+----
+	server = MockRestServiceServer.bindTo(restTemplate).ignoreExpectOrder().build();

+
+Even with unordered requests by default each request is allowed to execute once only.
+The `expect` method provides an overloaded variant that accepts an `ExpectedCount`
+argument that specifies a count range, e.g. `once`, `manyTimes`, `max`, `min`,
+`between`, and so on. Here is an example:
+
+[source,java,indent=0]

+----
+	RestTemplate restTemplate = new RestTemplate();
+
+	MockRestServiceServer mockServer = MockRestServiceServer.bindTo(restTemplate).build();

+	mockServer.expect(times(3), requestTo("/bar")).andRespond(withSuccess());
+
+	// ...
+
+	mockServer.verify();
+----
+
+Note that when `ignoreExpectOrder` is not set (the default), and therefore requests
+are expected in order of declaration, then that order only applies to the first of
+any expected request. For example if "/foo" is expected 2 times followed by "/bar"
+3 times, then there should be a request to "/foo" before there is a request to "/bar"
+but aside from that subsequent "/foo" and "/bar" requests can come at any time.
+
+As an alternative to all of the above the client-side test support also provides a
+`ClientHttpRequestFactory` implementation that can be configured into a `RestTemplate`
+to bind it to a `MockMvc` instance. That allows processing requests using actual
+server-side logic but without running a server. Here is an example:
