+# jndn-mock
+
+This project consists of tools for testing NDN applications without network IO. It relies on the [NDN Protocol](https://named-data.net) and its associated [client library](https://github.com/named-data/jndn).
+
+## Install
+With Maven, add the following to your POM:
+```
+<dependency>
+ <groupId>com.intel.jndn.mock</groupId>
+ <artifactId>jndn-mock</artifactId>
+ <version>RELEASE</version> <!-- or a specific version -->
+</dependency>
+```
+
+## Use
+`MockFace` and `MockTransport` are test tools that can be passed to applications instead of the typical `Face` and `Transport`. For example:
+```
+MockTransport transport = new MockTransport();
+MockFace face = new MockFace(transport, null);
+
+application.doSomethingOn(face);
+assertEquals(0, transport.getSentDataPackets().size());
+assertEquals(1, transport.getSentInterestPackets().size());
+```
