You are in a bit of a no mans land when it comes to mocking then. I would
consider breaking up that initializer so that the decision can be tested
seperately.

Alternatively you might be able to use 'any_instance':

DataMatrix.any_instance.stubs(:form_matrix)
DataMatrix.any_instance.expects(:get_data_from_yaml).with(String,
'whatever')
DataMatrix.new String, 'whatever'

You will need a lot of tests, to cover that decision process. I would be
tempted to break up that initializer or refactor it somehow.
