      7 ### Defining a Mock Class
      8 
      9 #### Mocking a Normal Class {#MockClass}
     10 
     11 Given
     12 
     13 ```cpp
     14 class Foo {
     15   ...
     16   virtual ~Foo();
     17   virtual int GetSize() const = 0;
     18   virtual string Describe(const char* name) = 0;
     19   virtual string Describe(int type) = 0;
     20   virtual bool Process(Bar elem, int count) = 0;
     21 };
     22 ```
     23 
     24 (note that `~Foo()` **must** be virtual) we can define its mock as
     25 
     26 ```cpp
     27 #include "gmock/gmock.h"
     28 
     29 class MockFoo : public Foo {
     30   ...
     31   MOCK_METHOD(int, GetSize, (), (const, override));
     32   MOCK_METHOD(string, Describe, (const char* name), (override));
     33   MOCK_METHOD(string, Describe, (int type), (override));
     34   MOCK_METHOD(bool, Process, (Bar elem, int count), (override));
     35 };
     36 ```
     37 
     38 To create a "nice" mock, which ignores all uninteresting calls, a "naggy" mock,
     39 which warns on all uninteresting calls, or a "strict" mock, which treats them as
     40 failures:
     41 
     42 ```cpp
     43 using ::testing::NiceMock;
     44 using ::testing::NaggyMock;
     45 using ::testing::StrictMock;
     46 
     47 NiceMock<MockFoo> nice_foo;      // The type is a subclass of MockFoo.
     48 NaggyMock<MockFoo> naggy_foo;    // The type is a subclass of MockFoo.
     49 StrictMock<MockFoo> strict_foo;  // The type is a subclass of MockFoo.
     50 ```
     51 
     52 **Note:** A mock object is currently naggy by default. We may make it nice by
     53 default in the future.
     54 
     55 #### Mocking a Class Template {#MockTemplate}
     56 
     57 Class templates can be mocked just like any class.
     58 
     59 To mock
     60 
     61 ```cpp
     62 template <typename Elem>
     63 class StackInterface {
     64   ...
     65   virtual ~StackInterface();
     66   virtual int GetSize() const = 0;
     67   virtual void Push(const Elem& x) = 0;
     68 };
     69 ```
     70 
     71 (note that all member functions that are mocked, including `~StackInterface()`
     72 **must** be virtual).
     73 
     74 ```cpp
     75 template <typename Elem>
     76 class MockStack : public StackInterface<Elem> {
     77   ...
     78   MOCK_METHOD(int, GetSize, (), (const, override));
     79   MOCK_METHOD(void, Push, (const Elem& x), (override));
     80 };
     81 ```
     82 
     83 #### Specifying Calling Conventions for Mock Functions
     84 
     85 If your mock function doesn't use the default calling convention, you can
     86 specify it by adding `Calltype(convention)` to `MOCK_METHOD`'s 4th parameter.
     87 For example,
     88 
     89 ```cpp
     90   MOCK_METHOD(bool, Foo, (int n), (Calltype(STDMETHODCALLTYPE)));
     91   MOCK_METHOD(int, Bar, (double x, double y),
     92               (const, Calltype(STDMETHODCALLTYPE)));
     93 ```
     94 
     95 where `STDMETHODCALLTYPE` is defined by `<objbase.h>` on Windows.
     96 
     97 ### Using Mocks in Tests {#UsingMocks}
     98 
     99 The typical work flow is:
    100 
    101 1.  Import the gMock names you need to use. All gMock symbols are in the
    102     `testing` namespace unless they are macros or otherwise noted.
    103 2.  Create the mock objects.
    104 3.  Optionally, set the default actions of the mock objects.
    105 4.  Set your expectations on the mock objects (How will they be called? What
    106     will they do?).
    107 5.  Exercise code that uses the mock objects; if necessary, check the result
    108     using googletest assertions.
    109 6.  When a mock object is destructed, gMock automatically verifies that all
    110     expectations on it have been satisfied.
    111 
    112 Here's an example:
    113 
    114 ```cpp
    115 using ::testing::Return;                          // #1
    116 
    117 TEST(BarTest, DoesThis) {
    118   MockFoo foo;                                    // #2
    119 
    120   ON_CALL(foo, GetSize())                         // #3
    121       .WillByDefault(Return(1));
    122   // ... other default actions ...
    123 
    124   EXPECT_CALL(foo, Describe(5))                   // #4
    125       .Times(3)
    126       .WillRepeatedly(Return("Category 5"));
    127   // ... other expectations ...
