Example of mocking out a library in Chef so you can test the provider in isolation.

If you want to test the library itself you can do more normal Ruby things.

class Chef
  class Recipe
    def skip_unsupported_platform
      unless supported_platform?
        Chef::Log.info("Unsupported platform #{node[:platform]} in #{cookbook_name}::#{recipe_name}, skipping recipe")
        Chef::Log.debug("You said to skip unsupported platforms in #{cookbook_name}::#{recipe_name}")
        Chef::Log.debug("and #{node['platform']} is unsupported by cookbook #{cookbook_name}. Update the cookbook's metadata")
        Chef::Log.debug("if this is a supported platform, or remove #{cookbook_name}::#{recipe_name} from the node.")
      end
    end
