Interface TimeProvider

All Superinterfaces:
Supplier<Instant>
All Known Implementing Classes:
TimeProvider.DefaultTimeProvider
Functional Interface:
This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
@FunctionalInterface public interface TimeProvider extends Supplier<Instant>
A provider of current time. It should be used by code requiring a timestamp, so it can be mocked during tests. MockTimeProvider in module "Test Utilities" is a suitable mock for performing tests.
