NAME Test::Builder::Mock::Class - Simulating other classes for Test::Builder SYNOPSIS use Test::Builder::Mock::Class ':all'; use Test::More 'no_plan'; # concrete mock class mock_class 'Net::FTP' => 'Net::FTP::Mock'; my $mock_object1 = Net::FTP::Mock->new; $mock_object1->mock_tally; # anonymous mocked class my $metamock2 = mock_anon_class 'Net::FTP'; my $mock_object2 = $metamock2->new_object; $mock_object2->mock_tally; # anonymous class with role applied my $metamock3 = Test::Builder::Mock::Class->create_mock_anon_class( class => 'Net::FTP', roles => [ 'My::Handler::Role' ], ); my $mock_object3 = $metamock3->new_object; $mock_object3->mock_tally; DESCRIPTION This module adds support for standard Test::Builder framework (Test::Simple or Test::More) to Test::Mock::Class. Mock class can be used to create mock objects which can simulate the behavior of complex, real (non-mock) objects and are therefore useful when a real object is impractical or impossible to incorporate into a unit test. See Test::Mock::Class for more detailed documentation. BUGS The API is not stable yet and can be changed in future.
