Stubbing global function

[Roy Kolak]

I'm trying to stub a global function (yeah... third party crap).
Here's my approach

it 'should call multiTrack'
stub(window, 'dcsMultiTrack')

// Direct call, just for testing...
dcsMultiTrack()

expect(window).to(receive, 'dcsMultiTrack');
end

This is the result:
"expected [object DOMWindow].dcsMultiTrack() to be called once, but
was not called"

Can't seem to track why this error is the outcome. Anyone encounter
this behavior before?

Have you tried document rather than window?

Yes I have. The failure is the same.

I was missing something.

I was calling the method before setting up the should.receive. At
first it
seemed like I would call the method first then assert that it was
called,
but then I realized the problem in that… how would jspec know which
method
to record the calls on if I didn't tell it before the method was
called.

Thanks guys
