Delphi-Autofixture

Based on ideas from the .NET Autofixture. Requires Delphi Mocks to be installed

uses DUnitX for unit testing.

There are 3 basic things needed for unit tests in delphi.

1. A unit testing framework, like DUnitX (Included in Delphi and is recommended)
2. A way to mock classes, which can be done with a mocking framework like Delphi Mocks or Spring4d
3. A way to generate test data, which can be done easily using AutoFixture.

AutoFixture is created to be an easy way to generate test data.

Features

At a peek AutoFixtures has the following features <ul> <li> Creates objects and initialize them with dummy data for test purposes <li> Can initialize entire object hierarchies <li> Highly configurable - how much data do you want, and how should it be initialized <li> Integrates with mocking, and provides easy creation, setup and injection of mocks </ul>

Future

The following features are not ready, but work is in progress <ul> <li> Handling of multiple mocks of the same type - currently only one mock object of each class can be active. <li> Easy setup of multiple mock objects at once. </ul>