    128 
    129   EXPECT_EQ("good", MyProductionFunction(&foo));  // #5
    130 }                                                 // #6
    131 ```
    132 
    133 ### Setting Default Actions {#OnCall}
    134 
    135 gMock has a **built-in default action** for any function that returns `void`,
    136 `bool`, a numeric value, or a pointer. In C++11, it will additionally returns
    137 the default-constructed value, if one exists for the given type.
    138 
    139 To customize the default action for functions with return type *`T`*:
    140 
    141 ```cpp
    142 using ::testing::DefaultValue;
    143 
    144 // Sets the default value to be returned. T must be CopyConstructible.
    145 DefaultValue<T>::Set(value);
    146 // Sets a factory. Will be invoked on demand. T must be MoveConstructible.
    147 //  T MakeT();
    148 DefaultValue<T>::SetFactory(&MakeT);
    149 // ... use the mocks ...
    150 // Resets the default value.
    151 DefaultValue<T>::Clear();
    152 ```
    153 
    154 Example usage:
    155 
    156 ```cpp
    157   // Sets the default action for return type std::unique_ptr<Buzz> to
    158   // creating a new Buzz every time.
    159   DefaultValue<std::unique_ptr<Buzz>>::SetFactory(
    160       [] { return MakeUnique<Buzz>(AccessLevel::kInternal); });
    161 
    162   // When this fires, the default action of MakeBuzz() will run, which
    163   // will return a new Buzz object.
    164   EXPECT_CALL(mock_buzzer_, MakeBuzz("hello")).Times(AnyNumber());
    165 
    166   auto buzz1 = mock_buzzer_.MakeBuzz("hello");
    167   auto buzz2 = mock_buzzer_.MakeBuzz("hello");
    168   EXPECT_NE(nullptr, buzz1);
    169   EXPECT_NE(nullptr, buzz2);
    170   EXPECT_NE(buzz1, buzz2);
    171 
    172   // Resets the default action for return type std::unique_ptr<Buzz>,
    173   // to avoid interfere with other tests.
    174   DefaultValue<std::unique_ptr<Buzz>>::Clear();
    175 ```
    176 
    177 To customize the default action for a particular method of a specific mock
    178 object, use `ON_CALL()`. `ON_CALL()` has a similar syntax to `EXPECT_CALL()`,
    179 but it is used for setting default behaviors (when you do not require that the
    180 mock method is called). See [here](cook_book.md#UseOnCall) for a more detailed
    181 discussion.
    182 
    183 ```cpp
    184 ON_CALL(mock-object, method(matchers))
    185     .With(multi-argument-matcher)   ?
    186     .WillByDefault(action);
    187 ```
    188 
    189 ### Setting Expectations {#ExpectCall}
    190 
    191 `EXPECT_CALL()` sets **expectations** on a mock method (How will it be called?
    192 What will it do?):
    193 
    194 ```cpp
    195 EXPECT_CALL(mock-object, method (matchers)?)
    196      .With(multi-argument-matcher)  ?
    197      .Times(cardinality)            ?
    198      .InSequence(sequences)         *
    199      .After(expectations)           *
    200      .WillOnce(action)              *
    201      .WillRepeatedly(action)        ?
    202      .RetiresOnSaturation();        ?
    203 ```
    204 
    205 For each item above, `?` means it can be used at most once, while `*` means it
    206 can be used any number of times.
    207 
    208 In order to pass, `EXPECT_CALL` must be used before the calls are actually made.
    209 
    210 The `(matchers)` is a comma-separated list of matchers that correspond to each
    211 of the arguments of `method`, and sets the expectation only for calls of
    212 `method` that matches all of the matchers.
    213 
    214 If `(matchers)` is omitted, the expectation is the same as if the matchers were
    215 set to anything matchers (for example, `(_, _, _, _)` for a four-arg method).
    216 
    217 If `Times()` is omitted, the cardinality is assumed to be:
    218 
    219 *   `Times(1)` when there is neither `WillOnce()` nor `WillRepeatedly()`;
    220 *   `Times(n)` when there are `n` `WillOnce()`s but no `WillRepeatedly()`, where
    221     `n` >= 1; or
    222 *   `Times(AtLeast(n))` when there are `n` `WillOnce()`s and a
    223     `WillRepeatedly()`, where `n` >= 0.
    224 
    225 A method with no `EXPECT_CALL()` is free to be invoked *any number of times*,
    226 and the default action will be taken each time.
