How to unit test MessageDecoder and MessageEncoder

Hi!

I have written my own MessageDecoder and MessageEncoder.

Is it possible to unit test these two classes before the server and
client areready?
If yes, please give me some hints of how to unit test these codec classes.

Thank you!

Well, it really doesn't have any differences from unit-testing usual java
objects.  You could create some mock objects and use them as parameters for
each call (e.g. decode()), and check the result (the content of
ProtocolDecoderOutput or return value).

HTH,
