Excuse if this is a silly question, I am new to mocking. I am able to use mocha to do things like: person.expects(:first_name).returns('David') How can I mock a nested object? Say I have a Product that belongs to a Person and I want to get the first name of that person. In my app I might do it like this: product.person.first_name ...
Is it correct that Rhino Mocks stubs and mocks are only good for interfaces, not concrete classes? I spent quite a time trying to make this piece of code working. What I did not expected is that stabbed pubSubClient will always call Send method from the class. That method has some dependencies and throws exception. [Test] public void Te...
I've just started some MonoTouch development and I've tried, and failed, to get Moq working for my unit tests. The binary version fails because it's looking for System v2.0, which I assume is down to its Castle requirements, and building it from source crashes the compiler! My question is has anyone gotten Moq to work on Mono (the touch...
Hi! I'll looking about mocking of constructor calls in tested method. Something like http://code.google.com/p/powermock/wiki/MockConstructor The problem is that I'm working under JDK 1.4 (this is requirement of customer). I tried to use Retrotranslator for PowerMock, but it seems that I can do nothing about required use of annotations @...
I've been going through the process of cleaning up our controller code to make each action as testable. Generally speaking, this hasn't been too difficult--where we have opportunity to use a fixed object, like say FormsAuthentication, we generally introduce some form of wrapper as appropriate and be on our merry way. For reasons not pa...
Im learning Mockito and in chapter 16 they say you should not use partial mocking in new system. I disagree, for example in one of my actions i use partial mocking for static framework methods, sql calls, etc. I extracted the stuff into methods and then mock it in tests. Most of those methods are specific to this action and wont be call...
Is there any way to set a class level variable within a mock object? I have the mock object set similar to this: $stub = $this->getMock('SokmeClass', array('method')); $stub->expects($this->once()) ->method('method') ->with($this->equalTo($arg1)); Win the real class there is a variable that needs to be set for it to...
I've recently returned to C/C++ after years of C#. During those years I've found the value of Mocking and Unit testing. Finding resources for Mocks and Units tests in C# is trivial. WRT Mocking, not so much with C++. I would like some guidance on what others do to mock and test Asynch io_service handlers with boost. For instance, in ...
Hello, We are looking to make a final decision on our Mocking framework. After trying several, I have fallen in love with Moq. I also love TypeMock - but because we are in the early stages of implementing TDD across the team, we do not want to make such a large investment quite yet. We are using VS 2008 now and are going to move to 2010...
I’m relatively new to testing and MVC and came across a sticking point today. I’m attempting to test an action method that has a dependency on HttpContext.Current.Cache and wanted to know the best practice for achieving the “low coupling” to allow for easy testing. Here's what I've got so far... public class CacheHandler : ICacheHan...
I am looking for python stubbing library. Something that could be used to create fake classes/methods in my unit tests.. Is there a simple way to achieve it in python.. Thanks PS: I am not looking for mocking library where you would record and replay expectation. Difference between mock and stubs ...
Are there any circumstances where it is favourable to manually create a stub type, as opposed to using a mocking framework (such as Rhino Mocks) at the point of test. We take both these approaches in our projects. My gut feel when I look at the long list of stub versions of objects is that it will add maintenance overhead, and moves the...
Hi all, I did search the forum and did not find a similar question. I'm looking to make a final decision on our mocking framework of choice moving forward as a best practice - I've decided on Moq... untill I just recently discovered MS has finally created a mocking framework called Moles which seems to work similar to TypeMock via the p...
I have occasionally heard or read about people asserting their interfaces in a unit test. I don't mean mocking an interface for use in another type's test, but specifically creating a test to accompany the interface. Consider this ultra-lame and off-the-cuff example: public interface IDoSomething { string DoSomething(); } and the...
I have a constructor which has a non-interface dependency: public MainWindowViewModel(IWorkItemProvider workItemProvider, WeekNavigatorViewModel weekNavigator) I am using the Moq.Contrib automockcontainer. If I try to automock the MainWindowViewModel class, I get an error due to the WeekNavigatorViewModel dependency. Are there any a...
Hello, How can I do this in Moq? Foo bar = new Foo(); Fake(bar.PrivateGetter).Return('whatever value') It seems I can only find how to mock an object that was created via the framework. I want to mock just a single method/property on a concrete object I've created... In TypeMock, I would just do Isolate.WhenCalled(bar.PrivateGetter...
Hi, See the following Mock Test by using Spring/Spring-MVC public class OrderTest { // SimpleFormController private OrderController controller; private OrderService service; private MockHttpServletRequest request; @BeforeMethod public void setUp() { request = new MockHttpServletRequest(); re...
I never liked writing mocks and a while ago someone here recommended to use FakeWeb. I immediately fell completely in love with FakeWeb. However, I have to wonder if there is a downside to using FakeWeb. It seems like mocks are still much more common, so I wonder what I am missing that's wrong with using FakeWeb instead. Is there a certa...
I'm having a lot of trouble trying to define a mock for a rails models on cucumber. It seems like the method is creating a bunch of message expectations and i keep getting errors like these: Given I have only a product named "Sushi de Pato" # features/step_definitions/product_ steps.rb:19 unexpected invocation: #<Mock:ProductCate...
I'm trying this for almost two hours now, without any luck. I have a module that looks like this: try: from zope.component import queryUtility # and things like this except ImportError: # do some fallback operations <-- how to test this? Later in the code: try: queryUtility(foo) except NameError: # do some fallback ...
