Auto mocking containers are designed to reduce the friction of keeping unit test beds in sync with the code being tested as systems are updated and evolve over time. Background The Dependency Inversion Principle states: High level modules should not depend upon low level modules. Both should depend upon abstractions. Abstractions should not depend upon details. Details should depend upon abstractions. As more developers follow this and the rest of Robert Martin’s SOLID principles, methods and classes become much smaller with dependent objects injected into them, typically through constructor injection. As additional dependencies are needed (or the code is refactored to improve dependency isolation), the signatures of...

If you want it done right, you've got to do it yourself, they say. Although the...
