Description
This issue is based on this discussion.
I want to create a test that checks that an event was NOT published. The usecase I try to replicate is that the publisher can be configured to temporarily ignore specific event types (e.g. because the target system is not available). So I am looking for something like this:
scenario.stimulate(() -> collector.poll())
.andWaitAtMost(Duration.ofSeconds(5))
.andWaitForEventOfType(NewJobEvent.class)
.not().toArrive();
//or
scenario.stimulate(() -> collector.poll())
.andWaitAtMost(Duration.ofSeconds(5))
.andWaitForEventOfType(NewJobEvent.class)
.notToArrive();

Research direction
Start with the linked discussion, then inspect the scenario API around stimulate, andWaitAtMost, andWaitForEventOfType, and the collector.poll() example. Trace existing event-arrival tests and determine how a NewJobEvent absence should be asserted; done means a test covers the negative case for an ignored event type and the API clearly reports success or failure.
