Mocking is a common tool, especially for testing. By strategically
|
|
replacing a subroutine, one can isolate segments (units) of code to
|
|
test individually. When this is done it is important to know that the
|
|
mocked sub was actually called and with what arguments it was called.
|
|
|
|
Mock::MonkeyPatch injects a subroutine in the place of an existing one.
|
|
It returns an object by which you can revisit the manner in which the
|
|
mocked subroutine was called. Further when the object goes out of scope
|
|
(or when the "restore" method is called) the original subroutine is
|
|
replaced.