    227 
    228 ### Matchers {#MatcherList}
    229 
    230 <!-- GOOGLETEST_CM0020 DO NOT DELETE -->
    231 
    232 A **matcher** matches a *single* argument. You can use it inside `ON_CALL()` or
    233 `EXPECT_CALL()`, or use it to validate a value directly using two macros:
    234 
    235 <!-- mdformat off(github rendering does not support multiline tables) -->
    236 | Macro                                | Description                           |
    237 | :----------------------------------- | :------------------------------------ |
    238 | `EXPECT_THAT(actual_value, matcher)` | Asserts that `actual_value` matches `matcher`. |
    239 | `ASSERT_THAT(actual_value, matcher)` | The same as `EXPECT_THAT(actual_value, matcher)`, except that it generates a **fatal** failure. |
    240 <!-- mdformat on -->
    241 
    242 Built-in matchers (where `argument` is the function argument, e.g.
    243 `actual_value` in the example above, or when used in the context of
    244 `EXPECT_CALL(mock_object, method(matchers))`, the arguments of `method`) are
    245 divided into several categories:
    246 
    247 #### Wildcard
    248 
    249 Matcher                     | Description
    250 :-------------------------- | :-----------------------------------------------
    251 `_`                         | `argument` can be any value of the correct type.
    252 `A<type>()` or `An<type>()` | `argument` can be any value of type `type`.
    253 
    254 #### Generic Comparison
    255 
    256 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    257 | Matcher                | Description                                         |
    258 | :--------------------- | :-------------------------------------------------- |
    259 | `Eq(value)` or `value` | `argument == value`                                 |
    260 | `Ge(value)`            | `argument >= value`                                 |
    261 | `Gt(value)`            | `argument > value`                                  |
    262 | `Le(value)`            | `argument <= value`                                 |
    263 | `Lt(value)`            | `argument < value`                                  |
    264 | `Ne(value)`            | `argument != value`                                 |
    265 | `IsFalse()`            | `argument` evaluates to `false` in a Boolean context. |
    266 | `IsTrue()`             | `argument` evaluates to `true` in a Boolean context. |
    267 | `IsNull()`             | `argument` is a `NULL` pointer (raw or smart).      |
    268 | `NotNull()`            | `argument` is a non-null pointer (raw or smart).    |
    269 | `Optional(m)`          | `argument` is `optional<>` that contains a value matching `m`. |
    270 | `VariantWith<T>(m)`    | `argument` is `variant<>` that holds the alternative of type T with a value matching `m`. |
    271 | `Ref(variable)`        | `argument` is a reference to `variable`.            |
    272 | `TypedEq<type>(value)` | `argument` has type `type` and is equal to `value`. You may need to use this instead of `Eq(value)` when the mock function is overloaded. |
    273 <!-- mdformat on -->
    274 
    275 Except `Ref()`, these matchers make a *copy* of `value` in case it's modified or
    276 destructed later. If the compiler complains that `value` doesn't have a public
    277 copy constructor, try wrap it in `ByRef()`, e.g.
    278 `Eq(ByRef(non_copyable_value))`. If you do that, make sure `non_copyable_value`
    279 is not changed afterwards, or the meaning of your matcher will be changed.
    280 
    281 #### Floating-Point Matchers {#FpMatchers}
    282 
    283 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    284 | Matcher                          | Description                        |
    285 | :------------------------------- | :--------------------------------- |
    286 | `DoubleEq(a_double)`             | `argument` is a `double` value approximately equal to `a_double`, treating two NaNs as unequal. |
    287 | `FloatEq(a_float)`               | `argument` is a `float` value approximately equal to `a_float`, treating two NaNs as unequal. |
    288 | `NanSensitiveDoubleEq(a_double)` | `argument` is a `double` value approximately equal to `a_double`, treating two NaNs as equal. |
    289 | `NanSensitiveFloatEq(a_float)`   | `argument` is a `float` value approximately equal to `a_float`, treating two NaNs as equal. |
    290 <!-- mdformat on -->
    291 
    292 The above matchers use ULP-based comparison (the same as used in googletest).
    293 They automatically pick a reasonable error bound based on the absolute value of
    294 the expected value. `DoubleEq()` and `FloatEq()` conform to the IEEE standard,
    295 which requires comparing two NaNs for equality to return false. The
    296 `NanSensitive*` version instead treats two NaNs as equal, which is often what a
    297 user wants.
