Make the current scope available for stubbing everywhere

[DavidS]

From the discussion in #108: it is necessary to have access to the compiling scope in all example groups, as in d3f737e

Indeed. I'd like to be able to express a spec along the lines of:

        it 'should be deprecated' do
          scope.expects(:warning).with('... is deprecated.')
          ...
        end

Want to test for certain situations where it leads to warnings instead of failures.

@DavidS any progress on this by any chance? :-)

This is - sadly - still a side^3 project for me.

Any chance of this getting addressed anytime soon?
I ran into multiple cases where this would have been useful.

@smu-ggl my comment from last year still applies. Sadly. The most I can currently invest is reviewing code.

@rodjek looks like this was briefly added to a milestone, but then removed. Any update on this?

Resurrecting the thread!

Here's how I'm doing it currently:

let(:pre_condition) do
  # Mask `warning` for testing
  <<~PRE_CONDITION
  function warning($message) { notify { 'warning_test': message => $message } }
  PRE_CONDITION
end

it { is_expected.to create_notify('warning_test').with_message(/<whatever>/) }
