Mock: Adhoc guessing of what methods called on a dependency, but sometimes even between classes in the same module, might return. Guess repeated over and over as new tests are added, sometimes tens of times or even more. For example, https://site.mockito.org/#how, "when(mockedList.get(0)).thenReturn("first"); System.out.println(mockedList.get(0)); // prints "first""
Fake: A replacement module that behaves like a production module, but with certain simplifications, for example in-process vs. using rpcs, or simply cleaning up the filesystem after usage. For example, https://github.com/tk0miya/testing.postgresql. "automatically setups a postgresql instance in a temporary directory, and destroys it after testing".
