Last night I had the opportunity to do my 'Taking your tests to the next level with Mocks' session to the TriNug user group. I would first like to say thanks to Doug Wilson and his entire group. They had a great turn out (45ish people) and they asked a ton of great questions. To kick off the...

Last night on twitter Aaron Jenson made the statement 'moq's expect method needs to be renamed' 'setting the expectation is not what you should be doing. you don't *care* if it's called.' I then started a short conversation with Aaron about this. I have been using RhinoMocks...

If you have not checked out the new AutoMocking Container that is part of StructureMap 2.5 I would highly suggest you do, it rocks.

-- UPDATE See text in red below -- Ok, I am in NO way trying to say that this is either Rhino's issue or MSTest. I am simply blogging this with the intent that someone can shed some insight as to what may be going on. Although, since I know that the AAA logic of Rhino works with the EXACT same code...

I finally got around to downloading and playing with the forthcoming release of Rhino Mocks v3.5 (more info here from Ayende). The major changes to this version is that the syntax has been revamped to allow for the new language features in .Net 3.5.  Another big change with this release is that...
