In order to write a test for CHEF-269, I need to write a test for Chef::REST.run_request. Unfortunately, this code is prefixed with

     # TODO - Figure out how to test this block - I really have no idea how
     # to do it without actually calling http.request...

So, what is the best way to approach this?

Looks to be a legacy TODO - there are functioning tests for #run_request:

Ahh thanks. So, I actually succeeded in creating a fix, complete with spec and everything (not bad for a Java/Scala guy, eh :-).
