Rhino Mock 3.6 Repository Expected #0, Actual#1

Question

I'm using Rhino Mock 3.6 Repository and Nhibernate. But I'm getting ExpectationViolationException Expected#0, Actual #1. I've spent two days on it. I don't know what i'm doing wrong. Here is my code. I'm getting error on mockRepository.Save(user) line.

        var username = "abcdef";
        var mocks = new MockRepository();
        var validationResults = new ValidationResults();
        IDataQuery query = mocks.StrictMock<IDataQuery>();
        UserRepository mockRepository = mocks.StrictMock<UserRepository>(query);
        var user = mocks.StrictMock<User>();

        user.FirstName = "javed";
        user.LastName = "ahmad";
        user.UserName = "abc";
        user.Password = "password";
        user.Email = "[email protected]";
        user.IsActive = true;
        user.CreatedBy = 1000000;
        user.CreatedDate = DateTime.Today;
        user.ModifiedBy = 1000000;
        user.ModifiedDate = DateTime.Today;

        Expect.Call(user.Validate()).Return(validationResults);
        mocks.ReplayAll();

        mockRepository.Save(user);

Thanks in Advance.

Thanks Imran

Answer 1

You're using a StrickMock which means the only calls to be considered valid are the calls you set Expectations for. Since you didn't set an Expectation that Save would be called, you're getting an error.

Answer 2

Normally this means RhinoMock expects you to call user.Validate() once, but you call the method twice. You can either check that you call the method only once or change

Expect.Call(user.Validate()).Return(validationResults);

to

Expect.Call(user.Validate()).Return(validationResults).Repeat.Twice();
