How do I write tests for facebook graph api in my rails app?

Question

I'm using rails 3 and experimenting with the facebook graph api. I'm trying to do things in a TDD/BDD way but I'm not sure how to test my calls to the api. Do I simply wrap the facebook api methods into stubs and return mock objects?

I'm actually faced with a similar problem. I'm looking at https://github.com/mislav/fakeweb as a way of mocking out http responses. Haven't used it for real yet, but based on my preliminary experiments I think it'll work for my purposes. Maybe it'll work for yours too.
