Not 100% sure about that one - though even that they were sued is an issue. Note that part of this is also that worker's comp excludes farm labor. So you can't get compensated through workers comp. https://national

With Mockito, I can mock the returned result of someCall(). However, it also means mocking list.stream() and mocking the Stream for stream.filter() and mock the call stream.toList() to return a new mocked object that has those mocks on it

Yes. The test passes. https://imgur.com/a/4qlTKlc To try to monkey patch this in, you would need to also assert that it wasn't called with [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]. At which point, I would again ask "why are you

That wouldn't fail though. It was called only once with [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]. The second time it was called with [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]. Likewise, if some_call returned [2, 4, 6, 8, 10] instead, it should only be called with

The python code would be def some_call(): return [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] def print_evens(nums): for n in filter(lambda n: n % 2 == 0, nums): print(n) def func(): filtered =

In functions that you write, that might be possible. How would you assert that a given std::vector only was filtered by std::ranges::copy_if once? And how would you test that the code that was in the predicate for it wasn't duplicated?

Trying to write the easiest code that I could test... I don't think I can without writing an excessively brittle test that would break at the slightest implementation change. So you've got this Java: public List<Integer

In C++, the code would look like: #include <vector> #include <iostream> #include <algorithm> std::vector<int> someCall() { return {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}; } void printE

by shagie 9mo ago
How would you suggest tests around: void func() { printEvens(someCall().stream().filter(n -> n % 2 == 0).toList()); } void printEvens(List<Integer> nums) { nums.stream().filter(n -> n % 2 == 0).for

The code works perfectly - there is no issue that a unit test could catch... unless you are spying on internally created objects to a method and verifying that certain functions are called some number of times for given data.

Because 'obj' is an object that was generated by a json schema and pulled in as a dependency. The pojo generator was not set up to create immutable objects.
