Replace real objects with fakes (mocks, stubs, etc) while testing.
Project description
Complete documentation is available at http://farmdev.com/projects/fudge/
This module is designed for two specific situations:
Replace an object
Temporarily return a canned value for a method or allow a method to be called without affect.
Ensure an object is used correctly
Declare expectations about what methods should be called and what arguments should be sent.
Here is a quick preview of how you can test code that sends email without actually sending email:
>>> import fudge
>>> SMTP = fudge.Fake('SMTP')
>>> SMTP = SMTP.expects('__init__')
>>> SMTP = SMTP.expects('connect')
>>> SMTP = SMTP.expects('sendmail').with_arg_count(3)
>>> SMTP = SMTP.expects('close')
