public enum MockNature
extends java.lang.Enum<MockNature>
```
A named set of defaults for a mock's configuration options. A mock nature is chosen at mock creation time, typically by selecting the appropriate MockingApi factory method.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants
Enum Constant	Description
`MOCK`	A mock object whose method calls are verified, which instantiates class-based mock objects with Objenesis, and whose strategy for responding to unexpected method calls is `ZeroOrNullResponse`.
`SPY`	A mock object whose method calls are verified, which instantiates class-based mock objects by calling a real constructor, and whose strategy for responding to unexpected method calls is `CallRealMethodResponse`.
`STUB`	A mock object whose method calls are not verified, which instantiates class-based mock objects with Objenesis, and whose strategy for responding to unexpected method calls is `EmptyOrDummyResponse`.

Method Summary

All Methods Static Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`IDefaultResponse`	`getDefaultResponse()`	Returns the strategy for responding to unexpected method calls.
`boolean`	`isUseObjenesis()`	Tells whether class-based mock objects should be instantiated with the Objenesis library (if available), or by calling a real constructor.
`boolean`	`isVerified()`	Tells whether method calls should be verified.
`static MockNature`	`valueOf(java.lang.String name)`	Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
`static MockNature[]`	`values()`	Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

  - STUB
```
public static final MockNature STUB

- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static MockNature[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
```
for (MockNature c : MockNature.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static MockNature valueOf(java.lang.String name)
```
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the enum constant with the specified name
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null
  - isVerified
```
public boolean isVerified()
```
    Tells whether method calls should be verified.
    
    Returns:
    
    whether method calls should be verified
  - isUseObjenesis
```
public boolean isUseObjenesis()
```
    Tells whether class-based mock objects should be instantiated with the Objenesis library (if available), or by calling a real constructor.
    
    Returns:
    
    whether class-based mock objects should be instantiated with the Objenesis library (if available), or by calling a real constructor
  - getDefaultResponse
```
public IDefaultResponse getDefaultResponse()
```
    Returns the strategy for responding to unexpected method calls.
    
    Returns:
    
    the strategy for responding to unexpected method calls
