我读过各种关于测试中模仿和存根的文章,包括Martin Fowler的《Mocks Aren't Stubs》,但我仍然不理解其中的区别。

参见下面使用c#和Moq框架的mock和存根的例子。Moq对于存根没有特殊的关键字,但是您也可以使用Mock对象来创建存根。

namespace UnitTestProject2
{
    using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting;
    using Moq;
    [TestClass]
    public class UnitTest1
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Test using Mock to Verify that GetNameWithPrefix method calls Repository GetName method "once" when Id is greater than Zero
        /// </summary>
        [TestMethod]
        public void GetNameWithPrefix_IdIsTwelve_GetNameCalledOnce()
        {
            // Arrange 
            var mockEntityRepository = new Mock<IEntityRepository>();
            mockEntityRepository.Setup(m => m.GetName(It.IsAny<int>()));

            var entity = new EntityClass(mockEntityRepository.Object);
            // Act 
            var name = entity.GetNameWithPrefix(12);
            // Assert
            mockEntityRepository.Verify(m => m.GetName(It.IsAny<int>()), Times.Once);
        }
        /// <summary>
        /// Test using Mock to Verify that GetNameWithPrefix method doesn't call Repository GetName method when Id is Zero
        /// </summary>
        [TestMethod]
        public void GetNameWithPrefix_IdIsZero_GetNameNeverCalled()
        {
            // Arrange 
            var mockEntityRepository = new Mock<IEntityRepository>();
            mockEntityRepository.Setup(m => m.GetName(It.IsAny<int>()));
            var entity = new EntityClass(mockEntityRepository.Object);
            // Act 
            var name = entity.GetNameWithPrefix(0);
            // Assert
            mockEntityRepository.Verify(m => m.GetName(It.IsAny<int>()), Times.Never);
        }
        /// <summary>

        {

            var stubEntityRepository = new Mock<IEntityRepository>();
            stubEntityRepository.Setup(m => m.GetName(It.IsAny<int>()))
                .Returns("Stub");
            const string EXPECTED_NAME_WITH_PREFIX = "Mr. Stub";
            var entity = new EntityClass(stubEntityRepository.Object);
            // Act 
            var name = entity.GetNameWithPrefix(12);
            // Assert
            Assert.AreEqual(EXPECTED_NAME_WITH_PREFIX, name);
        }
    }
    public class EntityClass
    {
        private IEntityRepository _entityRepository;
        public EntityClass(IEntityRepository entityRepository)
        {
            this._entityRepository = entityRepository;
        }
        public string Name { get; set; }
        public string GetNameWithPrefix(int id)
        {
            string name = string.Empty;
            if (id > 0)
            {
                name = this._entityRepository.GetName(id);
            }
            return "Mr. " + name;
        }
    }
    public interface IEntityRepository
    {
        string GetName(int id);
    }
    public class EntityRepository:IEntityRepository
    {
        public string GetName(int id)
        {
            // Code to connect to DB and get name based on Id
            return "NameFromDb";
        }
    }
}

以下是我的理解……

如果您在本地创建测试对象并将其提供给本地服务,则使用的是模拟对象。 这将为您在本地服务中实现的方法提供测试。 它用于验证行为 当您从真正的服务提供者获得测试数据时(尽管是从接口的测试版本获得对象的测试版本),您是在使用存根 存根可以有逻辑来接受特定的输入并给出相应的输出来帮助您执行状态验证…

测试双打:

Fake: Fakes are objects that have working implementations, but not the same as production one. Such as: in-memory implementation of Data Access Object or Repository. Stub: Stub is an object that holds predefined data and uses it to answer calls during tests. Such as: an object that needs to grab some data from the database to respond to a method call. Mocks: Mocks are objects that register calls they receive. In test assertion, we can verify on Mocks that all expected actions were performed. Such as: a functionality that calls e-mail sending service. for more just check this.

Stubs vs. Mocks Stubs provide specific answers to methods calls ex: myStubbedService.getValues() just return a String needed by the code under test used by code under test to isolate it cannot fail test ex: myStubbedService.getValues() just returns the stubbed value often implement abstract methods Mocks "superset" of stubs; can assert that certain methods are called ex: verify that myMockedService.getValues() is called only once used to test behaviour of code under test can fail test ex: verify that myMockedService.getValues() was called once; verification fails, because myMockedService.getValues() was not called by my tested code often mocks interfaces

这张幻灯片很好地解释了主要的区别。

我在阅读《单元测试的艺术》时,偶然发现了以下定义:

fake是一个通用术语,可以用来描述存根或模拟对象(手写或其他),因为它们看起来都像真实的对象。赝品是存根还是mock取决于它在当前测试中的使用方式。如果它用于检查交互(根据其断言),则它是一个模拟对象。否则,它就是存根。
