Constructing mocks in unit tests
- by Flynn1179
Is there any way to have a mock constructed instead of a real instance when testing code that calls a constructor?
For example:
public class ClassToTest
{
public void MethodToTest()
{
MyObject foo = new MyObject();
Console.WriteLine(foo.ToString());
}
}
In this example, I need to create a unit test that confirms that calling MethodToTest on an instance of ClassToTest will indeed output whatever the result of the ToString() method of a newly created instance of MyObject.
I can't see a way of realistically testing the 'ClassToTest' class in isolation; testing this method would actually test the 'myObject.ToString()' method as well as the MethodToTest method.
