Function for stubbing out the Rails.env calls
Raw
stub_env.rb
def stub_env(new_env, &block)
original_env = Rails.env
Rails.instance_variable_set("@_env", ActiveSupport::StringInquirer.new(new_env))
block.call
ensure
Rails.instance_variable_set("@_env", ActiveSupport::StringInquirer.new(original_env))
end

Wouldnt it also be better to have an ensure around the 'block.call'?

Whats wrong with Rails.env= ? It seems cleaner than Rails.instance_variable_set("@_env"). And you get the ActiveSupport::StringInquirer wrapper for free :P
