Mock Interfaces for Unit Testing
================================

Isaac Lab provides mock implementations of sensor, asset, and PhysX view classes
for unit testing without requiring Isaac Sim or GPU simulation.

Overview
--------

Two levels of mock interfaces are available:

1. **High-level mocks** (``isaaclab.test.mock_interfaces``) - Mock sensors and assets
2. **Low-level PhysX mocks** (``isaaclab_physx.test.mock_interfaces``) - Mock PhysX TensorAPI views

High-Level Mock Interfaces
--------------------------

Located in ``isaaclab.test.mock_interfaces``, these mock the public API of sensor
and asset base classes.

     - Single rigid body
   * - ``MockRigidObjectCollection``
     - ``BaseRigidObjectCollection``
     - Collection of rigid bodies

Quick Start
~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: python

   import torch
   from isaaclab.test.mock_interfaces import MockArticulation, MockContactSensor

   # Create a mock quadruped robot
   robot = MockArticulation(
       num_instances=4,
       num_joints=12,
       num_bodies=13,
       joint_names=[f"joint_{i}" for i in range(12)],
       device="cpu"
   )

   # Set joint states
   robot.data.set_mock_data(
       joint_pos=torch.zeros(4, 12),
       joint_vel=torch.randn(4, 12) * 0.1
   )

   # Access data like the real asset
   positions = robot.data.joint_pos  # Shape: (4, 12)

   # Create a mock contact sensor
   sensor = MockContactSensor(num_instances=4, num_bodies=4, device="cpu")
   sensor.data.set_net_forces_w(torch.randn(4, 4, 3))

Factory Functions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pre-configured factories for common use cases:

.. code-block:: python

   from isaaclab.test.mock_interfaces import (
       create_mock_quadruped,
       create_mock_humanoid,
       create_mock_foot_contact_sensor,
   )

   # Pre-configured quadruped (12 joints, 13 bodies)
   robot = create_mock_quadruped(num_instances=4)

   # Pre-configured humanoid (21 joints, 22 bodies)
   humanoid = create_mock_humanoid(num_instances=2)

   # Foot contact sensor for quadruped
   foot_contact = create_mock_foot_contact_sensor(num_instances=4, num_feet=4)

Patching Utilities
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Use context managers or decorators to inject mocks into tests:

**Context Managers:**

.. code-block:: python

   from isaaclab.test.mock_interfaces.utils import patch_articulation, patch_sensor

   with patch_articulation("my_module.Articulation", num_joints=12) as MockRobot:
       robot = my_function_that_creates_robot()
       robot.data.set_joint_pos(torch.zeros(1, 12))

   with patch_sensor("my_module.ContactSensor", "contact", num_bodies=4):
       sensor = my_function_that_creates_sensor()

**Decorators:**

.. code-block:: python

   from isaaclab.test.mock_interfaces.utils import mock_articulation, mock_sensor

   @mock_articulation(num_joints=12, num_bodies=13)
   def test_observation_function(mock_robot):
       mock_robot.data.set_joint_pos(torch.zeros(1, 12))
       obs = compute_observation(mock_robot)
       assert obs.shape == (1, 24)

   @mock_sensor("contact", num_instances=4, num_bodies=4)
   def test_contact_reward(mock_contact):
       mock_contact.data.set_net_forces_w(torch.randn(4, 4, 3))
       reward = compute_contact_reward(mock_contact)

Low-Level PhysX Mock Interfaces
-------------------------------

views used internally by assets and sensors.

   )

   transforms = view.get_transforms()  # Shape: (4, 7)

   # Set mock data
   view.set_mock_transforms(torch.randn(4, 7))

   # Create a mock articulation view
   art_view = MockArticulationView(
       count=4,
       num_dofs=12,
       num_links=13,
       device="cpu"
   )
   positions = art_view.get_dof_positions()  # Shape: (4, 12)

   from isaaclab_physx.test.mock_interfaces import (
       create_mock_rigid_body_view,
       create_mock_articulation_view,
       create_mock_quadruped_view,
       create_mock_rigid_contact_view,
   )

   view = create_mock_quadruped_view(count=4)

       view = create_rigid_body()

   # Decorator

   def test_my_function(mock_view):

Design Patterns
---------------

All mock interfaces follow these patterns:

1. **Lazy Initialization** - Tensors created on first access with correct shapes
2. **Device Transfer** - All setters call ``.to(device)``
3. **Identity Quaternion Defaults** - Quaternions default to identity
4. **Clone on Getters** - Return ``.clone()`` to prevent mutation
5. **No-op Actions** - Simulation operations (reset, update, write_to_sim) do nothing
6. **Mock Setters** - Direct ``set_mock_*`` methods for test setup

Example: Testing an Observation Function
----------------------------------------

.. code-block:: python

   import pytest
   import torch
   from isaaclab.test.mock_interfaces import MockArticulation

   @pytest.fixture
   def robot():
       return MockArticulation(
           num_instances=4,
           num_joints=12,
           num_bodies=13,
           device="cpu"
       )

   def test_joint_observation(robot):
       # Setup
       joint_pos = torch.randn(4, 12)
       robot.data.set_joint_pos(joint_pos)

       # Test your observation function
       obs = compute_joint_observation(robot)

       # Verify
       assert obs.shape == (4, 24)  # pos + vel
       assert torch.allclose(obs[:, :12], joint_pos)

   def test_body_observation(robot):
       # Setup
       body_poses = torch.randn(4, 13, 7)
       robot.data.set_body_link_pose_w(body_poses)

       # Test
       obs = compute_body_observation(robot)
       assert obs.shape == (4, 13, 7)
