Both stub! and should_receive are intended to run *before* the event
in an example. In both examples, nothing happens after they are run.
The reason that the stub! appears to be running successfully is that
there are no expectations being set anywhere. In essence, that example
doesn't actually test anything
The should_receive example expects a call to find_html *after* the
expectation is set. That never happens, so it fails.
In neither case is there any interaction with the instance of GetHtml
other than to set the stub/expectation on it. What is it that you're
trying to specify?
