what is the best (or any) way of mocking the running of shell
commands?
e.g.
code like the following:
def method
%{ ls }

spec:
it "should list the directory contents"
shell = mock(Object) # %{} lives in Kernel module and its sugar
for `
shell.should_receive(:`).with(:ls)
end
sorry about latter one, thanks in advance

I suggest you put a 'seam' between your code and the call the Kernel.
See Pat's excellent answer to a similar question in this thread:
