README

Simple module to help with creating mocks using mockery. You won't have to continually reference Mockery\Mockery and keep your tests a little DRY'er.

Installation

• composer require --dev unit-testing/mockery-helper:dev-master
• or in require-dev block of composer.json, add "unit-testing/mockery-helper": "dev-master" and then run composer update
• don't forget to require-dev mockery/mockery

Usage

• In your phpunit test, use UnitTesting\MockeryHelper\MockeryTrait.
• in your tearDown() method call $this->closeMocks()
• When you want to mock something, use $this->mock() as an alias for Mockery::mock()
• You can also use $this->spy() as an alias for Mockery::spy()
• Use the result of one of the above function calls as you normally would for your assertions.
• mockery method simply forwards any call to the Mockery static. The first argument is the method, and subsequent arguments are params for the Mockery method.

Example

<?php
use UnitTesting\MockeryHelper\MockeryTrait;
class SomeTest extends \PHPUnit_Framework_Testcase {
	use MockeryTrait;
	protected function tearDown()
	{
		$this->cleanUpSomeStuffBeforeEachTest();
		$this->closeMocks();
	}

	function testSomeMethodWithAMock()
	{
		$mock = $this->mock('Child');
		$parent = new ParentThatDependsChild($mock);

		$mock->shouldReceive('doSomething')->once()->with($this->mockery('type', 'string'))->andReturn('result');

		$result = $parent->someMethodWhichCallsDoSomethingOfChild('foo');
		$this->assertEquals('result', $result);
	}
}