    298 
    299 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    300 | Matcher                                           | Description              |
    301 | :------------------------------------------------ | :----------------------- |
    302 | `DoubleNear(a_double, max_abs_error)`             | `argument` is a `double` value close to `a_double` (absolute error <= `max_abs_error`), treating two NaNs as unequal. |
    303 | `FloatNear(a_float, max_abs_error)`               | `argument` is a `float` value close to `a_float` (absolute error <= `max_abs_error`), treating two NaNs as unequal. |
    304 | `NanSensitiveDoubleNear(a_double, max_abs_error)` | `argument` is a `double` value close to `a_double` (absolute error <= `max_abs_error`), treating two NaNs as equal. |
    305 | `NanSensitiveFloatNear(a_float, max_abs_error)`   | `argument` is a `float` value close to `a_float` (absolute error <= `max_abs_error`), treating two NaNs as equal. |
    306 <!-- mdformat on -->
    307 
    308 #### String Matchers
    309 
    310 The `argument` can be either a C string or a C++ string object:
    311 
    312 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    313 | Matcher                 | Description                                        |
    314 | :---------------------- | :------------------------------------------------- |
    315 | `ContainsRegex(string)` | `argument` matches the given regular expression.   |
    316 | `EndsWith(suffix)`      | `argument` ends with string `suffix`.              |
    317 | `HasSubstr(string)`     | `argument` contains `string` as a sub-string.      |
    318 | `MatchesRegex(string)`  | `argument` matches the given regular expression with the match starting at the first character and ending at the last character. |
    319 | `StartsWith(prefix)`    | `argument` starts with string `prefix`.            |
    320 | `StrCaseEq(string)`     | `argument` is equal to `string`, ignoring case.    |
    321 | `StrCaseNe(string)`     | `argument` is not equal to `string`, ignoring case. |
    322 | `StrEq(string)`         | `argument` is equal to `string`.                   |
    323 | `StrNe(string)`         | `argument` is not equal to `string`.               |
    324 <!-- mdformat on -->
    325 
    326 `ContainsRegex()` and `MatchesRegex()` take ownership of the `RE` object. They
    327 use the regular expression syntax defined
    328 [here](../../googletest/docs/advanced.md#regular-expression-syntax).
    329 `StrCaseEq()`, `StrCaseNe()`, `StrEq()`, and `StrNe()` work for wide strings as
    330 well.
    331 
    332 #### Container Matchers
    333 
    334 Most STL-style containers support `==`, so you can use `Eq(expected_container)`
    335 or simply `expected_container` to match a container exactly. If you want to
    336 write the elements in-line, match them more flexibly, or get more informative
    337 messages, you can use:
    338 
    339 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    340 | Matcher                                   | Description                      |
    341 | :---------------------------------------- | :------------------------------- |
    342 | `BeginEndDistanceIs(m)` | `argument` is a container whose `begin()` and `end()` iterators are separated by a number of increments matching `m`. E.g. `BeginEndDistanceIs(2)` or `BeginEndDistanceIs(Lt(2))`. For containers that define a `size()` method, `SizeIs(m)` may be more efficient. |
    343 | `ContainerEq(container)` | The same as `Eq(container)` except that the failure message also includes which elements are in one container but not the other. |
    344 | `Contains(e)` | `argument` contains an element that matches `e`, which can be either a value or a matcher. |
    345 | `Each(e)` | `argument` is a container where *every* element matches `e`, which can be either a value or a matcher. |
    346 | `ElementsAre(e0, e1, ..., en)` | `argument` has `n + 1` elements, where the *i*-th element matches `ei`, which can be a value or a matcher. |
    347 | `ElementsAreArray({e0, e1, ..., en})`, `ElementsAreArray(a_container)`, `ElementsAreArray(begin, end)`, `ElementsAreArray(array)`, or `ElementsAreArray(array, count)` | The same as `ElementsAre()` except that the expected element values/matchers come from an initializer list, STL-style container, iterator range, or C-style array. |
    348 | `IsEmpty()` | `argument` is an empty container (`container.empty()`). |
    349 | `IsSubsetOf({e0, e1, ..., en})`, `IsSubsetOf(a_container)`, `IsSubsetOf(begin, end)`, `IsSubsetOf(array)`, or `IsSubsetOf(array, count)` | `argument` matches `UnorderedElementsAre(x0, x1, ..., xk)` for some subset `{x0, x1, ..., xk}` of the expected matchers. |
    350 | `IsSupersetOf({e0, e1, ..., en})`, `IsSupersetOf(a_container)`, `IsSupersetOf(begin, end)`, `IsSupersetOf(array)`, or `IsSupersetOf(array, count)` | Some subset of `argument` matches `UnorderedElementsAre(`expected matchers`)`. |
    351 | `Pointwise(m, container)`, `Pointwise(m, {e0, e1, ..., en})` | `argument` contains the same number of elements as in `container`, and for all i, (the i-th element in `argument`, the i-th element in `container`) match `m`, which is a matcher on 2-tuples. E.g. `Pointwise(Le(), upper_bounds)` verifies that each element in `argument` doesn't exceed the corresponding element in `upper_bounds`. See more detail below. |
    352 | `SizeIs(m)` | `argument` is a container whose size matches `m`. E.g. `SizeIs(2)` or `SizeIs(Lt(2))`. |
    353 | `UnorderedElementsAre(e0, e1, ..., en)` | `argument` has `n + 1` elements, and under *some* permutation of the elements, each element matches an `ei` (for a different `i`), which can be a value or a matcher. |
