    Mocking Property Getters and Setters

    In typical unit testing scenarios, mocking property getters and setters isn't high on the list of areas of concern. Where it usually comes into play is when an entity’s properties’ values (or the act of setting them) are part of the scaffolding, or behavior for the system under test.

In my post on Why SOLID Matters, we refactored a small piece of code to be more SOLID.  Granted, it was a simplistic example, but good for illustrating several key points on SOLID.  We will continue using the same code to discuss the benefits of Mocking.  As a refresher, we ended...
