Is it possible to use real data here instead of Mockito? It is possible that imageObjectDetect can be changed so as to be impossible to return "result" without violating any types. If so, this test would not be testing a true code path. > > Generally, there's an argument on real objects vs Mocks that I'll quote: https://testing.googleblog.com/2013/05/testing-on-toilet-dont-overuse-mocks.html > > Mocks were made for situations where using real objects would be difficult, undesirable, or impossible, e.g. network calls. I do realize there is an argument that if you use a real object, you're not isolating the component your testing, but on the flip side, using a mock is not as likely to catch real errors; and if the underlying code is changed, the test above should still run unchanged. As for performance, I wouldn't imagine a big impact. > > Let me know what you think. Yes you have a valid point that it should be mocking out the next line. The unit tests for ```val ret = objDetector.imageObjectDetect(inputImage, Some(topK)) ``` (Scala code) already exist and can be found here : https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/blob/master/scala-package/infer/src/test/scala/org/apache/mxnet/infer/ObjectDetectorSuite.scala As for using Mockito v/s real data, I would prefer using a proper integration test Suite, with real world data, and leave the unit tests to check the code paths and branches with mocked data. :) The integ test for SSD in Java can be found here : https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/blob/master/scala-package/mxnet-demo/java-demo/src/main/java/mxnet/ObjectDetection.java ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
