Great gem, very useful but its hard to put into TDD since its fairly complex. Generally other gems like this (i.e. clickatell's gem) include a method to emulate the API so that one can run tests but not hit there account. Any chance of getting that implemented here?

I put together a mostly functional simulator [1] a little over a year ago, but it was focused solely on TwiML conversations. If I ever have some free time, I want to revisit the project and put together a more comprehensive simulator, but as a college student, I don't see that happening any time soon.

We know testing against the Twilio API is a pain point for a lot of developers and we are thinking about ways to solve that problem. I am closing this since it doesn't reflect an issue with the twilio-ruby library specifically.
