The recent delivery ADF Faces codebase with the missing jsf-mock dependency got me thinking...
- "Do we really need hand-written (or possibly generated) mock implementation classes as a dependency?" - "What strategy should we follow for our own classes that require mock implementations?" For future test development, we might benefit from using jMock which doesn't require a separate set of mock class implementations to mock the interfaces / abstract classes. http://jmock.codehaus.org/getting-started.html Interestingly, jMock can leverage CGLib to manage dynamic proxy creation of abstract classes, and produces extremely readable unit tests that capture the semantics of the code being tested. Does anyone have jMock or mock object experiences to share? tc, -john. -- http://apress.com/book/bookDisplay.html?bID=10044 Author: Pro JSF and Ajax: Building Rich Internet Components, Apress
