Write a RSpec test for method that takes a single argument-CodePudding

I need to write the RSpec test case for a module that has a private method and takes a single Argument.

module x
  private
  def fun(para)
  end
end

I have a spec file where I tried to write a case like this. para and params are the arguments we can say.

RSpec.describe x do
  class spec
    include x
    def initialize(params)
      @params = params
    end
  end

  describe "describe" do
    context "context" do
      it "should not truncate any normal text value" do
        obj = spec.new(params)
        # first 
        expect('dummy text').to obj.send(:fun).with(para)

        # second
        expect(obj).to receive(:fun).with(para);

        #third
        retr = obj.send(:fun).with(para);
        expect retr.to eq('dummy text')
      end
    end
  end
end

First, second and third, I used to get the output but these three ways didn’t work. They all are throwing some error. Guys, can you help me to understant what I'm doing wrong? How can I resolve this?

If a method is private you should not have to test it directly but in some cases, why not.
