Hi
all,
I'm new to unit
testing and Cactus.
Have some questions
regarding Mock object. I've read this article: http://jakarta.apache.org/cactus/mock_vs_cactus.html .
It mentioned that Cactus and Mock Object can actually be
complementary:
"During
the development phase, MO could be used to unit test the code logic only. They
run fast and you could use them easily inside your IDE. Then every few hours,
you'll run the Cactus tests which test interactions between objects and
container interactions. Then you'll run the functional/acceptance tests when you
deploy to the real platform. Note that this is if you want to do the full cycle.
A short cycle could simply be Cactus tests and functional /acceptance
tests."
How could the
above-mentioned be done? Does it mean that i'll first write the test code in
Mock Object way and then refactor the code to run Cactus test? I've silmilar
problem with JDBC test.
