Mocha 1.19 introduced nested contexts, where each `describe` has its own context inheriting from parent's context via prototype. The helper `whenCalledRemotely` was reading `this.url` to allow users to override the url. However, since `whenCalledRemotely` was not clearing `this.url` properly at the end of the test, the override worked for the first request only. Subsequent requests used the same URL as provided in the helper parameters. This commit fixes the problem by changing `this.url = undefined` to `delete this.url`, so that the the sub-sequent calls can access `this.__proto__.url` in the same way as the first call.
