I am trying to write a unit test for a method, which has a call to method from dll. Is there anyway i can mock the dll methods so that i can unit test?

public string GetName(dllobject, int id)
{
     var eligibileEmp = dllobject.GetEligibleEmp(id); <---------trying to mock 
                                                                 this method

     if(eligibleEmp.Equals(empValue)
     {
      ..........
     }
}

Im learning Mockito and in chapter 16 they say you should not use partial mocking in new system. I disagree, for example in one of my actions i use partial mocking for static framework methods, sql calls, etc. I extracted the stuff into methods and then mock it in tests. Most of those methods are… >>> More
