Disable Geocode in Test environment

Question

In my Ruby on Rails application I'm using Geocoder. It works fine, but my tests are ten times slower! I found some solution but in my opinion they are not very clear? Is there any way to disable Geocoder on test environment?

According to the gem documentation on Github, you can use a test lookup in your tests, to avoid doing actual requests:

Geocoder.configure(:lookup => :test)

Geocoder::Lookup::Test.add_stub(
  "New York, NY", [
    {
      'latitude'     => 40.7143528,
      'longitude'    => -74.0059731,
      'address'      => 'New York, NY, USA',
      'state'        => 'New York',
      'state_code'   => 'NY',
      'country'      => 'United States',
      'country_code' => 'US'
    }
  ]
)
