You can use FUSE :)

Sadly, FUSE is far from fast.

Great for quick fixes though, it's crazy to be able to locally mount a disk image that sits on the other side of the world on an HTTP server.

As far as it's ability as an FS mocking layer for tests, I'd think its principle disadvantage would be on FUSE only making sense on UNIX-like systems.
