Question

what’s the alias for any_instance in rspec v1.2?

Object.any_instance.stub(:foo).and_return("return_value")

P.S.
Sorry for my English.

Answer 1

The “hack” was to to redefine a class’ method in scope of the test:
e.g. if you want to make a stub like:

SomeClass.any_instance.stub(:foo).and_return(return_value)

—

describe SomeClass
  class SomeClass
    def foo
      return "return value"
    end
  end
  # your test goes here
end
