Mock unit test case based on ``mocker``

Project description

Introduction
============

This package contains a unittest test class based on the one from the
``Mocker`` mock library (http://labix.org/mocker).

This class provides support for registering Zope 3 components (utilities,
adapters, subscription adapters and event handlers) from mocks and tearing
down the global component registry during test tear-down.

There are also a few convenience methods and parameter checkers that are
useful to Zope and Plone testing.

Please see the Mocker documentation for more detail:

http://labix.org/mocker

See testcase.py for more detail on the mock helper methods.

A test case that mocks a utility may look like this::

from plone.mocktestcase import MockTestCase

from my.package.interfaces import IMyInterface
from my.package.foo import testable_method

class MyTestCase(MockTestCase):

def test_something(self):

utility_mock = self.mocker.mock()
self.expect(utility_mock.do_something()).result("foo")
self.mock_utility(utility_mock, IMyInterface)

# Put mocker into replay mode
self.replay()

# Verify that testable_method() looks up a utility for
# IMyInterface and calls do_something() on it, which returns
# "foo".