    354 | `UnorderedElementsAreArray({e0, e1, ..., en})`, `UnorderedElementsAreArray(a_container)`, `UnorderedElementsAreArray(begin, end)`, `UnorderedElementsAreArray(array)`, or `UnorderedElementsAreArray(array, count)` | The same as `UnorderedElementsAre()` except that the expected element values/matchers come from an initializer list, STL-style container, iterator range, or C-style array. |
    355 | `UnorderedPointwise(m, container)`, `UnorderedPointwise(m, {e0, e1, ..., en})` | Like `Pointwise(m, container)`, but ignores the order of elements. |
    356 | `WhenSorted(m)` | When `argument` is sorted using the `<` operator, it matches container matcher `m`. E.g. `WhenSorted(ElementsAre(1, 2, 3))` verifies that `argument` contains elements 1, 2, and 3, ignoring order. |
    357 | `WhenSortedBy(comparator, m)` | The same as `WhenSorted(m)`, except that the given comparator instead of `<` is used to sort `argument`. E.g. `WhenSortedBy(std::greater(), ElementsAre(3, 2, 1))`. |

    360 **Notes:**
    361 
    362 *   These matchers can also match:
    363     1.  a native array passed by reference (e.g. in `Foo(const int (&a)[5])`),
    364         and
    365     2.  an array passed as a pointer and a count (e.g. in `Bar(const T* buffer,
    366         int len)` -- see [Multi-argument Matchers](#MultiArgMatchers)).
    367 *   The array being matched may be multi-dimensional (i.e. its elements can be
    368     arrays).
    369 *   `m` in `Pointwise(m, ...)` should be a matcher for `::std::tuple<T, U>`
    370     where `T` and `U` are the element type of the actual container and the
    371     expected container, respectively. For example, to compare two `Foo`
    372     containers where `Foo` doesn't support `operator==`, one might write:
    373 
    374     ```cpp
    375     using ::std::get;
    376     MATCHER(FooEq, "") {
    377       return std::get<0>(arg).Equals(std::get<1>(arg));
    378     }
    379     ...
    380     EXPECT_THAT(actual_foos, Pointwise(FooEq(), expected_foos));
    381     ```

    388 | `Field(&class::field, m)`       | `argument.field` (or `argument->field` when `argument` is a plain pointer) matches matcher `m`, where `argument` is an object of type _class_. |
    389 | `Key(e)`                        | `argument.first` matches `e`, which can be either a value or a matcher. E.g. `Contains(Key(Le(5)))` can verify that a `map` contains a key `<= 5`. |
    390 | `Pair(m1, m2)`                  | `argument` is an `std::pair` whose `first` field matches `m1` and `second` field matches `m2`. |

    415 #### Multi-argument Matchers {#MultiArgMatchers}
    416 
    417 Technically, all matchers match a *single* value. A "multi-argument" matcher is
    418 just one that matches a *tuple*. The following matchers can be used to match a
    419 tuple `(x, y)`:
    420 
    421 Matcher | Description
    422 :------ | :----------
    423 `Eq()`  | `x == y`
    424 `Ge()`  | `x >= y`
    425 `Gt()`  | `x > y`
    426 `Le()`  | `x <= y`
    427 `Lt()`  | `x < y`
    428 `Ne()`  | `x != y`
    429 
    430 You can use the following selectors to pick a subset of the arguments (or
    431 reorder them) to participate in the matching:
    432 
    433 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    434 | Matcher                    | Description                                     |
    435 | :------------------------- | :---------------------------------------------- |
    436 | `AllArgs(m)`               | Equivalent to `m`. Useful as syntactic sugar in `.With(AllArgs(m))`. |
    437 | `Args<N1, N2, ..., Nk>(m)` | The tuple of the `k` selected (using 0-based indices) arguments matches `m`, e.g. `Args<1, 2>(Eq())`. |
    438 <!-- mdformat on -->
    439 
    440 #### Composite Matchers
    441 
    442 You can make a matcher from one or more other matchers:
    443 
    444 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    445 | Matcher                          | Description                             |
    446 | :------------------------------- | :-------------------------------------- |
    447 | `AllOf(m1, m2, ..., mn)` | `argument` matches all of the matchers `m1` to `mn`. |
    448 | `AllOfArray({m0, m1, ..., mn})`, `AllOfArray(a_container)`, `AllOfArray(begin, end)`, `AllOfArray(array)`, or `AllOfArray(array, count)` | The same as `AllOf()` except that the matchers come from an initializer list, STL-style container, iterator range, or C-style array. |
    449 | `AnyOf(m1, m2, ..., mn)` | `argument` matches at least one of the matchers `m1` to `mn`. |
    450 | `AnyOfArray({m0, m1, ..., mn})`, `AnyOfArray(a_container)`, `AnyOfArray(begin, end)`, `AnyOfArray(array)`, or `AnyOfArray(array, count)` | The same as `AnyOf()` except that the matchers come from an initializer list, STL-style container, iterator range, or C-style array. |
    451 | `Not(m)` | `argument` doesn't match matcher `m`. |

    459 | Matcher                 | Description                           |
    460 | :---------------------- | :------------------------------------ |
    461 | `MatcherCast<T>(m)`     | casts matcher `m` to type `Matcher<T>`. |
    462 | `SafeMatcherCast<T>(m)` | [safely casts](cook_book.md#casting-matchers) matcher `m` to type `Matcher<T>`. |
    463 | `Truly(predicate)`      | `predicate(argument)` returns something considered by C++ to be true, where `predicate` is a function or functor. |
    464 <!-- mdformat on -->
    465 
    466 `AddressSatisfies(callback)` and `Truly(callback)` take ownership of `callback`,
    467 which must be a permanent callback.

