Mock objects give you: +* A methodology for developing and using mock objects. + +* A core mock objects framework. This is a library of code that supports + the implementation of mock objects. It is based around a set of + expectation classes for values and collections. There are also various + other classes to make mock objects easier to write or to use. + +* A default set of mock implementations for the standard Java platform + APIs. We have made a start on packages such as servlets, sql, and io. + +* Mock implementations for more specialised libraries, particularly + third party products. So far, we have started on ATG Dynamo and IBM's + VisualAge for Java tools API. + +* A community for exchanging ideas on anything related to unit testing, + with a bias towards Mock Objects. + +Our larger aim is to make www.mockobjects.com the point of reference for +ideas and tools for unit testing particularly based on Mock Objects. Our +first implementation is in Java, largely because that's what we've been +working in, but also because it has a stable set of APIs that are +suitable for writing Mock Objects. We have applied these techniques to +other environments and intend to publish the results here. </longdescription> </pkgmetadata> |
