Scalamock expect eventually

Question

I'm using scalamock to write a test. The problem is that action is asynchronous. I have the following pseudo code

val resultCollectorMock = mock[ResultCollector]
(resultCollectorMock.collectResult _).expect(someResult)

val serviceUnderTest = new ServiceUnderTest(resultColletorMock)
serviceUnderTest.runAsyncJob(someParams)

This fails because the result is computed asynchronously, at time when the test ends, it's still not ready, so collectResult wasn't called, yet.

What I want to have is expectEventually(value)(patienceConfig) that is able to wait for some time for the method to be called.

I tried to use a sutb and verify instead, I wrapped it in eventually from scalatest but to no avail. For whatever reason verify seems to break the test at first evaluation.

you should use AsyncMockFactory with an appropriate test suite and Futures as described in the docs at https://scalamock.org/user-guide/integration/
