FakeItEasy - It's faking amazing (original) (raw)

// Creating a fake object is just dead easy!
// No mocks, no stubs, everything's a fake!
var lollipop = A.Fake<ICandy>();
var shop = A.Fake<ICandyShop>();
// Easily set up a call to return a value
A.CallTo(() => shop.GetTopSellingCandy()).Returns(lollipop);
// Use your fake as you would an instance of the faked type.
var developer = new SweetTooth();
developer.BuyTastiestCandy(shop);
// Asserting uses the same syntax as configuring calls.
// There's no need to learn another syntax.
A.CallTo(() => shop.BuyCandy(lollipop)).MustHaveHappened();

A .Net dynamic fake framework for creating all types of fake objects, mocks, stubs etc.

• Easier semantics: all fake objects are just that — fakes. Usage determines whether they're mocks or stubs.
• Context-aware fluent interface guides the developer
• Easy to use and compatible with both C# and VB.Net.

Additional Features

• every faked instance looks and feels like an instance of the faked type

• helpful exception messages identify where a test went wrong

• raising events from faked objects

• explicit assertions, stated at the end of the test

• type-safe faking of classes that require constructor arguments

• automatic generation of dummy constructor arguments, if desired

• extensible facilities for fake and dummy creation and argument formatting
