Came here to say exactly that. The author is advocating for mockist style of unit testing, which is quite terrible for many, many reasons. What you are describing is classic unit testing, and this is the way to go.

Good article and book about it:

'How do you unit test your code without mocks?'

I strongly recommend reading "Unit Testing: Principles, Practices, and Patterns" by Vladimir Khorikov.

That's going to answer your question and will unveil a whole world of testing without mocking (not that it's better or worse than with mocks). It might be a single best book about unit testing in general.
