## New class

class EnvChecker
  def self.production?
    ENV['RAILS_ENV'] == 'production'
  end
  
  def self.development?
    ENV['RAILS_ENV'] == 'development'
  end
end

## Helper snipbit

### Instead of this:
...
 def swfobject_tag(source, options={})
    path = swfobject_path(source)
    verify_file_exists = options.fetch(:verify_file_exists, ENV['RAILS_ENV'] == 'development')
...

### Use this
...
 def swfobject_tag(source, options={})
    path = swfobject_path(source)
    verify_file_exists = options.fetch(:verify_file_exists, EnvChecker.development?)
...

## In Helper Spec

### Instead of:
...
before(:each) do
  ENV['RAILS_ENV'] = 'production'
  self.stub!(:compute_public_path).and_return('/applets/url.swf')
end
...

### Use this:
...
before(:each) do
  EnvChecker.stub!(:development?).and_return(false)
  EnvChecker.stub!(:production?).and_return(true)
  self.stub!(:compute_public_path).and_return('/applets/url.swf')
end
