Phlip,

Ah, but I am not unit testing ... I am writing an acceptance test. I am
QA, not the developer and using cucumber to automate the functional and
acceptance tests.

When unit testing, thou shalt not hit the wire. Mock anything that goes
further than your database.

Put another way, you are not going to refactor LDAP itself, or add
features to it, so mocks should set the boundaries to what you do expect
to refactor.
