I'm trying to mock a class method with rspec:
lib/db.rb
class Db def self.list(options) Db::Payload.list(options) end end
lib/db/payload.rb
class Db::Payload def self.list(options={}) end end
In my spec, I'm trying to setup the expectation Db::Payload.list will be called when I call Db.list:
describe Db do before(:each) do @options = {} Db::Payload.should_receive(:list).with(@options) end it 'should build the LIST payload' do Db.list(@options) end end
The problem is that I am always receiving the following error:
undefined method `should_receive' for Db::Payload:Class
Any help understanding this error would be most appreciated :-)
