EasyMock gentle introduction?

Question

I am completely baffled while trying to use EasyMock. Does anybody know of a (very) gentle introduction to EasyMock?

I already heavily use TDD, and I use mocking (which I guess is almost a prerequisite for doing TDD). I have just never used a framework for mocking before.

Answer 1

Here are some articles you might like:

• Easier testing with EasyMock
• Unit testing with JUnit and EasyMock
• Mock Object Testing With EasyMock 2
• Getting Started with EasyMock2

You could also check out other mocking frameworks such as Mockito, PowerMock and JMockit.

Answer 2

How about their own Documentation? http://easymock.org/EasyMock3_0_Documentation.html

Answer 3

Have you tried this tutorial? http://www.vogella.de/articles/EasyMock/article.html

Do you already have a background in Test Driven Development? If not, I'd get my hands on a copy of Roy Osherove's book The Art of Unit Testing. http://artofunittesting.com/
