I used Mockery to Mock a Constructor/Function without any problems.

var mockery = require('mockery');
var sinon = require('sinon');

mockery.enable({
  useCleanCache: true,
  warnOnReplace: false,
  warnOnUnregistered: false
});

exports.Client = function() {/* Client constructor Mock */};
var ClientSpy = sinon.spy(exports, 'Client');
mockery.registerMock('Client', ClientSpy);

var Factory = require('Factory'); // this module requires the Client module

You should be able to apply a Sinon Spy just as the example above does.

Make sure to disable or reset Mockery after the test(s)!
