Simple mock object not passing 'instanceof' test

[markushausammann]

When I use a phpUnit mock:

$mock = $this->getMock('Lib_Some_Class_Name');

the following:

($mock instanceof Lib_Some_Class_Name)

will be true. If I do the same with a Mockery mock

 $mock = m::mock('Lib_Some_Class_Name');

it doesn't. What am I doing/understanding wrong?

While debugging I see that the phpUnit mock is an Object of: Mock_Lib_Some_Class_Name_xyzsomething while the Mockery mock is Object of: Mockery\Mock. So I assume that's what makes the difference for the test. Now I assume I would need to create an Alias Mock... but what if the class I want to mock is not in a namespace?

I'll just keep on trying.

Allright, the solution: just use:

m::mock('alias:Lib_Some_Class_Name');

Brilliant :)
