Moq feature I am wondering if it is doable in Rhino Mocks too

[Nikola Malovic]

Hi,

is Rhino Mock having anything similar to Moq "children auto default
mocking" (example can be seen on

Thanks,
Nikola

I've never done it as it's considered by some (me included) to be a bit of a smell.

I've chosen not to post it but I was going to blog about how Law of Demeter violations can be seen somewhat easily in test code that leverage mocking, you have to set up a ton of extra "stuff".  People hide that by auto-mocking rather than taking care of the issue.
