The Mock component in MUnit allows you to define mocked behavior for a message processor. You can modify how a specific message processor responds when called with particular attributes. The example shows using Mock to replace the "Set Payload" processor with one that returns "Good Morning!" instead of "Hi", which is then asserted on in a test.

2. Abstract
• The Mock feature provided by MUnit allows
you to define mocked behavior for a message
processor. In this case, MUnit replaces the
normal behavior of the message processor
with the behavior you define. Thus you can
modify how a specific message processor
responds when it is called with a particular set
of attributes.