    473 | :---------------------------- | :------------------------------------------ |
    474 | `Matches(m)(value)` | evaluates to `true` if `value` matches `m`. You can use `Matches(m)` alone as a unary functor. |
    475 | `ExplainMatchResult(m, value, result_listener)` | evaluates to `true` if `value` matches `m`, explaining the result to `result_listener`. |
    476 | `Value(value, m)` | evaluates to `true` if `value` matches `m`. |

    483 | :----------------------------------- | :------------------------------------ |
    484 | `MATCHER(IsEven, "") { return (arg % 2) == 0; }` | Defines a matcher `IsEven()` to match an even number. |
    485 | `MATCHER_P(IsDivisibleBy, n, "") { *result_listener << "where the remainder is " << (arg % n); return (arg % n) == 0; }` | Defines a macher `IsDivisibleBy(n)` to match a number divisible by `n`. |
    486 | `MATCHER_P2(IsBetween, a, b, std::string(negation ? "isn't" : "is") + " between " + PrintToString(a) + " and " + PrintToString(b)) { return a <= arg && arg <= b; }` | Defines a matcher `IsBetween(a, b)` to match a value in the range [`a`, `b`]. |
    487 <!-- mdformat on -->
    488 
    489 **Notes:**
    490 
    491 1.  The `MATCHER*` macros cannot be used inside a function or class.
    492 2.  The matcher body must be *purely functional* (i.e. it cannot have any side
    493     effect, and the result must not depend on anything other than the value
    494     being matched and the matcher parameters).
    495 3.  You can use `PrintToString(x)` to convert a value `x` of any type to a
    496     string.
    497 
    498 ### Actions {#ActionList}
    499 
    500 **Actions** specify what a mock function should do when invoked.
    501 
    502 #### Returning a Value
    503 
    504 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    505 |                             |                                               |
    506 | :-------------------------- | :-------------------------------------------- |
    507 | `Return()`                  | Return from a `void` mock function.           |
    508 | `Return(value)`             | Return `value`. If the type of `value` is     different to the mock function's return type, `value` is converted to the latter type <i>at the time the expectation is set</i>, not when the action is executed. |
    509 | `ReturnArg<N>()`            | Return the `N`-th (0-based) argument.         |
    510 | `ReturnNew<T>(a1, ..., ak)` | Return `new T(a1, ..., ak)`; a different      object is created each time. |
    511 | `ReturnNull()`              | Return a null pointer.                        |
    512 | `ReturnPointee(ptr)`        | Return the value pointed to by `ptr`.         |
    513 | `ReturnRef(variable)`       | Return a reference to `variable`.             |
    514 | `ReturnRefOfCopy(value)`    | Return a reference to a copy of `value`; the  copy lives as long as the action. |

    517 #### Side Effects
    518 
    519 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    520 |                                    |                                         |
    521 | :--------------------------------- | :-------------------------------------- |
    522 | `Assign(&variable, value)` | Assign `value` to variable. |
    523 | `DeleteArg<N>()` | Delete the `N`-th (0-based) argument, which must be a pointer. |
    524 | `SaveArg<N>(pointer)` | Save the `N`-th (0-based) argument to `*pointer`. |
    525 | `SaveArgPointee<N>(pointer)` | Save the value pointed to by the `N`-th (0-based) argument to `*pointer`. |
    526 | `SetArgReferee<N>(value)` | Assign value to the variable referenced by the `N`-th (0-based) argument. |
    527 | `SetArgPointee<N>(value)` | Assign `value` to the variable pointed by the `N`-th (0-based) argument. |
    528 | `SetArgumentPointee<N>(value)` | Same as `SetArgPointee<N>(value)`. Deprecated. Will be removed in v1.7.0. |
    529 | `SetArrayArgument<N>(first, last)` | Copies the elements in source range [`first`, `last`) to the array pointed to by the `N`-th (0-based) argument, which can be either a pointer or an iterator. The action does not take ownership of the elements in the source range. |
    530 | `SetErrnoAndReturn(error, value)` | Set `errno` to `error` and return `value`. |
    531 | `Throw(exception)` | Throws the given exception, which can be any copyable value. Available since v1.1.0. |
    532 <!-- mdformat on -->
    533 
    534 #### Using a Function, Functor, or Lambda as an Action
    535 
    536 In the following, by "callable" we mean a free function, `std::function`,
    537 functor, or lambda.
