Equivalent of SimpleTest “partial mocks” in PHPUnit?

Question

I\'m trying to migrate a bunch of tests from SimpleTest to PHPUnit and I was wondering if there is an equivalent for SimpleTest\'s partial mocks.

Update: I can\'t seem t

Answer 1

PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase::getMock is deprecated since phpunit 5.4. We can use setMethods instead.

setMethods(array $methods) can be called on the Mock Builder object to specify the methods that are to be replaced with a configurable test double. The behavior of the other methods is not changed. If you call setMethods(null), then no methods will be replaced.

https://phpunit.de/manual/current/en/test-doubles.html

$observer = $this->getMockBuilder(Observer::class)
                 ->setMethods(['update'])
                 ->getMock();

Note that the above getMock is PHPUnit_Framework_MockObject_MockBuilder::getMock. (phpunit5.6)
