Hello Remi,

I've had partial success by making some changes on rspec-puppet, targeting
a function similar to the params_lookup one on puppi module from example42.
You can have a look at branches feature/scoped_resources
<https://github.com/javiplx/rspec-puppet/tree/feature/scoped_resources> &
feature/parent_module_name
<https://github.com/javiplx/rspec-puppet/tree/feature/parent_module_name> from
my fork (https://github.com/javiplx/rspec-puppet).
