README
= Mocha Mocha is a library for mocking and stubbing using a syntax like that of JMock[http://www.jmock.org], and SchMock[http://rubyforge.org/projects/schmock]. Most commonly Mocha is used in conjunction with Test::Unit[http://www.ruby-doc.org/core/classes/Test/Unit.html], but it can be used in other contexts. One of its main advantages is that it allows you to mock and stub methods on _real_ (non-mock) classes and instances. You can for example stub ActiveRecord[http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActiveRecord/Base.html] instance methods like +create+, +save+, +destroy+ and even class methods like +find+ to avoid hitting the database in unit tests. Mocha provides a unified, simple and readable syntax for both traditional mocking and for mocking with _real_ objects. Mocha has been harvested from projects at Reevoo[http://www.reevoo.com] by me (James[http://blog.floehopper.org]) and my colleagues Ben[http://www.reevoo.com/blogs/bengriffiths], Chris[http://blog.seagul.co.uk] and Paul[http://po-ru.com]. Mocha is in use on real-world Rails[http://www.rubyonrails.org] projects. == Download and Installation Install the gem with the following command... $ gem install mocha Or install the Rails[http://www.rubyonrails.org] plugin... $ script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/mocha/trunk Or download Mocha from here - http://rubyforge.org/projects/mocha == Examples * Quick Start - {Usage Examples}[link:examples/misc.html] * Traditional mocking - {Star Trek Example}[link:examples/mocha.html] * Setting expectations on real classes - {Order Example}[link:examples/stubba.html] * More examples on {Floehopper's Blog}[http://blog.floehopper.org] * {Mailing List Archives}[http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/mocha-developer/] == License Copyright Revieworld Ltd. 2006 You may use, copy and redistribute this library under the same terms as {Ruby itself}[http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/LICENSE.txt] or under the {MIT license}[http://mocha.rubyforge.org/files/MIT-LICENSE.html].
