(it is Carlo, not Carlos - I am Italian... Nothing against the
Spaniards and the Portuguese, of course)

I never used Open3 (never needed). But if I type 

ri expects

nothing appears. There must be yet another syntax error, in the sense
that you should have expect, not expects. Indeed, if I type

ri expect

I obtain (among others):

--8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<--
=== Implementation from Mock
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  expect(name, retval, args=[], &blk)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Expect that method name is called, optionally with args or a blk, and
returns
retval.

  @mock.expect(:meaning_of_life, 42)
  @mock.meaning_of_life # => 42

  @mock.expect(:do_something_with, true, [some_obj, true])
  @mock.do_something_with(some_obj, true) # => true

  @mock.expect(:do_something_else, true) do |a1, a2|
    a1 == "buggs" && a2 == :bunny
  end

args is compared to the expected args using case equality (ie, the
'==='
operator), allowing for less specific expectations.

  @mock.expect(:uses_any_string, true, [String])
  @mock.uses_any_string("foo") # => true
  @mock.verify  # => true

  @mock.expect(:uses_one_string, true, ["foo"]
  @mock.uses_one_string("bar") # => true
  @mock.verify  # => raises MockExpectationError
--8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<--

Then, if I ask ri for Mock, nothing comes out, I never used Mock
myself - I know nothing about that. Hmm... looks like this doc is a
leftover from an old installation (mock seems to have been part of
Ruby in the past but it is not there anymore). I expect you will find
stuff about Mock on the net.
