Mocha/MiniTest integration

I think that the approach @tenderlove has suggested to avoid monkey-patching MiniTest (and the way MiniTest works) means that to use Mocha with MiniTest, you would either need to include the Mocha integration module into every test case, or define your own test case class inheriting from MiniTest::Unit::TestCase.

This works well for Rails (i.e. ActiveSupport), because it already defines a new test case class (ActiveSupport::TestCase) which is a suitable place to include the Mocha integration module.

If we were to go down this route, in non-Rails Ruby projects you'd need to do one of the following...

Option A

    class MyTestCase < MiniTest::Unit::TestCase
      include Mocha::Integration::MiniTest
    end
    
    class TestCaseOne < MyTestCase
      def test_foo
        o = mock
        o.expects(:foo)
      end
    end
    
    class TestCaseTwo < MyTestCase
      def test_bar
        o = mock
        mock.expects(:bar)
      end
    end

Option B

    class TestCaseOne < MiniTest::Unit::TestCase
      include Mocha::Integration::MiniTest
      def test_foo
        o = mock
        o.expects(:foo)
      end
    end

    class TestCaseTwo < MiniTest::Unit::TestCase
      include Mocha::Integration::MiniTest
      def test_foo
        o = mock
        o.expects(:foo)
      end
    end

The explicit-ness and the lack of monkey-patching is clearly beneficial, but do you think the above options are too onerous compared to the current behaviour where MiniTest::Unit::TestCase itself is monkey-patched and you could simply do the following :-

    require "minitest/unit"
    require "mocha"
    
    class TestCaseOne < MiniTest::Unit::TestCase
      def test_foo
        o = mock
        o.expects(:foo)
      end
    end

    class TestCaseTwo < MiniTest::Unit::TestCase
      def test_foo
        o = mock
        o.expects(:foo)
      end
    end
