akeley v0.3.2

akeley

being a mocking utility

status

very much a work in progress. not recommended for any use outside of experimentation until further notice.

mock something out

    var Mock = require('akeley').Mock

    var mock_akeley = new Mock({
        name: 'Henry Akeley',
        profession: 'Antiquarian',
        vitals: {
            age: 63,
            height: "5'0",
            weight: "160"
        },
        thoughts:[],
        speak: function() {
            console.log('hello');
        },
        think: function(thought) {
            this.thoughts.push(thought);
        }
    });

    mock_akeley.speak();
    mock_akeley.think('i hate the mi-go');
    mock_akeley.think('i love the mi-go');

    mock_akeley.speak.called; // true
    mock_akeley.speak.calls; // 1
    mock_akeley.speakargs; // [ [] ]

    mock_akeley.think.called; // true
    mock_akeley.think.calls; // 2
    mock_akeley.think.args; // [ ['i hate the mi-go'], ['i love the mi-go'] ]

just make a watched function

    // set a return value
    var mockf = Mock.create_func({return_value:5});
    mockf(): // 5
    mockf.called // true

    // wrap a real function
    var mockf = Mock.create_func({
        func: some_useful_real_func
    });

    // cause side effects
    var mockf = Mock.create_func({
        side_effect: function() { throw 'error' }
    });

create a nested structure

    var nested = Mock.create_nested_obj({}, ['hi', 'there', 'how', 'are', 'you']);
    nested.hi.there.how.are.you = 'hi';
