Join us Wednesday, August 17, 2005 at the Twin Cities Java User Group where Bob McCune will talk about Developer Testing with Mock Objects.

Unit testing is an essential practice for developers seeking to write better-designed, higher quality software. However, testing objects in isolation often presents some unique challenges. The challenges are even greater in the context of a J2EE application where many of the objects you interact with are provided by the container. In his presentation, Developer Testing with Mock Objects, Bob McCune will discuss how to effectively employ a mock objects strategy to develop isolated, out-of-container tests. The presentation will provide an overview of mock objects, what they are and why they're important, will discuss static and dynamic mocking tools and techniques, and will present several examples illustrating the benefits of this approach.
