Mocking With Mockery (Ski PHP 2016)

Mockery is a mock object framework that may be used with any unit testing framework. It is a flexible and human-readable domain specific language (DSL) for mocking objects in unit tests. With it, we can create some pretty powerful tests and even test legacy code containing hard dependencies. In this talk, I’ll show how to get started with Mockery. I’ll start with some basic mocking techniques and then move on to cover more advanced topics, including static methods, partial mocks, final classes, and hard dependencies.

4. Introduction to Mocking
6. INTRODUCTION TO MOCKING What is a mock object? ▸ Mock objects are a form of test double ▸ Test doubles are “any kind of pretend object used in place of a real object for testing purposes” (Martin Fowler) ▸ Mocks differ from other test doubles (like stubs) in that they are programmed with expectations about the calls they should receive ▸ Mocks are used in unit tests to replace behaviors of objects, services, etc. that are external to the current unit being tested but need to be called by it
7. INTRODUCTION TO MOCKING Mockery vs. PHPUnit ▸ Mockery provides a better user experience for working with mock objects, through an easy-to-use API ▸ Mockery provides abilities to mock things that PHPUnit can’t, like static methods and hard dependencies ▸ Mockery may be used together with PHPUnit or with any other testing framework
8. Getting Started With Mockery
9. GETTING STARTED Installing Mockery composer require mockery/mockery composer require phpunit/phpunit
10. GETTING STARTED namespace Ramsey\Talks; class Temperature { public function __construct($service) { $this->_service = $service; } public function average() { $total = 0; for ($i = 0; $i < 3; $i++) { $total += $this->_service->readTemp(); } return $total / 3; } }
11. GETTING STARTED namespace Ramsey\Talks; class Service { public function readTemp() { // Communicate with an external service and return // the current temperature. } }
12. GETTING STARTED $service = new \Ramsey\Talks\Service($params); $temperature = new \Ramsey\Talks\Temperature($service); echo $temperature->average();
13. GETTING STARTED namespace Ramsey\Talks\Test; class TemperatureTest extends \PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase { public function tearDown() { \Mockery::close(); } public function testGetsAverageTemperature() { $service = \Mockery::mock('servicemock'); $service->shouldReceive('readTemp') ->times(3) ->andReturn(10, 12, 14); $temperature = new \Ramsey\Talks\Temperature($service); $this->assertEquals(12, $temperature->average()); } }
14. GETTING STARTED Review ▸ A mock replaces an object that is expected to make certain calls ▸ \Mockery::mock('servicemock') creates a \Mockery\Mock object and is the loosest form of mock object ▸ Be sure to provide a tearDown() method in your tests that calls \Mockery::close(), to avoid problems
15. Mock Object Basics
16. MOCK OBJECT BASICS $mock = \Mockery::mock(['foo' => 1, 'bar' => 2]); $this->assertEquals(1, $mock->foo()); $this->assertEquals(2, $mock->bar());
17. MOCK OBJECT BASICS namespace Ramsey\Talks; class Temperature { public function __construct(Service $service) { $this->_service = $service; } public function average() { $total = 0; for ($i = 0; $i < 3; $i++) { $total += $this->_service->readTemp(); } return $total / 3; } }
18. MOCK OBJECT BASICS $service = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\Service'); $service = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\AbstractService'); $service = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\ServiceInterface'); $service = \Mockery::mock( 'Ramsey\\Talks\\ServiceInterface, Countable, RecursiveIterator' );
19. MOCK OBJECT BASICS $mock = \Mockery::mock('classname', [ 'methodOne' => 'some return value', 'methodTwo' => 'another return value', 'methodThree' => 'yet another return value', ]); $this->assertEquals('some return value', $mock->methodOne()); $this->assertEquals('another return value', $mock->methodTwo()); $this->assertEquals('yet another return value', $mock->methodThree());
20. MOCK OBJECT BASICS Review ▸ Mockery allows you to define a named or unnamed mock object, naming all its methods and return values ▸ Mock objects can be type-hinted using a class, abstract class, or interface ▸ By default, any method called that is not defined will result in a BadMethodCallException; to return null instead, use the shouldIgnoreMissing() behavior modifier
21. Mock Expectations
22. MOCK EXPECTATIONS $service = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\Service'); $service->shouldReceive('readTemp') ->times(3) ->andReturn(10, 12, 14); $service = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\Service', [ 'readTemp' => 10 ]); We could have defined it like this: But then we couldn’t test the expectation that it should be called three times.
