Method stub

Encyclopedia : M : ME : MET : Method stub

A method stub or simply stub in software development is a piece of code used to stand in for some other programming functionality. A stub may simulate the behavior of existing code (such as a procedure on a remote machine) or be a temporary substitute for yet-to-be-developed code. Stubs are therefore most useful in distributed computing in addition to general software development and testing.
