How to mock to twitter api using Ruby on Rails?

Question

I'm developing a application that uses the twitter API. I'm currently using rspec with mocha, but I found it to be cumbersome and I cannot reuse the mocking that I create for a give method. Is there a way that you can have for a give call, return something, and for another call return something else? Or it needs to be by each method?

Answer 1

Try to use webmock or fake mock.

It allows you to stub HTTP requests and setting expectations on HTTP requests in Ruby.

Answer 2

WHat exactly is this "mocking" you guys are talking about?
