You shouldn't necessarily use HiveMind at all during unit testing. How would you propose that HiveMind inject a mock object? Mock objects have to be trained. You'd have to write a special ServiceImplementationFactory to create the mock object and train it just so HiveMind could inject it. That's overkill, IMHO. I'd just use the Creator to create your pages.
