Test Spy , Stub, Double, Mock. Test WTF's

Thu, 13 May 2010 20:22:00 GMT

Peer programming with an Intermediate today and I called my Test Double a xxxxSpy. My Peer immediately asked me why? I quickly ran a survey with several friends who all do TDD and realised that the difference between different types of Test Doubles is not well understood.

Since I am a believer that a common language helps communication I decided to quickly write this blog. It mostly contains references to other peoples excellent writtings on these topics.
