It's been a while since I jumped into this code and it's late, forgive me if I say something naive inline.

I believe, however the subject catalog/function that is tested in each example group (unless you explicitly create a subject yourself) should mask that value with what ever is passed into RSpec.configure (like the modulepath setting in module_spec_helper) for its compilation/initialization[3][4]. - Justin 1. https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs_spec_helper/blob/master/lib/puppetlabs_spec_helper/puppet_spec_helper.rb#L96-L97 2. https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/blob/master/lib/puppet/test/test_helper.rb#L142-L156 3. https://github.com/rodjek/rspec-puppet/blob/master/lib/rspec-puppet/example/function_example_group.rb#L10 4. https://github.com/rodjek/rspec-puppet/blob/master/lib/rspec-puppet/support.rb#L80-L97 > > You can do what Wolf suggested.
