Jason Gustafson updated KAFKA-12263:
------------------------------------
Description:
MockClient has a RequestMatcher interface which is used to verify that a
request received by the client matches an expected type:
{code}
@FunctionalInterface
public interface RequestMatcher {
boolean matches(AbstractRequest body);
}
{code}
The interface is awkward in practice because there is nothing we can do except
fail the test if the request does not match. But in that case, the MockClient
does not have enough context to throw a useful error explaining why the match
failed. Instead we just print a generic message about the match failure.
A better approach would probably to turn this into more of a RequestAssertion:
{code}
@FunctionalInterface
public interface RequestAssertion {
void assertRequest(AbstractRequest body);
}
{code}
Then implementations could then be constructed of a sequence of Junit
assertions. When there is a failure, we can trace it back to the specific
assertion that failed. Of course they can do that now with RequestMatcher as
well, but the expectation would be more explicit.
