I need to develop a mockup server, so i can do performance testing
without needing the real server. I am only testing the client or the
Rails application so i do not need to use real server.

I need to override couple of Net::HTTP methods. Can you suggest which
framework is better to start with to create mockup objects which would
respond to the requests.

Thanks in advance
