groovy / grails / unit testing / createCriteria.get

Question

I can mock calls to:

MyDomainClass.createCriteria().list{
    eq(\'id\',id)
    eq(\'anotherParameter\',anotherParameterId)
}

with:

<         


        

Answer 1

I've found a solution that doesn't compromise my ability to write unit tests -

def myCriteria = new Expando();
myCriteria .get = {Closure  cls -> returnThisObject}         
MyDomainClass.metaClass.static.createCriteria = {myCriteria }

which does exactly what I wanted and potentially supports testing supplied arguments. Thanks for the other response. Hope this is useful to others testing domain/createCriteria() methods.
