Cannot mock Param because it is declared final, and IParam is empty

[mwjames]

For a test I tried to:

$param = $this->getMockBuilder( '\ParamProcessor\Param' )
	->disableOriginalConstructor()
	->getMock();

but it returns with "Class "ParamProcessor\Param" is declared "final" and cannot be mocked." then I tried

$param = $this->getMockBuilder( '\ParamProcessor\IParam' )
	->disableOriginalConstructor()
	->getMock();

which returns "Trying to configure method "getName" which cannot be configured because it does not exist, has not been specified, is final, or is static".

In order to get going I ended up with:

$param = $this->getMockBuilder( '\stdClass' )
	->disableOriginalConstructor()
	->setMethods( [ 'getName', 'getValue' ] )
	->getMock();

$param->expects( $this->any() )
	->method( 'getName' )
	->will( $this->returnValue( 'outlineproperties' ) );

$param->expects( $this->any() )
	->method( 'getValue' )
	->will( $this->returnValue( [] ) );

In order to get going I ended up with:

Both Param and IParam are marked as package private and IParam is deprecated.

SMW looks like it can be migrated away from these (and I suspect SMW is the last user). Will give that a try.

Semi-related: SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki#4171

SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki#4172

After that you should be able to just use ProcessedParam (which is a sane value object) in your test without needing any mocking.

"sane"... it has setters though :D Please slap 2013 Jeroen if you see him.
