Pragmatic Unit Testing with Easy Mock in the Real World Mock objects are more than stubs that stand in for code in unit testing. With mock objects you can do much more than just the standard unit test paradigm of state verification. Martin Fowler uses the term behavior verification to describe a check to see if correct calls were made with the correct parameters in the correct sequence. Certainly, checking the temporal flow as well as before and after state takes test-driven-development to a whole new level. EasyMock, as Howard Lewis Ship puts it, is early small great weird. I will cover some of the early small great weird ness about EasyMock and discuss how it is used in a real world continuous build scenario to do behavior verification. Additionally I will show how mock objects can be used more effectively mere stubs in a standard state verification scenario.
