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

[<Vin...@ge...>]

Hi all,

I've been playing with the new dynamocks recently and I really like it. Nice
job ;-)

What's the status on this concern raised by Vincent some time ago? I came
accross the same situation recently and I
wuold have loved an expectNotCalled method. It makes the test code easier to
understand. What is the recommandation here?

Thanks,
Vincent
