I am new to entire ecosystem including `Scala`, `Akka` and `ScalaTest` I am working on a problem where my `Actor` gives call to external system.
case object LogProcessRequest class LProcessor extends Actor { val log = Logging(context.system, this) def receive = { case LogProcessRequest => log.debug("starting log processing") LogReaderDisruptor main(Array()) } } The `LogReaderDisruptor main(Array())` is a `Java` class that does many other things. The test I have currently looks like class LProcessorSpec extends UnitTestSpec("testSystem") { "A mocked log processor" should { "be called" in { val logProcessorActor = system.actorOf(Props[LProcessor]) logProcessorActor ! LogProcessRequest } } } where `UnitTestSpec` looks like (and inspired from [here][1]) import akka.actor.ActorSystem import akka.testkit.{ImplicitSender, TestKit} import org.scalatest.matchers.MustMatchers import org.scalatest.{BeforeAndAfterAll, WordSpecLike} abstract class UnitTestSpec(name: String) extends TestKit(ActorSystem(name)) with WordSpecLike with MustMatchers with BeforeAndAfterAll with ImplicitSender { override def afterAll() { system.shutdown() } } **Question** - How can I mock the call to `LogReaderDisruptor main(Array())` and verify that it was called? I am coming from `Java`, `JUnit`, `Mockito` land and something that I would have done here would be doNothing().when(logReaderDisruptor).main(Matchers.<String>anyVararg()) verify(logReaderDisruptor, times(1)).main(Matchers.<String>anyVararg()) I am not sure how to translate that with ScalaTest here. Also, This code may not be idiomatic, since I am very new and learning [1]: http://www.superloopy.io/articles/2013/scalatest-with-akka.html -- >>>>>>>>>> Read the docs: http://akka.io/docs/ >>>>>>>>>> Check the FAQ: >>>>>>>>>> http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/additional/faq.html >>>>>>>>>> Search the archives: https://groups.google.com/group/akka-user --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Akka User List" group.
