[ovirt-devel] MockConfigRule for default values

​​ Hi all, One of my long time frustrations with MockConfigRule was the bloating it caused by forcing you to mock each and every ConfigValue you may use, when more often than not you don't really care about the value but just was your test to not fail with a NullPointerException. I've recently merged a series of patches to address this and return the default value for any ConfigValues that is not explicitly specified. In other words, this aligns MockConfigRule's behavior with the production code - if a value is specified, return it, and if not, return the default from the annotation. This change has no effect on values you explicitly mock, and if you particularly need a certain ConfigValues to return null, you may state so implicitly, either inline when you construct the Rule: @Rule public static MockConfigRule mcr = new MockConfigRule(mockConfig(ConfigValues.SomeValue, null)); Or later on when you need it: @Test public void someTest() { mcr.mockConfigValue(ConfigValues.SomeOtherValue, null); } Additional details can be found on the website: http://www.ovirt.org/develop/dev-process/unit-testing-utilities/mockconfi... -Allon
