How to use it

The trait ProphecyTrait provides a method prophesize($classOrInterface = null) to use Prophecy. For the usage of the Prophecy doubles, please refer to the Prophecy documentation.

Below is a usage example:

<?php

namespace App;

use PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase;
use Prophecy\PhpUnit\ProphecyTrait;
use App\Security\Hasher;
use App\Entity\User;

class UserTest extends TestCase
{
    use ProphecyTrait;

    public function testPasswordHashing()
    {
        $hasher = $this->prophesize(Hasher::class);
        $user   = new User($hasher->reveal());

        $hasher->generateHash($user, 'qwerty')->willReturn('hashed_pass');

        $user->setPassword('qwerty');

        $this->assertEquals('hashed_pass', $user->getPassword());
    }
}
