This release includes facility for interaction based testing. Is it something that would cover you requirements?
I guess it depends on what you mean by that term. I'm not much into the testing literature, so I do not fully understand "interaction based testing."
From what you are describing in other post it's exactly what you need.
Look specifically on mock_object.hpp - facility that supposed to help create these mock/proxy objects.
[sorry for intruding] Judging from the earlier description, I'd guess Jody meant "real" proxy objects (something marshalling function calls across process/machine boundaries). Of course, when testing code that uses these object/interfaces, stubs would be the thing to use (or perhaps mocks, which I'm personally not too found of). If I'm all wrong about this, sorry. Anyway, you caught my attention. I checked the mock_object.hpp header and also found a couple of usage examples under the 'examples' directory. What I was missing though, was examples of setting up / checking the expectations - did I just miss something or aren't they there (yet)? Any chance of having this functionality documented for 1.34? // Johan