    538 
    539 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    540 |                                     |                                        |
    541 | :---------------------------------- | :------------------------------------- |
    542 | `f` | Invoke f with the arguments passed to the mock function, where f is a callable. |
    543 | `Invoke(f)` | Invoke `f` with the arguments passed to the mock function, where `f` can be a global/static function or a functor. |
    544 | `Invoke(object_pointer, &class::method)` | Invoke the method on the object with the arguments passed to the mock function. |
    545 | `InvokeWithoutArgs(f)` | Invoke `f`, which can be a global/static function or a functor. `f` must take no arguments. |
    546 | `InvokeWithoutArgs(object_pointer, &class::method)` | Invoke the method on the object, which takes no arguments. |
    547 | `InvokeArgument<N>(arg1, arg2, ..., argk)` | Invoke the mock function's `N`-th (0-based) argument, which must be a function or a functor, with the `k` arguments. |
    548 <!-- mdformat on -->
    549 
    550 The return value of the invoked function is used as the return value of the
    551 action.
    552 
    553 When defining a callable to be used with `Invoke*()`, you can declare any unused
    554 parameters as `Unused`:
    555 
    556 ```cpp
    557 using ::testing::Invoke;
    558 double Distance(Unused, double x, double y) { return sqrt(x*x + y*y); }
    559 ...
    560 EXPECT_CALL(mock, Foo("Hi", _, _)).WillOnce(Invoke(Distance));
    561 ```
    562 
    563 `Invoke(callback)` and `InvokeWithoutArgs(callback)` take ownership of
    564 `callback`, which must be permanent. The type of `callback` must be a base
    565 callback type instead of a derived one, e.g.
    566 
    567 ```cpp
    568   BlockingClosure* done = new BlockingClosure;
    569   ... Invoke(done) ...;  // This won't compile!
    570 
    571   Closure* done2 = new BlockingClosure;
    572   ... Invoke(done2) ...;  // This works.
    573 ```
    574 
    575 In `InvokeArgument<N>(...)`, if an argument needs to be passed by reference,
    576 wrap it inside `ByRef()`. For example,
    577 
    578 ```cpp
    579 using ::testing::ByRef;
    580 using ::testing::InvokeArgument;
    581 ...
    582 InvokeArgument<2>(5, string("Hi"), ByRef(foo))
    583 ```
    584 
    585 calls the mock function's #2 argument, passing to it `5` and `string("Hi")` by
    586 value, and `foo` by reference.
    587

    589

    607 | `IgnoreResult(a)`              | Perform action `a` and ignore its result. `a` must not return void. |
    608 | `WithArg<N>(a)`                | Pass the `N`-th (0-based) argument of the mock function to action `a` and perform it. |

    631 | `ACTION(Sum) { return arg0 + arg1; }` | Defines an action `Sum()` to return the sum of the mock function's argument #0 and #1. |
    632 | `ACTION_P(Plus, n) { return arg0 + n; }` | Defines an action `Plus(n)` to return the sum of the mock function's argument #0 and `n`. |
    633 | `ACTION_Pk(Foo, p1, ..., pk) { statements; }` | Defines a parameterized action `Foo(p1, ..., pk)` to execute the given `statements`. |

    638 ### Cardinalities {#CardinalityList}
    639 
    640 These are used in `Times()` to specify how many times a mock function will be
    641 called:
    642 
    643 <!-- mdformat off(no multiline tables) -->
    644 |                   |                                                        |
    645 | :---------------- | :----------------------------------------------------- |
    646 | `AnyNumber()`     | The function can be called any number of times.        |
    647 | `AtLeast(n)`      | The call is expected at least `n` times.               |
    648 | `AtMost(n)`       | The call is expected at most `n` times.                |
    649 | `Between(m, n)`   | The call is expected between `m` and `n` (inclusive) times. |
    650 | `Exactly(n) or n` | The call is expected exactly `n` times. In particular, the call should never happen when `n` is 0. |

    652 
    653 ### Expectation Order
    654 
    655 By default, the expectations can be matched in *any* order. If some or all
    656 expectations must be matched in a given order, there are two ways to specify it.
