CableReady broadcasts are not working in system tests
If you want to check out an alternative to VCR, have a look at webmock.

TDD is super important and useful!
Well, that's why your test says: "When the API responds like this I do that". People hate on ruby but webmock makes it very nice to mock/stub that, or for python there's responses. For the database you can use a local database with factories to easily create the data you need for each test and clear it between tests.

It is becoming difficult for me to be productive in Python
Man if you think python has great mocking/testing support, you check out some ruby tests! Honestly some of the best testing libraries that pioneered approaches that are becoming more common elsewhere, such as the expectations syntax. And now that I'm coding more in python I find myself missing libaries like webmock, letting you stub web reqests in a way that's agnostic of the HTTP/web libary, chef's kiss.
- Are there any testing frameworks to intercept HTTP and Database calls?

Configure VCR with RSpec
In order to keep our test suite faster and consistent, we need to mock our http requests. A simple and good way to achieve this is using the Webmock gem which allow easily mock the http responses for your requests.

Testing Dependencies: Fake It While You Make It
We can avoid managing HTTP communication with our dependency. Instead, we'll stub out how we expect it to respond. In this case, we'll use webmock to stub out a response at the HTTP layer.

A Ruby gem to create production grade Kubernetes clusters in Hetzner Cloud in a couple of minutes or less
The other option is to mock the web requests to Hetzner - this: https://github.com/bblimke/webmock or similar may help.

There are fine istructions in WebMock README. I want to share it here for reference:

Testing external APIs with Rspec and WebMock
You can find the setup instructions and examples on how to use WebMock, in their github documentation. WebMock will prevent any external HTTP requests from your application so make sure you add this gem under the test group of your Gemfile.