23. MOCK EXPECTATIONS namespace Ramsey\Talks; class Temperature { public function __construct($service) { $this->_service = $service; } public function average() { $total = 0; for ($i = 0; $i < 3; $i++) { $total += $this->_service->readTemp(); } return $total / 3; } }
24. MOCK EXPECTATIONS $service = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\Service'); $service->shouldReceive('readTemp') ->times(3) ->andReturn(10, 12, 14);
25. MOCK EXPECTATIONS $mock = \Mockery::mock('Foo'); $mock->shouldReceive('methodCall') ->with('method', 'arg', 'values') ->andReturn(true);
26. MOCK EXPECTATIONS $mock->shouldReceive('methodCall') ->with('different', 'arg', 'values') ->andReturn(false);
27. MOCK EXPECTATIONS $mock->shouldReceive('methodCall') ->withNoArgs() ->andReturn(123);
28. MOCK EXPECTATIONS $this->assertFalse($mock->methodCall('different', 'arg', 'values')); $this->assertTrue($mock->methodCall('method', 'arg', 'values')); $this->assertEquals(123, $mock->methodCall());
29. MOCK EXPECTATIONS $user = \Mockery::mock('User'); $user->shouldReceive('getFriendById') ->andReturnUsing(function ($id) { // Do some special handling with the arguments here. // For example: $friendStub = file_get_contents("tests/stubs/friend{$id}.json"); return json_decode($friendStub); }); $friend = $user->getFriendById(1); $this->assertEquals('Jane Doe', $friend->name);
30. MOCK EXPECTATIONS /** * @expectedException RuntimeException * @expectedExceptionMessage An error occurred */ public function testServiceThrowsException() { $service = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\Service'); $service->shouldReceive('readTemp') ->andThrow('RuntimeException', 'An error occurred'); $temperature = new \Ramsey\Talks\Temperature($service); $average = $temperature->average(); }
31. MOCK EXPECTATIONS Review ▸ Expectations on a mocked method affect its behavior depending on inputs and number of times called ▸ We covered times(), with(), withNoArgs(), andReturn(), andReturnUsing(), and andThrow(), but Mockery provides many more options
32. Partial Mocks
33. PARTIAL MOCKS $service = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\Service[readTemp]'); $service->shouldReceive('readTemp') ->times(3) ->andReturn(10, 12, 14); $temperature = new \Ramsey\Talks\Temperature($service); $this->assertEquals(12, $temperature->average());
34. PARTIAL MOCKS $service = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\Service[readTemp]', [ $constructorArg1, $constructorArg2, ]);
35. Mocking Final Classes
36. MOCKING FINAL CLASSES $staticUuid = 'dd39edd7-bb9c-414d-a7a0-78bd41edb4fb'; $uuid = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\Uuid'); $uuid->shouldReceive('uuid4') ->andReturn($staticUuid); $this->assertEquals($staticUuid, $uuid->uuid4());
37. MOCKING FINAL CLASSES 1) Ramsey\Talks\Test\UserTest::testUuid Mockery\Exception: The class \Ramsey\Talks\Uuid is marked final and its methods cannot be replaced. Classes marked final can be passed in to \Mockery::mock() as instantiated objects to create a partial mock, but only if the mock is not subject to type hinting checks.
