Annotation Type ParametersSuppliedBy


  • @Retention(RUNTIME)
    @Target({ANNOTATION_TYPE,PARAMETER})
    public @interface ParametersSuppliedBy
    Annotating a Theory method parameter with @ParametersSuppliedBy causes it to be supplied with values from the named ParameterSupplier when run as a theory by the Theories runner. In addition, annotations themselves can be annotated with @ParametersSuppliedBy, and then used similarly. ParameterSuppliedBy annotations on parameters are detected by searching up this hierarchy such that these act as syntactic sugar, making:
     @ParametersSuppliedBy(Supplier.class)
     public @interface SpecialParameter { }
     
     @Theory
     public void theoryMethod(@SpecialParameter String param) {
       ...
     }
     
    equivalent to:
     @Theory
     public void theoryMethod(@ParametersSuppliedBy(Supplier.class) String param) {
       ...
     }
