Question: arguments pattern matching.

[xantrac]

Is the Mimic expected behavior to fail an expectation if the original implementation gets called with different arguments than the one defined in the expect function?

defmodule Test do
 def call(arg), do: true
end

Test
|> expect(:call, 1, fn 2 -> true end)

Test.call(3)

Is the above supposed to fail verification?

[edgurgel]

Yup you should see a function clause error I think.

[xantrac]

Ok, it doesn't for me, but the counter expectation still verifies correctly.

[edgurgel]

Do you have a full test case file to share so we can replicate it? Cause testing quickly with mimic tests it seems to work as intended:

This is the test

  describe "mark_order_ready" do
    test "updates the ready_at field and send a message to the costumer", %{account: account} do
      order = order_fixture(account)

      ExTwilio.Message
      |> expect(:create, 1, fn %{
                                 body: "this",
                                 from: "is not",
                                 to: "correct"
                               } ->
        nil
      end)

      Enum.each(order.order_items, &Orders.mark_order_item_dug(&1))
      order = Orders.get_order(order.id)

      assert order.ready_at == nil

      {:ok, order} = Orders.mark_order_ready(order)

      assert order.ready_at == Timex.now() |> DateTime.truncate(:second)
      Oban.drain_queue(queue: :default)
    end
  end

This is the implementation

  defp send_message(recipient, message) do
    if env() == :dev do
      Logger.info("SMS - from: #{phone_number()}, to: #{recipient}, message: #{message}")
    else
      ExTwilio.Message.create(%{from: phone_number(), body: message, to: recipient})
    end
  end

This test is green independently from the arguments. Changing the number of calls fails as expected.

[edgurgel]

Sorry I mean a minimal reproducible code that we can see failing. It's hard to understand what is going on here, how is the test helper setup to copy mimic etc etc

[xantrac]

Ok, I was able to get the test failing removing the Oban job and running the execution synchronously.

1) test mark_order_ready it updates the ready_at field and send a message to the costumer (OrdersTest)
     test/orders_test.exs:109
     ** (FunctionClauseError) no function clause matching in anonymous fn/1 in OrdersTest."test mark_order_ready it updates the ready_at field and send a message to the costumer"/1

     The following arguments were given to anonymous fn/1 in OrdersTest."test mark_order_ready it updates the ready_at field and send a message to the costumer"/1:

         # 1
         %{body: "Your order d41ef143 from is ready to pick up", from: nil, to: "6676162962"}

[edgurgel]

I see. Your issue might be related to async execution from a different process https://github.com/edgurgel/mimic#private-and-global-mode . You can either make it global or allow specific process if you have such info.

[xantrac]

Ok, I'll look into that and I'll report back.

[xantrac]

So I did make the expectation global with set_mimic_global() but I got the same outcome.