38. MOCKING FINAL CLASSES $staticUuid = 'dd39edd7-bb9c-414d-a7a0-78bd41edb4fb'; $uuidInstance = new \Ramsey\Talks\Uuid(); $uuid = \Mockery::mock($uuidInstance); $uuid->shouldReceive('uuid4') ->andReturn($staticUuid); $this->assertEquals($staticUuid, $uuid->uuid4()); This is referred to as a “proxied partial” mock.
39. Mocking Public Properties
40. MOCKING PUBLIC PROPERTIES $mock = \Mockery::mock('Foo'); $mock->publicProperty = 123; $this->assertEquals(123, $mock->publicProperty);
41. MOCKING PUBLIC PROPERTIES $mock = \Mockery::mock('Foo'); $mock->shouldReceive('methodCall') ->andSet('publicProperty', 123) ->andReturn(true); $this->assertTrue($mock->methodCall()); $this->assertEquals(123, $mock->publicProperty);
42. Mocking Fluent Interfaces
43. MOCKING FLUENT INTERFACES namespace Ramsey\Talks; class Bar { public function getSomething(Foo $foo) { $result = $foo->bar()->baz()->qux()->quux(); return "Now, we're {$result}"; } }
44. MOCKING FLUENT INTERFACES $mock = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\Foo'); $mock->shouldReceive('bar->baz->qux->quux') ->andReturn('done!'); $bar = new \Ramsey\Talks\Bar; $this->assertEquals("Now, we're done!", $bar->getSomething($mock));
45. Mocking Static Methods
46. MOCKING STATIC METHODS namespace Ramsey\Talks; class User { public $addressId; public function getAddress() { return Address::getById($this->addressId); } }
47. MOCKING STATIC METHODS /** * @runInSeparateProcess * @preserveGlobalState disabled */ public function testGetAddress() { $address = \Mockery::mock('alias:Ramsey\\Talks\\Address'); $address->shouldReceive('getById') ->andReturn(new \Ramsey\Talks\Address()); $user = new \Ramsey\Talks\User(); $this->assertInstanceOf( 'Ramsey\\Talks\\Address', $user->getAddress() ); }
48. MOCKING STATIC METHODS 1) Ramsey\Talks\Test\UserTest::testGetAddress Mockery\Exception\RuntimeException: Could not load mock Ramsey\Talks\Address, class already exists
49. MOCKING STATIC METHODS /** * @runInSeparateProcess * @preserveGlobalState disabled */ public function testGetAddress() { $address = \Mockery::mock('alias:Ramsey\\Talks\\Address'); $address->shouldReceive('getById') ->andReturn(new \Ramsey\Talks\Address()); $user = new \Ramsey\Talks\User(); $this->assertInstanceOf( 'Ramsey\\Talks\\Address', $user->getAddress() ); }
50. Mocking Hard Dependencies
51. MOCKING HARD DEPENDENCIES namespace Ramsey\Talks; class User { public $addressId; public function getAddress() { return new Address($this->addressId); } }
52. MOCKING HARD DEPENDENCIES /** * @runInSeparateProcess * @preserveGlobalState disabled */ public function testGetAddress() { $address = \Mockery::mock('overload:Ramsey\\Talks\\Address'); $user = new \Ramsey\Talks\User(); $user->addressId = 123; $this->assertInstanceOf( 'Ramsey\\Talks\\Address', $user->getAddress() ); }
53. Wrapping Up
54. WRAPPING UP $foo = \Mockery::mock('Ramsey\\Talks\\Foo'); /* ... */ if ($foo instanceof \Mockery\MockInterface) { /* ... */ }
55. WRAPPING UP Review ▸ Mock objects are used to replace real objects in tests ▸ Mockery lets us create dumb mocks, mocks inherited from classes and interfaces, partial mocks, and aliases ▸ We saw how to use proxied partial mocks to mock final classes and methods ▸ We mocked public properties and fluent interfaces ▸ We created an aliased mock to mock a static method and an overloaded mock to instantiate instance mocks with the new keyword
