Faking web requests in Rails test without Fakeweb

Question

I'm using the Handsoap gem with Httpclient gem as the driver in a Rails app.

How can I prevent network calls from Handsaop/Httpclient gems in test cases?

FakeWeb doesn't support Httpclient.

Answer 1

That's right, FakeWeb currently only supports libraries based on Net::HTTP.

Here's a ticket about adding HttpClient support, which also references a couple older forks that attempt to do it.

Answer 2

You can use WebMock http://github.com/bblimke/webmock. It has support for Httpclient.
