Fail fast if invocation matches never expectation
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Previously when an invocation matched an expectation which did not allow
invocations (i.e. `Expectation#never` had been called on it), but the
invocation also matched another expectation which did allow invocations,
then the test would not fail with an unexpected invocation error.

This was happening because neither the `if` condition was `true`,
because the "never" expectation was not returned by
`ExpectationList#match_allowing_invocation`, but the other expectation
allowing expectations was returned. Thus `Expectation#invoke` was called
on the latter and `Mock#raise_unexpected_invocation_error` was not
called.

This behaviour was confusing and had led to a number of issues being
raised over the years: #44, #131, #490 & most recently #678. Previously
I had thought this was a symptom of the JMock v1 dispatch behaviour
(which _might_ still be true) and thus would be best addressed by
adopting the JMock v2 dispatch behaviour (#173). However, having
considered this specific scenario involving a "never" expectation, I've
decided to try to fix it with the changes in this commit.

Now a test like this will fail with an unexpected invocation error:

    mock = mock('mock')
    mock.stubs(:method)
    mock.expects(:method).never
    mock.method

    unexpected invocation: #<Mock:mock>.method()
    unsatisfied expectations:
    - expected never, invoked once: #<Mock:mock>.method(any_parameters)
    satisfied expectations:
    - allowed any number of times, invoked never: #<Mock:mock>.method(any_parameters)

Closes #678. Also addresses #490, #131 & #44.
