This catches when a client creates an action and discards it, thinking that the action has actually been applied to something.
This will help people who make the mistake of defining, for example, both `void Use(Foo*, Bar)` and `ACTION_P(Use, bar) { Use(arg, bar); }` for later application to a Foo. With such an overload, a client may then write `Use(bar);`, selecting the Action<> overload and being confused why nothing happens.
This also catches when a client defines their own action in terms of an ACTION_P()-generated one, invokes the Action<>'s builder, and then fails to invoke the resulting action, thinking it's operating on the outer action's parameters.

Googletest Mocking (gMock) Framework
Overview
Google's framework for writing and using C++ mock classes. It can help you derive better designs of your system and write better tests.
It is inspired by:
It is designed with C++'s specifics in mind.
gMock:
- Provides a declarative syntax for defining mocks.
- Can define partial (hybrid) mocks, which are a cross of real and mock objects.
- Handles functions of arbitrary types and overloaded functions.
- Comes with a rich set of matchers for validating function arguments.
- Uses an intuitive syntax for controlling the behavior of a mock.
- Does automatic verification of expectations (no record-and-replay needed).
- Allows arbitrary (partial) ordering constraints on function calls to be expressed.
- Lets a user extend it by defining new matchers and actions.
- Does not use exceptions.
- Is easy to learn and use.

GoogleMock is a part of GoogleTest C++ testing framework and a subject to the same requirements.
