This talk is an introduction to the different ways people use test doubles (be they mocks, fakes, stubs, or spies). Our goal will be to establish a more sophisticated means of communicating on the topic. This talk discusses our need to understand that reality is a variable under our control, the pros & cons of the different testing strategies, and the smells of test double abuse.
