similar to: mocking or stubbing a private method

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has already developed a mocking approach to stub out the Paypal interface so that one can test on an internal PC which doesn''t provide a means for PayPal to callback to your webserver? (i.e. once the app is deployed to the hosting provider it would then work as PayPal could then hit the application with the specified URL). Anyone already solved this? Would

All, Inspired by a conversation on the mocha list, I added the ability to mix stubs w/ mocks on the same methods. Here''s what it allows: context "a mock" do specify "can stub! and mock the same message" do mock = mock("stubbing mock") mock.stub!(:msg).and_return(:stub_value) mock.should_receive(:msg).with(:arg).and_return(:mock_value)

Hello, I have a question regarding the use of Mocha with rSpec to spec one of my methods. My spec contains the following vehical1 = mock() vehical2 = mock() vehical1.stubs(:mph).returns(150) vehical2.stubs(:mph).returns(250) comparer.add_vehical([@vehical1, @vehical2]) comparer.sort_by(:mph) The comparer is an object that has a basic "stack like" functionality, add_vehical is the

In my Unit tests, I run into the all-too-common problem of Time.expects(:now) being called by Benchmark before the method is unmocked. Instead of messing around with the teardown order, I decided to modify the Expectation with a new method, .stops_mocking. Here are the changes I use, including a few monkey patches to push relevant objects down to where I want them, all wrapped up in a big ugly

Hello all, I have a question concerning mocha''s handling of protected and private methods. When expecting such a method, the method is public in the test. I expected the method to keep its original visibilty. Is this intended behaviour, or a bug? Thanks for your help, Tammo Freese

Anyone know how to stub Kernel#open? I''m trying to mock/stub an open-uri call, but it doesn''t seem to like it. Here''s the test code, and the failures: body = File.open(File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../fixtures/google_search_california.html'').read

How can I safely mock a singleton without the mocked method living on outside the scope of the test method? I''ve run into this problem with mocking methods on globals (gasp!) in the past by doing something like def mock_my_global original = $my_global $my_global.expects(:foo).returns(''bar'') yield $my_global = original end Is there something similar I

Hello all, I''m having difficulty setting up mocks such that I can verify that Rails was going to render the right template file (for example new.rhtml) and stop Rails from performing the actual rendering. After peeking at Rails'' internals, I tried two techniques as illustrated here: http://pastie.caboo.se/18197 Neither worked. I think the first one failed because Rails

Hi guys, I''ve just been reading Martin Fowler''s article re mock versus stubbing<http://martinfowler.com/articles/mocksArentStubs.html>where he compares traditional TDD testing techniques with mock based testing. I''d be interested in comments from a ruby on rails perspective in terms of this and Mocha? For example: a) Do you see Mocha as a robust way to test Ruby

Hi Guys! I just joined this list after James helped me out in ruby-talk to mock a http get request for a project I have running :) Now comes the second question... I was fiddling around, making the mocking with the get request work (which turned out to me pretty easy), but then I ran into another problem. I was faced with mocking the post request, so I thought I could do it the same way

Hi guys, Would you mind if I ask how Flex Mock and Mocha sit together? They compete directly? I read that Flex Mock was built into Rails 1.2. Is there a reason to use Mocha instead of Flex Mock? Tks Greg

Hi, (Mocha and Stubba are great, btw.) Is there any way to alias the call to .type in Mocha? The issue is that AR effectively aliases the normal type method for the Column class (for whatever Adapter.) My code is reflecting on the adapter methods to iterate over the columns in a particular model. This makes it hard to write test code that stubs out columns and mocks my models. E.g. cols =

Hi, I''m new to mocha and stubba but eager to learn. I have a rails functional test in which I would like to stub an instance method of particular class to always return true. I tried the following: def test_post_checkout Order.any_instance.stubs(:successful?).returns(true) post :checkout assert_response :redirect assert_equal "Checkout was successful.",

Mocha''s mock/stub framework has the ability to stub all methods on a mock given. Does RSpec''s mocking framework have this ability? And if not, is there some reason it shouldn''t be implemeneted? Regards, Scott

Hi guys. Quite happy with mocha for testing. It''s been a bit of an eye opener for me, and I expect to begin using it heavily. One other thing I''d like to do is stub out particular class methods in development. Is there a way I can do this with mocha? Jason

Hello, I recently made a feature request with a patch for terser mocks. http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=10412&group_id=1917&atid=7480 Here are some examples with their current equivalents: the_mock.expects.foo(1,2) {|a, b| :bar} the_mock.expects.foo(1,2).returns(:bar) the_mock.expects(:foo).with(1,2) {|a, b| :bar} the_mock.expects(:foo).with(1,2).returns(:bar)

Hello, First, thanks for releasing Mocha. As someone who''s been practicing TDD much longer than I''ve been using Rails, one of my biggest complaints has always been the fact that the "Unit" tests are more like intefration tests because of how tightly coupled the domain model is when using ActiveRecord. Stubba looks like it could really help aleviate this problem. The
