Hi Kevin!

So, there are only two unit testing methods -- mock and mox. stubs are
part of the mox-style way of doing things.

My general rules of thumb when doing reviews in Nova are these:

1) For new unit tests, use mock
2) Don't mix mock and mox in a single test method
3) When modifying existing unit tests, unless rewriting the test method
almost entirely, stick with whatever is used already (mock or mox)

Best,
