01/10/2018, 8:32 AMNaming things in this article is a bit incorrect and might lead to confusion. To be precise Stubs are called Mocks.
this articles serves as a good reference how to name test doubles

01/10/2018, 8:35 AMto me this whole article is about stubbing but not mocking

01/10/2018, 8:36 AMSo how to fix it? Remove mocking out of it?
:-)
We should have sent it to you first

01/10/2018, 8:38 AMReplace mocking with stubbing
You will probably describe mocking in the next article
Mocking = verifying interactions with a dependency
Stubbing = having control over responses from the dependency
Second article that I have pasted describes it very well in detalis

01/10/2018, 8:49 AMYes Ive read this second as well before publishing. Although you right about conceptual things, I dont see possiblity to overcome this easily now
May be one thing I am able to do I can add verify constructs to source snippet and explain it
If you are interested like why I did not put one more term after reading this defintions I think just to simplify things.
Anyway only in the evening Ill be able to get to computer and do changes
And probably Ill be drunk :-)
So tomorrow

01/10/2018, 9:02 AMIn the article "Mocking" wasn't defined or even used anywhere expect in the introduction. But we want to make things as clear as possible so for now I (as an editor of Kotlin Academy) will add few words of clarification in the beginning.
