Of course, you would have to instantiate a manager class or create

purposes of the test.

I think Dennis' second suggestion is the best way to go. Create a fake
manager class to work with and control the actual atom class that you
want to test. Since you aren't testing the manager class itself, it
only needs to be functional enough to for the atom class to get the
details it needs. This might be a little time consuming depending on
the relationship between these objects, but I think being able to test
in isolation will make up for that.

Do a search on Mock Objects, and you'll find lots of details.
