testing.T.
