Description

The MockConsumer throws OffsetOutOfRangeException if a record is behind the beginning offset. This is unlike the real consumer, which will use auto.offset.reset to decide whether to seek to the beginning, end or throw an exception.

It is convenient if the poll method does the offset reset properly, since it allows for testing cases like a consumer requesting offsets from a truncated log.
