As for #3, I'm
pretty sure that Ruby's method_missing allows one to raise an
exception easily.  Not sure what a Javascript mocking framework would
do in this case.

I'm not sure that I buy that this feature is very important.  Both
Javascript and Ruby blow up when you call a method that doesn't exist on
it anyway.  What's the difference between "Received unexpected message
'foo'" and "NoMethodError 'foo'"?

Unless I'm mistaken, it's only when *another* method gets called on a missing method that an error gets raised:

>>> o = {};
Object
>>> o.foo
>>> o.foo === undefined
true
>>> o.foo.bar
TypeError: o.foo is undefined

Also, I found this last night:

http://developer.mozilla.org/En/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Reference:Global_Objects:Object:_noSuchMethod .

BTW, Pat - Have you still been working on integrating test spy into rspec?
