Hi, I don't own the Google::APIClient, it's an external gem.
How can you put a single expectations in every test if you have to mock the 
whole service every time? In my example I have to stub 2 calls only to 
instantiate the Google::APIClient, that's why I think it's a bit too 
verbose...
Don't worry about guidelines, I'm the whole dev group :p

Thanks,
