Hi
i just found the coolest way how to mock some class that have chained method. here the sample.
Our case now, we want to mock isAuthenticated in securityContext (Symfony2)
// some snippet from your class
$securityContext = $this->get('security.context'); //get container security.context
$isAutenticated = $securityContext->getToken()->isAuthenticated();
Using PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase
$token = $this->getMockBuilder('App\FooBundle\Security\Authentication\Token\UserToken')->disableOriginalConstructor()->getMock();
$token->expects($this->any())->method('isAuthenticated')->will($this->returnValue(true));
$securityContext = $this->getMockBuilder('Symfony\Component\Security\Core\SecurityContext')->disableOriginalConstructor()->getMock();
$securityContext->expects($this->any())->method('getToken')->will($this->returnValue($token));
$this->assertTrue($securityContext->getToken()->isAuthenticated());
as you see, you need mock UserToken first, then put it in securityContext.
using mockery
$securityContext = Mockery::mock('Symfony\Component\Security\Core\SecurityContextInterface');
$securityContext->shouldReceive('getToken->isAuthenticated')->andReturn(true);
Just type chain method ‘getToken->isAuthenticate’ then you don’t need mock UserToken class 🙂
