[mocha-developer] If I stub do I have to mock as well?

Hi, I'm new to mocha and stubba but eager to learn. I have a rails
functional test in which I would like to stub an instance method of
particular class to always return true. I tried the following:
def test_post_checkout
Order.any_instance.stubs(:successful?).returns(true)
post :checkout
assert_response :redirect
assert_equal "Checkout was successful.", flash[:notice]
end
I expected that the stub would help my test pass but instead it failed
and the failure included the following:
test/functional/store_controller_test.rb:103:in `test_post_checkout']:
#<Mocha::Mock: 28754118>.successful?() - expected calls: 0, actual calls: 1
I was confused by this and it seemed to indicate that I need to tell
Order that a call to #successful? was expected. Do I have to create a
mock in order to stub? How do I do this?
Thanks,
