OCMStub an instance mthod not work as expected about ocmock HOT 4 CLOSED

It's not a bug. You have a basic misunderstanding of what the code is doing. OCMClassMock does not return a class level mock, it's returning an "mock" instance of the class. Please follow through with posting to stack overflow so that others can easily find the answer if they have similar questions.

UPDATE:

when I try a simplified version to test whether the mock is working:

- (void)testMock {
    id policyMock = OCMClassMock([PrivacyPolicy class]);
    OCMExpect([policyMock hasPermissionFor:OCMOCK_ANY scene:OCMOCK_ANY]).andReturn(YES);
    
    PrivacyConfig *config = [PrivacyConfig currentConfig];
    PrivacyPolicy *policy = [config getPolicyWithPermission:TestPermissionKey];
    
    BOOL val = [policy hasPermissionFor:KSPKTestPermissionKey scene:@"test"];
    XCTAssertTrue(val);
    OCMVerify([policyMock hasPermissionFor:OCMOCK_ANY scene:OCMOCK_ANY]);  // fail
}

When I tried to explicitly call hasPermissionFor:scene: it seems no matter with or without .andForwardToRealObject().andReturn(YES) the XCTAssertTrue and OCMVerify never pass, indicating the mock is not working at all.

I'm not sure if this is a limitation, or bug? because it seems PrivacyPolicy is a very simple class and nothing special.

This looks like a problem with using OCMock. What is the object returned by getPolicyWithPermission:? Assuming that this is not the mock object, how would the mock notice that a method is called on that object?

Please do not ask follow-up questions here. Questions relating to the use of OCMock should be asked on StackOverflow. Thank you.

@erikdoe I do hesitated where to ask before opening this thread, but eventually I thought I have read the doc and thinking it's worthy of confirming whether it's a bug or not.

Because in the doc

id mock = OCMClassMock([SomeClass class]);
OCMStub([mock someMethod]).andReturn(myValue);

/* run code under test */

OCMVerify([mock someMethod]);

it seems I can hook a instance method on a Class level mock?

getPolicyWithPermission returns a PrivacyPolicy instance, which I assume

id policyMock = OCMClassMock([PrivacyPolicy class]);
OCMExpect([policyMock hasPermissionFor:OCMOCK_ANY scene:OCMOCK_ANY]).andReturn(YES);
   

should work for this returned object? Could you confirm this is not a bug?

e.g. how could I mock a instance method for all instance for a specific class? Thanks.
