EasyMock / beNiceOnProperties

clebert.suconic Jun 19, 2008 7:25 PM

I have created a method on this test I'm working on (MeassingServerManagementImplTest::beNiceOnProperties), that if you guys don't think it is a stupidity I could put it on the super class UnitTestCase.

The idea is, on regular mocks (Which I think we should be using most of the time, unles I'm mistaken), you could ignore any calls to read methods such as getId, this way tracing or minor refactorings would not affect the test.

But I wanted to pass that by you guys first.

Well.. whether to ignore certain calls or not depends on the particular test, so I'd rather not try and apply such rules to all tests.

That method is just an utility... instead of manually add ignores to every read property the method does it automatically considering a list of ignores. It's your choice to use it or now when you write the test.
