Niclas Larsson b7ced159db Avoid is_constructible recursion in OnceAction
Both OnceAction compatibility traits, IsDirectlyCompatible and
IsCompatibleAfterIgnoringArguments, check std::is_constructible before
is_callable_r.

On libc++ that order breaks. Evaluating
is_constructible<std::tuple<OnceAction&&>, ...> drives libc++'s tuple
constructor SFINAE, which calls back into OnceAction's converting
constructor and re-enters the conjunction while it is still incomplete.
GCC <= 8 (e.g. QNX 7.1's gcc 8.3) rejects this with:

    incomplete type ... used in nested name specifier

so EXPECT_CALL(m, f()).WillOnce(Return(...)) fails to compile. GCC >= 9
and every Clang accept the original order; libstdc++ is unaffected.

Swapping the two checks fixes it: is_callable_r is cheap and
non-recursive, so the conjunction short-circuits to false for the
non-callable tuple before is_constructible is instantiated.

Fixes #3947.

Googletest Mocking (gMock) Framework

Overview

Google's framework for writing and using C++ mock classes. It can help you derive better designs of your system and write better tests.

It is inspired by:

It is designed with C++'s specifics in mind.

gMock:

  • Provides a declarative syntax for defining mocks.
  • Can define partial (hybrid) mocks, which are a cross of real and mock objects.
  • Handles functions of arbitrary types and overloaded functions.
  • Comes with a rich set of matchers for validating function arguments.
  • Uses an intuitive syntax for controlling the behavior of a mock.
  • Does automatic verification of expectations (no record-and-replay needed).
  • Allows arbitrary (partial) ordering constraints on function calls to be expressed.
  • Lets a user extend it by defining new matchers and actions.
  • Does not use exceptions.
  • Is easy to learn and use.

GoogleMock is a part of GoogleTest C++ testing framework and a subject to the same requirements.
