Moq testing void method

问题:

Hi I am new to Moq testing and having hard time to do a simple assertion. I am using an interface

 public interface IAdd
 {
     void add(int a, int b);
 }

Moq for the IAdd interface is:

  Mock<IAdd> mockadd = new Mock<IAdd>();
  mockadd.Setup(x => x.add(It.IsAny<int>(), It.IsAny<int>()).callback((int a, int b) => { a+b;});
  IAdd testing = mockadd.Object;

Since the add method is void, it doesn't return any value to Assert with. How can I assert this setup?

回答1:

Why mocking is used? It used for verifying that SUT (system under test) interacts correctly with its dependencies (which should be mocked). Correct interaction means calling correct dependency members with correct parameters.

You should never assert on value returned by mock. That is dummy value which has no relation to production code. The only value you should assert on is a value returned by SUT. SUT is the only thing you should write assertions for.

Also you should never test interfaces. Because there is nothing to test. Interface is just a API description. It has no implementation. So, stop and think about what code are you testing here? Is this is a real code, which executed in your application?

So, you should mock IAdd interface only for testing object which uses IAdd interface.

Better to provide more context, but typically it used like this:

var mockAdd = new Mock<IAdd>();
mockAdd.Setup(x => x.Add(1, 2)).Verifiable();

//do something here what is using mockAdd.Add

mockAdd.VerifyAll();
