Description:
------------
When generating a mock based on an interface, all methods of the interface should be mocked.

Fatal error: Class Mock_ContentStore_f248c6fb contains 1 abstract method and must therefore be declared abstract or implement the remaining method
s (ContentStore::open) in \PEAR\PHPUnit2\Extensions\MockObject\Mock.php(145) : eval()'d code on line 28

I would think this could make testing more less brittle as adding a method to an interface wouldn't break all existing tests using it.

Mocking interfaces is already possible in CVS.
