He uses Gerard Meszaros' word for this classification of object: <a href="http://martinfowler.com/bliki/TestDouble.html">Test Double</a>. If you've ever been in a discussion about unit tests, you know how easily misunderstandings can result from throwing around terms like "mock", "dummy, or "stub". It's a good idea to have a consistent definition for these things.</p>
