Hello David!
This is a functional test on a legacy app and I do need to stub the method
"test" on that object. The code that I'm testing is not easily testable.
And I am actually trying to stub a a class method. This is what I came up
with as a temporary working solution:
class CnuConfig
class_eval <<-EORUBY, __FILE__, __LINE__ + 1
def self.test
{"settings": "blah"}
end
EORUBY
end
