This module generates mock clients for tests based on feign interfaces
Just need to add this module to dependency list and Java Annotation Processing Tool will automatically pick up the jar and generate test clients.
There are 2 main alternatives to include this to a project:
- Just add to classpath and java compiler should automaticaly detect and run code generation. On maven this is done like this:
<dependency>
<groupId>io.github.openfeign.experimental</groupId>
<artifactId>feign-apt-test-generator</artifactId>
<version>${feign.version}</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
- Use a purpose build tool that allow to pick output location and don't mix dependencies onto classpath
