存根不会让你考试不及格，mock可以。

下面是对每一个的描述，然后是真实世界的样本。

Dummy - just bogus values to satisfy the API. Example: If you're testing a method of a class which requires many mandatory parameters in a constructor which have no effect on your test, then you may create dummy objects for the purpose of creating new instances of a class. Fake - create a test implementation of a class which may have a dependency on some external infrastructure. (It's good practice that your unit test does NOT actually interact with external infrastructure.) Example: Create fake implementation for accessing a database, replace it with in-memory collection. Stub - override methods to return hard-coded values, also referred to as state-based. Example: Your test class depends on a method Calculate() taking 5 minutes to complete. Rather than wait for 5 minutes you can replace its real implementation with stub that returns hard-coded values; taking only a small fraction of the time. Mock - very similar to Stub but interaction-based rather than state-based. This means you don't expect from Mock to return some value, but to assume that specific order of method calls are made. Example: You're testing a user registration class. After calling Save, it should call SendConfirmationEmail.

存根和Mock实际上是Mock的子类型，两者都交换了实际实现和测试实现，但出于不同的、特定的原因。

存根是向SUT返回值的测试double。

模拟是测试用于验证SUT正确调用依赖项的双重测试。

而且，mock通常是存根

Stub

我相信最大的区别是您已经编写了带有预定行为的存根。所以你会有一个实现依赖的类(很可能是抽象类或接口)，你是为了测试目的而伪造的，方法只是用设置的响应来存根。它们不会做任何花哨的事情，而且您应该已经在测试之外为它编写了存根代码。

Mock

模拟是测试的一部分，你必须根据你的期望来设置。mock并不是预先设定好的，所以您可以在测试中使用它。模拟在某种程度上是在运行时确定的，因为设置期望的代码必须在它们执行任何操作之前运行。

mock和stub的区别

使用模拟编写的测试通常遵循初始化->设置期望->练习->验证模式进行测试。而预先编写的存根将遵循初始化->练习->验证。

mock和stub之间的相似性

这两种方法的目的都是为了消除对类或函数的所有依赖项的测试，从而使您的测试在试图证明的内容方面更加集中和简单。

测试双打:

Fake: Fakes are objects that have working implementations, but not the same as production one. Such as: in-memory implementation of Data Access Object or Repository. Stub: Stub is an object that holds predefined data and uses it to answer calls during tests. Such as: an object that needs to grab some data from the database to respond to a method call. Mocks: Mocks are objects that register calls they receive. In test assertion, we can verify on Mocks that all expected actions were performed. Such as: a functionality that calls e-mail sending service. for more just check this.

关于这个问题，我认为Roy Osherove在他的书《单元测试的艺术》(85页)中给出了最简单、最清晰的答案。

判断我们正在处理存根的最简单方法是注意到存根永远不会通过测试。测试使用的断言总是反对的 被测试的班级。 另一方面，测试将使用一个模拟对象来验证 测试是否失败。[…] 同样，模拟对象是我们用来检查测试是否失败的对象。

Stub和mock都是假的。

如果您对假的进行断言，这意味着您将假的用作mock，如果您仅使用假的运行测试而没有对其进行断言，那么您将假的用作存根。
