I would suggest not worrying about it and learning to use stubs as part of your testing strategy.
* Stub things in unit tests that you own, so that you control when the public API is changing. * Expose small public API's on your models. * Write integration tests that use the real objects, they will tell you if you make a mistake when updating the stubs in your unit tests. Set your CI tasks up to run the unit tests first, followed by the slower integration tests. Fast feedback, with a slower suite run afterwards to ensure all of the pieces still play nicely with each other.
