In fairness - there is something lacking in the slide set - it suggests that mocha supports parameter matchers and flexmock does not. In fact, flexmock does. You can do this: mock.should_receive(:message).with(String).once and it will pass if the mock receives the message w/ a String. In mocha, you have to say: mock.expects(:message).with(kind_of(String)) Flexmock compares args using ===, which is why this works implicitly. Similarly, mocha, flexmock, and rspec can all take an argument matcher - an object that responds to == and gives you the right answer. So, you can do this w/ any of these frameworks: class LessThan def initialize(threshold) @threshold = threshold end def ==(other) other < @threshold end end def less_than(expected) LessThan.new(expected) end mock.expects(:message).with(less_than(3)) mock.should_receive(:message).with(less_than(3)) Cheers, David > > I have no problem using a external mocking framework but its the choosing. > convention over configuration. > > > > On 9/1/07, rupert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > On 1 Sep 2007, at 18:16, Andrew WC Brown wrote: > > > > > My question is what would you recommend for Mocking? > > > > > > Mocha or FlexMock? > > > > Personally, I've not got a clue as all I've used to date is the rspec > > mocking framework.
