mock-factory v1.0.3

MockFactory

A Jasmine test util that uses a TyoeScript class or an instance of a class to create a mock instance of that class.

Prerequisite

This util is built with and for Jasmine test framework. Basic understanding of Jasmine is assumed.

This util requires ES6 Proxy and only contains un-compiled *.ts files which must be compiled with a TypeScript compiler.

Usage

Install

npm install mock-factory --save-dev

Import

Import the library with ES6 Module Syntax:

import { MockFactory } from 'mock-factory'

Creating a mock

From a TypeScript class

class RealClass {
  // This is a typescript class
}

...

const mockInstance = MockFactory.create(RealClass);

From an instance of a class

const realInstance: RealInterface;

...

const mockInstance = MockFactory.create(realInstance);

Using a mock

MockFactory.create() will return an object with the same interface as the original object. You can invoke methods and get/set properties on this object.

• All the public and private methods will have a jasmine.Spy as the initial value. The Spy cannot be overwritten.

• All the public and private properties will have undefined as the initial value. The value can be overwritten with anything.

Examples

class RealClass {
  public doSomething(...arg: any[]) { ... }
  public someProperty = 'whatever';
}

const mockInstance = MockFactory.create(RealClass);

// get, set property
expect(mockInstance.someProperty).toBeUndefined();
mockInstance.someProperty = 'hello';
expect(mockInstance.someProperty).toBe('hello');

// use function spy
expect(mockInstance.doSomething).not.toHaveBeenCalled();

(mockInstance.doSomething as jasmine.Spy).and.returnValue('awesome!');

expect(mockInstance.doSomething(42)).toBe('awesome!');
expect(mockInstance.doSomething).toHaveBeenCalledWith(42);
