Hi, I would like to work on a Mock add-on module in Qt Playground that might be beneficial later for certain projects. See the relevant wikipage for a short introduction about the goals of mock objects in testing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mock_object
Here you can find similar projects and sites, but not Qt style API for sure in the first place: http://mockpp.sourceforge.net/ http://www.mockobjects.com/ http://www.jmock.org/ http://www.easymock.org/ http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/mock/ There were previous attempts to address this niche, but none of those succeeded so far for certain reasons. The only publicly visible project I have found about the topic in question can be found here: https://qt.gitorious.org/~niandong/qt/niandongs-qttools/commits/qtmock The aforementioned project is apparently abandoned in there. I have tried to contact Niandong (the maintainer behind that), but he has unfortunately replied that he does not work on such a project anymore. It would be nice to help out the Qt Project with such an add-on module in the future. I am unsure about the module name in playground, but perhaps (qt)mock-ng, (qt)mock-next or something else ? What do you think ? Best Regards, Laszlo Papp _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
