Class Log4jMockPolicy

java.lang.Object
org.powermock.api.easymock.mockpolicies.Log4jMockPolicy
All Implemented Interfaces:
PowerMockPolicy
public class Log4jMockPolicy extends Object
A log4j mock policy. This mock policy deals with solving log4j related mocking issues. It takes care of loading all concerned log4j classes through the correct class-loader and automatically prepares and injects logger instances. This policy does the following:
  1. Prepares all log4j classes and interfaces for testing.
  2. All calls to the org.apache.log4j.Logger#getLogger(..) methods are intercepted and returns a nice mock of type org.apache.log4j.Logger.

  • Method Details

    • getFullyQualifiedNamesOfClassesToLoadByMockClassloader

      protected String[] getFullyQualifiedNamesOfClassesToLoadByMockClassloader()
      Loads all log4j classes with the mock classloader.
      Returns:
      The fully-qualified names of the classes that should be loaded by the mock classloader.

    • getLogFrameworkName

      protected String getLogFrameworkName()
      Returns:
      The name of the log framework. Used in error messages, for example if the getLoggerFactoryClassName() cannot be found in the classpath.

    • getLoggerClassToMock

      protected String getLoggerClassToMock()
      Returns:
      The fully-qualified class name of the class that should be mocked. The mock instance of this class will then be returned each time a specified method in the Logger Factory is invoked.

    • getLoggerFactoryClassName

      protected String getLoggerFactoryClassName()
      Returns:
      The fully-qualified class name of the Logger Factory that contains the methods that should return a mock upon invocation.

    • getLoggerMethodName

      protected String getLoggerMethodName()
      Returns:
      The name of the methods in the Logger Factory that should return a mock upon invocation.

    • applyClassLoadingPolicy

      public void applyClassLoadingPolicy(MockPolicyClassLoadingSettings settings)
      Description copied from interface: PowerMockPolicy

      Specified by:
      applyClassLoadingPolicy in interface PowerMockPolicy
      Parameters:
      settings - The settings objects where the class-loading policies can be applied.

    • applyInterceptionPolicy

      public void applyInterceptionPolicy(MockPolicyInterceptionSettings settings)
      Description copied from interface: PowerMockPolicy
      Apply the interception policies, for example which methods that should be suppressed or which methods that should be intercepted and return some else than their original value.
      Specified by:
      applyInterceptionPolicy in interface PowerMockPolicy
      Parameters:
      settings - The settings objects where the interception policies can be applied.
