Do we really need isolation frameworks to create stubs?
- by Sandbox
I have read this: http://martinfowler.com/articles/mocksArentStubs.html
My concepts about a stub and a mock are clear. I understand the need of isolation frameworks like moq, rhinomocks and like to create a mock object. As mocks, participate in actual verfication of expectations. But why do we need these frameworks to create stubs. I would rather prefer rolling out a hand created stub and use it in various fixtures.
