Mocking Protected Methods
=========================
By default, Mockery does not allow mocking protected methods. We do not recommend
mocking protected methods, but there are cases when there is no other solution.
For those cases we have the ``shouldAllowMockingProtectedMethods()`` method. It
instructs Mockery to specifically allow mocking of protected methods, for that
one class only:
.. code-block:: php
class MyClass
{
protected function foo()
{
}
}
$mock = \Mockery::mock('MyClass')
->shouldAllowMockingProtectedMethods();
$mock->shouldReceive('foo');
