I have two components A and B. I am testing component B and I want to
mock component A which component B uses. How do I go about that?

Use a mocking framework to help you, check out MockBox, I've been using it recently and it's pretty solid.

Sorry to veer off on a tangent but every time I see Robert post I feel
like a relative is posting our last names are so similar. That is
all, now back to your regularly scheduled testing.

I tried using MightyMock but the mock object never gets called.

I can post a bunch of code showing what I did. My situation is quite
complex since one of the components actually returns a component from
one of the method calls via calling a stored procedure.

Wow just talking through my problem allowed me to solve my own issue.
Since my component that I was mocking was returning a component I had
to match the return type with the mock object returns(). Thanks for
everyone's time!

Haha I agree Bill, it always throws me off when I see you posting :-)
With regards to MockBox I have a post on Forrst which gives a simple insight into how to use it, feel free to take a look.
