PHP Mockery partial test double not calling method from parent class
2019 Community Moderator ElectionHow do I test a private function or a class that has private methods, fields or inner classes?Reference — What does this symbol mean in PHP?Reference - What does this error mean in PHP?How to partially mock a class using Mockery?Mockery: how does a passive partial mock differ from the default mock?Passing type to SplObserver update methodTesting that one class method calls anothermocking out database queries laravel mockeryMockery: mock publicaly overridden protected methodMockery not able to call my method in testing method
I'm confused why my partial test double is not calling a method correctly. These are my classes:
abstract class Model
public function update(array $attributes)
$this->performUpdate($attributes);
abstract protected function performUpdate(array $attributes);
class Product extends Model
protected function performUpdate(array $attributes)
print_r($attributes);
$mock = Mockery::mock(Product::class)->makePartial();
$mock->update([]); // the 'performUpdate' method never gets called
When the code is run, performUpdate in the Product class is never called. The 'update' method is called as expected, but the real performUpdate method is never called. Instead, it just returns null as if it were not a partial mock. Partial mocks are supposed to defer to the method in the mocked class if no expectation is set up, so why isn't my method getting called?

You have to use the shouldAllowMockingProtectedMethods when creating the mock. This will resolve the issue of you not seeing the output.

That’s not true. The method is not called. Did you try it yourself?

Yes I tried it and it works fine. Since you don't return anything from the functionperformUpdateyou're gettingnullback. If you try the same thing in the console you'll see the text

But I’m not taking about returning anything. Running that code should print an empty array. For me it doesn’t. It does for you? I’ll have to check again.

Sorry about that, I was testing with a class where the method was public. I've edited the answer to show how to use it with protected methods.

But I’m not mocking the protected method. The protected method is an internal call. Since it’s a partial mock, the call to the public update method should call performUpdate internally as normal, but it’s not.
