c# - How do I mock a class without an interface?

Question

I am working on .NET 4.0 using C# in Windows 7.

I want to test the communication between some methods using mock. The only problem is that I want to do it without implementing an interface. Is that possible?

I just read a lot of topics and some tutorials about mock objects, but all of them used to mock interfaces, and not the classes. I tried to use Rhino and Moq frameworks.

Simply mark any method you need to fake as virtual (and not private). Then you will be able to create a fake that can override the method.

If you use new Mock<Type> and you don't have a parameterless constructor then you can pass the parameters as the arguments of the above call as it takes a type of param Objects
