I don't get it. Why should one want the lower layers of the application to create the instances? IMO this makes testing with mocking frameworks more difficult, because you can't inject a already initialised mockObject. Instead you tell the class under test to create a new instance of a mocked class you which have to be coded first. Does this approach take away the chance of using a mocking framework like NMock or Rhino.Mocks?