    657 They can be used either independently or together.
    658 
    659 #### The After Clause {#AfterClause}
    660 
    661 ```cpp
    662 using ::testing::Expectation;
    663 ...
    664 Expectation init_x = EXPECT_CALL(foo, InitX());
    665 Expectation init_y = EXPECT_CALL(foo, InitY());
    666 EXPECT_CALL(foo, Bar())
    667      .After(init_x, init_y);
    668 ```
    669 
    670 says that `Bar()` can be called only after both `InitX()` and `InitY()` have
    671 been called.
    672 
    673 If you don't know how many pre-requisites an expectation has when you write it,
    674 you can use an `ExpectationSet` to collect them:
    675 
    676 ```cpp
    677 using ::testing::ExpectationSet;
    678 ...
    679 ExpectationSet all_inits;
    680 for (int i = 0; i < element_count; i++) {
    681   all_inits += EXPECT_CALL(foo, InitElement(i));
    682 }
    683 EXPECT_CALL(foo, Bar())
    684      .After(all_inits);
    685 ```
    686 
    687 says that `Bar()` can be called only after all elements have been initialized
    688 (but we don't care about which elements get initialized before the others).
    689 
    690 Modifying an `ExpectationSet` after using it in an `.After()` doesn't affect the
    691 meaning of the `.After()`.
    692 
    693 #### Sequences {#UsingSequences}
    694 
    695 When you have a long chain of sequential expectations, it's easier to specify
    696 the order using **sequences**, which don't require you to given each expectation
    697 in the chain a different name. *All expected calls* in the same sequence must
    698 occur in the order they are specified.
    699 
    700 ```cpp
    701 using ::testing::Return;
    702 using ::testing::Sequence;
    703 Sequence s1, s2;
    704 ...
    705 EXPECT_CALL(foo, Reset())
    706     .InSequence(s1, s2)
    707     .WillOnce(Return(true));
    708 EXPECT_CALL(foo, GetSize())
    709     .InSequence(s1)
    710     .WillOnce(Return(1));
    711 EXPECT_CALL(foo, Describe(A<const char*>()))
    712     .InSequence(s2)
    713     .WillOnce(Return("dummy"));
    714 ```
    715 
    716 says that `Reset()` must be called before *both* `GetSize()` *and* `Describe()`,
    717 and the latter two can occur in any order.
    718 
    719 To put many expectations in a sequence conveniently:
    720 
    721 ```cpp
    722 using ::testing::InSequence;
    723 {
    724   InSequence seq;
    725 
    726   EXPECT_CALL(...)...;
    727   EXPECT_CALL(...)...;
    728   ...
    729   EXPECT_CALL(...)...;
    730 }
    731 ```
    732 
    733 says that all expected calls in the scope of `seq` must occur in strict order.
    734 The name `seq` is irrelevant.
    735 
    736 ### Verifying and Resetting a Mock
    737 
    738 gMock will verify the expectations on a mock object when it is destructed, or
    739 you can do it earlier:
    740 
    741 ```cpp
    742 using ::testing::Mock;
    743 ...
    744 // Verifies and removes the expectations on mock_obj;
    745 // returns true if and only if successful.
    746 Mock::VerifyAndClearExpectations(&mock_obj);
    747 ...
    748 // Verifies and removes the expectations on mock_obj;
    749 // also removes the default actions set by ON_CALL();
    750 // returns true if and only if successful.
    751 Mock::VerifyAndClear(&mock_obj);
    752 ```
    753 
    754 You can also tell gMock that a mock object can be leaked and doesn't need to be
    755 verified:
    756 
    757 ```cpp
    758 Mock::AllowLeak(&mock_obj);
    759 ```
    760 
    761 ### Mock Classes
    762 
    763 gMock defines a convenient mock class template
    764 
    765 ```cpp
    766 class MockFunction<R(A1, ..., An)> {
    767  public:
    768   MOCK_METHOD(R, Call, (A1, ..., An));
    769 };
    770 ```
    771 
    772 See this [recipe](cook_book.md#using-check-points) for one application of it.
    773
