Stubbing all methods of a groovy class?

Is there an easy way to stub ALL methods of a groovy class? In one of my tests, I need to make sure a certain code path doesn't touch a service at all.

That is, I want to mock every method like this:

[meth1: {-> fail(msg)},
 meth2: {-> fail(msg)...}] as MyService

Is there an easy way to stub and intercept all methods of all argument types and perform some uniform action like this?

If MyService is an interface you can do this:

MyService stub = {Object[] args -> fail(msg)} as MyService

I'm not sure if this works when MyService is a class

The most simple way I can think of is something like this:

MyService.metaClass.invokeMethod { String name, args ->
  assert false
}
