Type or namespace name Mock<> could not be found Entity Framework 6

Question

I am trying to mock my DbContext for writing my unit tests.

I saw a tutorial, and tried to do it like the following:

[TestMethod]
public void MyFirstTest()
{
    var mockSet = new Mock<DbSet<VMStored>>();
}

But I am getting the following error:

Type or namespace name Mock<> could not be found

I am using EF 6. I know this is something simple but I didn't find any answer online regarding this issue.

I don't know what assembly if needed I need to add or what package to install.

I did everything they said in the MSDN tutorial, including update my code in the .Context.tt file of the following function:

public string DbSet(EntitySet entitySet)
{
    return string.Format(
        CultureInfo.InvariantCulture,
        "{0} virtual DbSet<{1}> {2} {{ get; set; }}",
        Accessibility.ForReadOnlyProperty(entitySet),
        _typeMapper.GetTypeName(entitySet.ElementType),
        _code.Escape(entitySet));
}

Any ideas what I need to do?

Go to the Nuget Package Manager (right click project or solution in Solution Manager) and search for Moq. You're just missing the libraries.
