Third sample code block

OBSERVATION: The preceding text and name of the example test method, TestIfExecuteWorks(), indicate that it should test the Task.Execute() method, but the Task.Execute() method is not invoked in the body of the example. Hence, the example does not really illustrate the utility or necessity of providing fake objects because the fake object is used only in the construction of the Task object where a null reference would serve equally well. No error would actually occur in the example as written even if the fake object had not been provided.

RECOMMENDATION: Include a call to Execute() in the body of the example to illustrate the need for and utility of the fake object.
