MSSpec

What is it?

MSSpec is a Kiwi Spec with support to inject mocks using Objection. Using mocks in your specs is now as easy as this:

MSSPEC_BEGIN(MSCarSpec)

MSMockClass(MSEngine);

__block MSCar *car;
__block MSEngine *engine;

beforeEach(^{
	// this instance will be created using the default injector
	car = MSInjectionCreateObject(MSCar);
	
	// this will be the same mock injected to car
	engine = MSInjectionCreateObject(MSEngine);
});

it(@"has a configured engine", ^{
	NSString *name = @"name";
	[engine stub:@selector(name) andReturn:name];

	[[car.engine.name should] equal:name];
});

MSSPEC_END

Using Objection is much easier

<MSSpec/MSInjection.h> also includes a series of macros to make working with Objection much easier:

MSInjectionRequireProperties: defines a list of properties to be injected into the class. Example: MSInjectionRequireProperties(car, engine)
MSInjectionDesignatedInitializer: defines the designated initializer for the class (default is init).
MSInjectionCreateObject: instantiates an object of the specified class and injects it all its dependencies. This object is initialized with init: unless MSInjectionDesignatedInitializer has been used.
MSInjectionInjectDependencies: if the object has declared its dependencies using MSInjectionRequireProperties, but was allocated outside of the injector's life cycle, use this to immediately inject dependencies.

Dependencies can then be injected in one of two ways:

Instantiate the object using MSInjectionCreateObject(ClassName).
Calling MSInjectionInjectDependencies() somewhere in the initialization.

Installation:

Using CocoaPods:

target :App do
	pod 'MSSpec' # this gives you access to the MSInjection.h macros in your app.

	target :Tests do
		pod 'MSSpec/Tests' # MSSPEC macros for your tests.
	end
end

You don't need to add Objection or Kiwi.

Finally:

#import <MSSpec/MSInjection.h> in your main target's pch file.
And #import <MSSpec/MSSpec.h> in your test's target pch file.
