参见下面使用c#和Moq框架的mock和存根的例子。Moq对于存根没有特殊的关键字，但是您也可以使用Mock对象来创建存根。

        }

        public string GetNameWithPrefix(int id)
        {
            string name = string.Empty;
            if (id > 0)
            {
                name = this._entityRepository.GetName(id);
            }
            return "Mr. " + name;
        }
    }
    public interface IEntityRepository
    {
        string GetName(int id);
    }
    public class EntityRepository:IEntityRepository
    {
        public string GetName(int id)
        {
            // Code to connect to DB and get name based on Id
            return "NameFromDb";
        }
    }

存根不会让你考试不及格，mock可以。

加上有用的答案，其中最强大的一点使用模拟比潜艇

如果合作者(主代码所依赖的合作者)不在我们的控制之下(例如来自第三方库)， 在这种情况下，stub比mock更难编写。

在我的回答中，我使用了python示例来说明差异。

Stub - Stubbing is a software development technique used to implement methods of classes early in the development life-cycle. They are used commonly as placeholders for implementation of a known interface, where the interface is finalized or known but the implementation is not yet known or finalized. You begin with stubs, which simply means that you only write the definition of a function down and leave the actual code for later. The advantage is that you won't forget methods and you can continue to think about your design while seeing it in code. You can also have your stub return a static response so that the response can be used by other parts of your code immediately. Stub objects provide a valid response, but it's static no matter what input you pass in, you'll always get the same response:

class Foo(object):
    def bar1(self):
        pass

    def bar2(self):
        #or ...
        raise NotImplementedError

    def bar3(self):
        #or return dummy data
        return "Dummy Data"

模拟对象用于模拟测试用例，它们验证在这些对象上调用了某些方法。模拟对象是以可控的方式模拟真实对象行为的模拟对象。您通常创建一个模拟对象来测试其他对象的行为。mock让我们模拟对于单元测试来说不可用或太笨重的资源。

mymodule.py:

import os
import os.path

def rm(filename):
    if os.path.isfile(filename):
        os.remove(filename)

test.py:

from mymodule import rm
import mock
import unittest

class RmTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
    @mock.patch('mymodule.os')
    def test_rm(self, mock_os):
        rm("any path")
        # test that rm called os.remove with the right parameters
        mock_os.remove.assert_called_with("any path")

if __name__ == '__main__':
    unittest.main()

这是一个非常基本的示例，它只运行rm并断言调用它的参数。您可以对对象使用mock，而不仅仅是这里所示的函数，您还可以返回一个值，这样模拟对象就可以用来替换存根进行测试。

更多关于unittest的信息。模拟，注意python 2。X mock不包含在unittest中，但它是一个可下载的模块，可以通过PIP (PIP install mock)下载。

我还读过Roy Osherove写的《单元测试的艺术》，我认为如果有一本类似的书是用Python和Python示例编写的，那就太棒了。如果有人知道这样的书，请分享。欢呼:)

我喜欢Roy Osherove的解释。

创建的每个类或对象都是Fake。如果您验证它是一个Mock 反对它的呼声。否则就是存根。

上面有很多有效的答案，但我认为值得一提的是这个表格鲍勃叔叔: https://8thlight.com/blog/uncle-bob/2014/05/14/TheLittleMocker.html

最好的例子解释!
