The implement virtual methods feature of Visual Assist is great time saver. I wonder if it would be possible to also have a "Mock Virtual Methods" feature.
We use Google Test/ Google Mocks as our unit testing framework. Unfortunately it can be somewhat tedious to hand write MOCK_METHODxxx for all members of the class.
There are a few other C++ mocking frameworks so perhaps the user could choose which mocking framework they are using either in the options or when they generate the methods.

Hmmm. Interesting idea. I haven't used this framework myself, but luckily there is a page called Google C++ Mocking Framework for Dummies  so I was able to get up to speed easily.
I think something like a snippet for each line of the generated methods could be used here.
For example you could use something like the below snippet to generate MOCK_METHOD2(GoTo, void(int x, int y));
MOCK_METHOD$ArgCount$($SymbolName$, $SymbolType$($MethodArgs$));
The sample line is came from here:
https://code.google.com/p/googlemock/wiki/ForDummies#Writing_the_Mock_Class
And the snippet variable names based on this document:
http://docs.wholetomato.com/default.asp?W262
As you said you would want to select which snippets to use, and we could provide googlemock as a sample.
I have opened a feature request for this idea:
case=90460
Later, we could even create more snippets for other frameworks to have a better out-of-box experience, if we see demand for it. |
