I woudl guess that you use expectAndReturn("getParameterNames",
	new Object[] {"one", "two"});

it's still a work in progress, which is why we haven't packaged it up 
yet. The basics are quite simple, it tries to match a method call and 
return a value if appropriate. If an expectation is set it will check 
that, otherwise it'll just match. The rest is a rather messy 
implementation that still needs cleanup.
