About 8 minutes into his PHPNW12 Talk The State of PHPUnit, Volker Dusch mentioned that there is a lot of stuff on StackOverflow that answer all the common questions. He also states that he would be really happy if someone would take the time to compile them into a FAQ.
So I decided to build one: https://faq.exchange/?phpunit-mocks/
After a first version was online, it seemed like a neat plan to implement things in a more generic way so other topics could also be supported. This has been achieved by using the URL as a search-term.
The FAQ pulls the Questions and answers straight from the StackOverflow API: https://api.stackexchange.com/docs/advanced-search#order=desc&sort=votes&q=phpunit%20mocks&site=stackoverflow&filter=!SC_g(LT_pJnL2lxfET--P_)p5zPQ212ioRM-*552DRcbu*sEtpTSNJ)dt(y8IgtT.
