NTLM authentication with Ruby and Faraday
Net::HTTP is good. Even so, how to authenticate with popular gem, for instance Faraday? I started to figure out how to implement the protocol with Faraday 🤔

Testing external APIs with Rspec and WebMock
I'm too tied to the implementation. If one day I decide to use Faraday or HTTParty as my HTTP clients instead of Net::HTTP, this test will fail.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing excon and Faraday you can also consider the following projects:
httparty - :tada: Makes http fun again!
RESTClient - Simple HTTP and REST client for Ruby, inspired by microframework syntax for specifying actions.
Typhoeus - Typhoeus wraps libcurl in order to make fast and reliable requests.
Http Client - 'httpclient' gives something like the functionality of libwww-perl (LWP) in Ruby.
HTTP - HTTP (The Gem! a.k.a. http.rb) - a fast Ruby HTTP client with a chainable API, streaming support, and timeouts
