PHP Mocking Final Class

I am attempting to mock a php final class but since it is declared final I keep receiving this error:

PHPUnit_Framework_Exception: Class "Doctrine\ORM\Query" is declared "final" and cannot be mocked.

Is there anyway to get around this final behavior just for my unit tests without introducing any new frameworks?

Solution

  • Since you mentioned you don't want to use any other framework, you are only leaving yourself one option: uopz

    uopz is a black magic extension of the runkit-and-scary-stuff genre, intended to help with QA infrastructure.

    uopz_flags is a function that can modify the flags of functions, methods and classes.

    <?php
final class Test {}

/** ZEND_ACC_CLASS is defined as 0, just looks nicer ... **/

uopz_flags(Test::class, null, ZEND_ACC_CLASS);

$reflector = new ReflectionClass(Test::class);

var_dump($reflector->isFinal());
?>

    Will yield

    bool(false)
