Is there a way of stubbing member variables?

[Xiphereal]

Hi!

I was wondering if it is possible to stub member variables:

class_name PlayerController extends Reference

var player_name : String

func _init():
    self.player_name = ""

extends GutTest

func test_member_variable_stub():
    var player_controller_double = double(PlayerController).new()

    var stubbed_player_name = "StubbedPlayerName"
    stub(player_controller_double, "player_name").to_return(stubbed_player_name)

    assert_eq(player_controller_double.player_name, stubbed_player_name)

since I'm forced to change PlayerController to be:

class_name PlayerController extends Reference

var _player_name : String

func _init():
	self._player_name = ""

func request_play():
	pass

func get_player_name(): -> String
	return self._player_name

and stub get_player_name.

Thanks in advance! Love your work!

You cannot stub member variables, but they exist in the double so you can set it.

Oh god, how could I not see it? :')

I think this should be a nice addition to the stubs documentation, in case anyone in the future has my same doubt.

Thanks for the quick response!

There was a blurb about this on the doubles wiki page but it wasn't where you would expect it to be. I moved it up to the top.
