grunt-mock v0.0.3

grunt-mock

The grunt task is used to execute the specified mock-functions and save the result

In a unit test, mock objects can simulate the behavior of complex, real objects and are therefore useful when a real object is impractical or impossible to incorporate into a unit test.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-mock --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-mock');

grunt-mock task

Run this task with the grunt mock command.

Task targets, files and options may be specified according to the grunt Configuring tasks guide.

Usage Example

module.exports = function (grunt) {
	grunt.initConfig({
		mock: {
			test: {
				files: {
					'output.json': [ 'mocks/**/*.js' ]
				}
			}
		}
	});

	grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-mock');
	grunt.registerTask('default', ['mock']);
};

Input file

module.exports = {
	'mock#1': function () {
		return 1;
	},

	'mock#2': function () {
		return 2;
	}
};

Output file

{
	"mock#1": 1,
	"mock#2": 2
}

Options

process

Type: Function (data, original) Default: (data, original) => original;

This option as an advanced way to control the file contents that are created.

module.exports = function (grunt) {
	grunt.initConfig({
		mock: {
			test: {
				options: {
					process: function (data, original) {
						var output = {};

						data.forEach(function (mocks) {
							for (var mock in mocks.data) {
								output[mock] = mocks.data[mock](mock, mocks.file);
							}
						});

						return JSON.stringify([ output ], null, '\t');
					}
				},

				files: {
					'output.json': [ 'mocks/**/*.js' ]
				}
			}
		}
	});

	grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-mock');
