RE: [MO-java-dev] [New DynaMock] expectNotCalled deprecated, why?

[Vincent M. <vm...@pi...>]

Actually, I've understood the comment now but I still think this method
should not be deprecated as it explains what the test is trying to do.
With no method, you'll need to either document the test or hope that the
reader will understand it...

What do you think?

Thanks
