Mocking

Abstract

One of the major goals, whether it’s on the iOS platform or not, is to isolate the code that we’re testing. When we write our tests, we want to test a specific class’s method without any of the associated interactions with other classes in the app or any external elements, such as a web service. We should be testing a single method, not its dependencies. This method should also be the only code covered by the test, with everything else mocked.
