Creating a MockNeat object

Important Note: The library the documentation has moved to www.mockneat.com. The information found on this wiki is quite outdated. Please check the new site.

---

MockNeat is the main class of the library and the source of all evil.

To obtain a MockNeat instance:

• Re-use the default instance of a MockNeat class that internally uses a ThreadLocalRandom implementation from the Java library.

MockNeat mock = MockNeat.threadLocal();

• Re-use the default instance of a MockNeat class that internally uses a SecureRandom implementation from the Java library.

MockNeat mock = MockNeat.secure();

• Re-use the default instance of a MockNeat class that internally uses the old Random class from the Java library.

MockNeat mock = MockNeat.old();

• Call the constructor:

Long seed = 123l;
MockNeat mock = new MockNeat(RandomType.SECURE, seed);

RandomType.SECURE is the only type that supports seeding.

If you try to create a MockNeat object of other type (eg.: RandomType.THREAD_LOCAL) an exception will be thrown:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
	at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadLocalRandom.setSeed(ThreadLocalRandom.java:191)
