I see a couple options.
StorageProxy has this constant:
private static final boolean OPTIMIZE_LOCAL_REQUESTS = true; //
set to false to test messagingservice path on single node
So, you could make it an instance variable and create a SP object with
it set to false for tests.
Or, you could do a test using ccm for multinode control, as in the
long_read.sh test on
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3303.
