Really? I love DI, but I would turn and run from a testing environment which thought we "should" use DI for everything outside the object-in-test. That would be a maintenance nightmare. I would be running from fear of being crushed under a mountain of heavy source code, and bits don't even weigh very much! Fortunately, I wouldn't have to run very fast, because that code would be moving at a glaciers pace. Just think of how many String, List, Hash, and Sort mocks you would have! ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
