[stp-dev] Consider Easymock as a tool for testing in STP/Eclipse?
|
Hi all,
I was thinking that using Easymock in the test fragments would make
writing some of the unit tests quite a bit easier. Esp when big
interfaces need to be mocked (such as IFile or IProject) it would help a
lot.
I have used EasyMock (http://www.easymock.org/) quite a bit in the past,
and although it requires some 'getting used to it' I have found it a
great tool for creating mockobjects in unit tests. EasyMock has an MIT
license which I think is compatible with EPL.
I did quick search in IPZilla but didnt find any previous requests for
EasyMock or any other Mock object systems. So I guess if we can agree
that EasyMock is good, I could start by filing a CQ/IPZilla entry to get
it approved into Eclipse.
Anyone any thoughts?
