import unittest
from mockito import mock, when, verify
class DemoTest(unittest.TestCase):
def testStubbing(self):
# create a mock
ourMock = mock()
# stub it
when(ourMock).getStuff("cool").thenReturn("cool stuff")
# use the mock
self.assertEqual("cool stuff", ourMock.getStuff("cool"))
# what happens when you pass different argument?
self.assertEqual(None, ourMock.getStuff("different argument"))
def testVerification(self):
# create a mock
theMock = mock()
# use the mock
theMock.doStuff("cool")
# verify the interactions. Method and parameters must match. Otherwise verification error.
verify(theMock).doStuff("cool")
