Mock Thread fails

[Edoardo]

I'm using JustMock Q1 2012 SP1 (2012.1.508.6) and when I try to create a mock of the Thread class, I get an exception.

I tried the following methods:

- var mock = Mock.Create<Thread>.Create(any argument);
- var mock = Mock.Create<Thread>.Create(new Thread(delegate{}));

Both fails whether I use the MockClass attribute or not.

Any suggestion?
Thanks.

Hi Edoardo,
Thanks again for contacting us. Here it is possible to mock the Thread class in one of the following two ways:

#1 : Using Constructor.Mocked so that it does not execute the real constructor:

var mock = Mock.Create<Thread>(Constructor.Mocked);
Assert.IsNotNull(mock);

#2: By injecting the original ParameterizedThreadStart argument:

[TestMethod]
public void TestMethod1()
{
    var parameterizedStart = new ParameterizedThreadStart(target);
    //var mock = Mock.Create<Thread>.Create(any argument);
    var mock = Mock.Create<Thread>(parameterizedStart);
    Assert.IsNotNull(mock);

}

void target(object sender)
{

}

Hope this answers your question.


Kind Regards
