This version makes it possible to replace factories at runtime. Factory replacement is a handy feature when unit testing components in the container. If a component A uses some collaborator B, you can replace the B factory with a mock object factory producing a mock implementation of B. Then you can test that A uses B correctly. http://butterfly.jenkov.com/4 2008.4.15 http://butterfly.jenkov.com Butterfly Testing Tools is the re-release of the stub, mock and proxy testing tools for Java unit testing, previously available under the name "Testimonial". The Butterfly Testing Tools will over time be tuned to fit nicely with Butterfly Container, for mock testing of components in the container. http://butterfly.jenkov.com/4 2008.19.3 http://butterfly.jenkov.com Butterfly Container 2.0.0 is finally out.
