Hi Peter,

I’ve read the Mock objects and CalitkoMocks documentation and I must say it’s very good written and it was really enjoyable reading!

I’ve no experience with mocks and I’ve to admit that I’ve never heard of them before. For the first time I saw them used in the calitko sources and I was wondering what improvements could it brought to the software development. Now I’ve created a better image of what they do and thanks to your examples in CalitkoMocks I was (hopefully) able to understand the basic principle of mocks. But the only way how to get to know them better is actually to start working with them so I’m looking forward to try them myself (perhaps when we’ll testing BitTorrent communication with trackers)!

But first I’ll try to review the code in Protocols/Generics as you’ve suggested and I’m sure that there is a lot of examples I can learn from (and possibly suggest some ideas to the current design/code).

Btw I’ve corrected some typing errors but as I’ve written in the comments - feel free to revert anything I’ve done.

Have a nice day! Petr

Would you like to post a relpy?
