It would be good to be able to set the return value to be the same as
the return value of the block. I am trying to test opening a file in a
block and reading from it. It would be nice to use code like this:
object.stubs(:open).with("/path/to/file", "r").yields(
stub(:read => "The file contents")
).returns(from_block)
Which would make open() take the return value of the block. So this app
code would work:
def my_method
open("/path/to/file", "r") { |file| file.read }
end
and this wouldn't work (because the return value of the block is not the
contents of the file):
def my_method
open("/path/to/file", "r") do |file|
file.read
puts "Stolid in my guilt, clutching it like a girl with a stuffed
bunny, I failed to follow."
end
end
