Mocha is a Ruby library for mocking and stubbing using a syntax
|
||
|
|
like that of JMock, and SchMock. Most commonly Mocha is used in
|
||
|
|
conjunction with Test::Unit, but it can be used in other contexts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
One of its main advantages is that it allows you to mock and stub
|
||
|
|
methods on real (non-mock) classes and instances. You can for
|
||
|
|
example stub ActiveRecord instance methods like create, save,
|
||
|
|
destroy and even class methods like find to avoid hitting the
|
||
|
|
database in unit tests.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Mocha provides a unified, simple and readable syntax for both
|
||
|
|
traditional mocking and for mocking with real objects.
