[MO-java-users] FW: [junit] Polygenix AgileTest - Mock Object Testing Suite

[Vincent M. <vm...@pi...>]

FYI. That looks very promising (downloading it now). A pity it is not
open source :-). When are we going to start implementing something
similar? ;-) (I know, the OS rule is: if you want it, just do it...).

> We've just announced the release of an Early Access Preview of

> other mock object implementations in that it operates at the bytecode
> level. Other implementations are generally based on either
> straightforward source-code generation, or the insertion of a dynamic
> proxy. The former approach increases the number of artefacts in your
> development project (which must also be kept in synchronisation with
> development) whilst the latter is limited to the mocking of
> interfaces. The upshot is that, using AgileTest, it is possible to
> create mocks (or Imposters) of classes as well as interfaces, without
> requiring source code for the class under test and without generating
> a pile of additional source files.
> 
> AgileTest also includes another neat feature - Interlopers - which
> allows for dynamic object substitution at any point in the class
> under test, allowing for comprehensive mock-based testing of non
> parameterized object collaborations. This means that common
> programming idioms like static factory calls, or JNDI InitialContext
> calls in EJBs, can now be successfully mocked.
