This will only rescue StandardError's and descendants of StandardError. Exception is not a descendant of StandardError. I think Mocha raises a StandardError by default, so if you change your stubbing as follows, a default rescue clause will work... DummyMailer.stubs(:deliver_invitation).raises If you are still seeing unexpected behaviour, come over to the Mocha mailing list [1] and we'll see if we can help. -- James. http://blog.floehopper.org [1] http://groups.google.com/group/mocha-developer --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
