Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Fossil Mock currently lacks comprehensive support for mocking input/output operations, making it difficult to test applications that heavily rely on file, stream, or terminal interactions. I often face challenges when trying to simulate various IO scenarios, such as reading/writing files, handling stdin/stdout, or managing error streams, without affecting the actual environment.
Describe the solution you’d like
I would like Fossil Mock to include robust IO mockup features that allow developers to:
• Mock file operations, such as reading/writing, file creation, deletion, and access permissions, without requiring actual file manipulation.
• Simulate stdin, stdout, and stderr interactions, enabling tests to validate CLI-based input/output handling.
• Mock various error scenarios like file not found, permission denied, or disk full errors.
• Capture and verify terminal output, including formatted text, colors, and special characters.
• Support temporary virtual file systems for testing complex scenarios involving multiple files or directories.
Describe alternatives you’ve considered
• Writing temporary files for testing, but this is not ideal as it depends on the real filesystem and can lead to inconsistent results.
• Using external libraries to mock IO, but these add dependencies and aren’t seamlessly integrated into Fossil Mock.
Additional context
Adding IO mockup features to Fossil Mock would significantly enhance its utility, especially for testing applications that interact with files and terminals. This feature would make it easier to simulate edge cases and ensure robust handling of various IO conditions.
