[erlang-questions] How to meck?

[Magnus Klaar]

Hi!

You can only mock external calls using meck, this means that you must
prefix the call to a() in meck_module_for_test:call_a/0 with
 meck_module_for_test: or ?MODULE: to ensure that the call is handled by
the mocked version of the module. When you make a local call to a function
in the same module it will always call the function defined in the current
module version.
