      • any

        public static Matcher<java.lang.Object> any()
        Returns a matcher which matches any input.

      • not

        public static <T> Matcher<T> not​(Matcher<? super T> p)
        Inverts the given matcher.

      • annotatedWith

        public static Matcher<java.lang.reflect.AnnotatedElement> annotatedWith​(java.lang.Class<? extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> annotationType)
        Returns a matcher which matches elements (methods, classes, etc.) with a given annotation.

      • annotatedWith

        public static Matcher<java.lang.reflect.AnnotatedElement> annotatedWith​(java.lang.annotation.Annotation annotation)
        Returns a matcher which matches elements (methods, classes, etc.) with a given annotation.

      • subclassesOf

        public static Matcher<java.lang.Class> subclassesOf​(java.lang.Class<?> superclass)
        Returns a matcher which matches subclasses of the given type (as well as the given type).

      • only

        public static Matcher<java.lang.Object> only​(java.lang.Object value)
        Returns a matcher which matches objects equal to the given object.

      • identicalTo

        public static Matcher<java.lang.Object> identicalTo​(java.lang.Object value)
        Returns a matcher which matches only the given object.

      • inPackage

        public static Matcher<java.lang.Class> inPackage​(java.lang.Package targetPackage)
        Returns a matcher which matches classes in the given package. Packages are specific to their classloader, so classes with the same package name may not have the same package at runtime.

      • inSubpackage

        public static Matcher<java.lang.Class> inSubpackage​(java.lang.String targetPackageName)
        Returns a matcher which matches classes in the given package and its subpackages. Unlike inPackage(), this matches classes from any classloader.

      • returns

        public static Matcher<java.lang.reflect.Method> returns​(Matcher<? super java.lang.Class<?>> returnType)
        Returns a matcher which matches methods with matching return types.
