mocksocket

mocksocket

tiny class providing an IO/TCPSocket mock, full duplex and everything. mainly useful for testing TCPSocket applications.

require 'mocksocket' client, server = MockSocket.pipe #=> [M, M] client.puts "hello, I'm a client!" server.gets #=> "hello, I'm a client!\n" server.puts "welcome, client." client.gets #=> "welcome, client.\n"

it uses Timeout, so instead of stalled tests, you get some timeout exception, if you're trying to read from an empty buffer.

methods implemented: #puts, #print, #gets, #eof? and the ever-handy #empty?

as well there's tiny test extensions for test/unit:

require 'mocksocket/test'

module Test::Unit::Assertions include MockSocket::Assertions end

def setup @c, @s = MockSocket.pipe end

def test_empty_buffer assert_empty_buffer @c end

.. and bacon:

require 'mocksocket/bacon'

describe "awesome" do before { @c, @s = MockSocket.pipe } end

should "be empty" do @c.should.be empty_buffer end
