I have been attempting to use GoogleMock to override a few specific methods in a underlying class, however I seem to be getting the base constructor, rather than the mocked object. Is there something obvious I am missing here?
I have been following the following example: http://blog.divebomb.org/2011/07/my-first-c-cmake-googletest-and-googlemock/
However, in my test, I am still getting my 'printf' called. Any thoughts?
Here are the classes/header files:
A.h:
#pragma once
class A
{
public:
virtual void methodToOverride();
void someConcreteMethod();
int mMemberVariable;
};
A.cpp:
#include "A.h"
void A::methodToOverride()
{
std::printf("Hello World");
}
void A::someConcreteMethod()
{
}
B.h:
#include "A.h"
class B
{
public:
B(A &injectedClass);
~B();
void MethodToTest();
private:
A mA;
};
B.cpp:
#include "B.h"
B::B(A & injectedClass):mA(injectedClass)
{
mA.someConcreteMethod();
}
B::~B(){}
void B::MethodToTest()
{
mA.methodToOverride();
}
MockA.h:
#include "A.h"
#include "gmock\gmock.h"
class MockA : public A
{
public:
MOCK_METHOD0(methodToOverride, void());
};
BTest.cpp:
#include "gtest/gtest.h"
#include "MockA.h"
#include "B.h"
using ::testing::AtLeast;
using ::testing::_;
TEST(BTest, mockObject)
{
// Arrange
MockA injectedMock;
EXPECT_CALL(injectedMock, methodToOverride())
.Times(AtLeast(1));
B classUnderTest(injectedMock);
// Act
classUnderTest.MethodToTest();
}
One major problem is that B::mA
is an instance of the A
class. It doesn't know anything about child-classes and objects.
The member B::mA
either needs to be a reference or a pointer for polymorphism to work.
