Description¶ ↑
Spectroscope
is an RSpec-style BDD framework that runs on top of the Ruby Test, the Ruby universal test harness. It supports all of RSpec's syntax, with a few exceptions.
Installation¶ ↑
$ gem install spectroscope
Instruction¶ ↑
Writing Specifications¶ ↑
Specifications are written as block of describe
and it
definitions.
Here's RSpec classic example:
describe Order do it "sums the prices of its line items" do order = Order.new order.add_entry(LineItem.new(:item => Item.new( :price => Money.new(1.11, :USD) ))) order.add_entry(LineItem.new(:item => Item.new( :price => Money.new(2.22, :USD), :quantity => 2 ))) order.total.should eq(Money.new(5.55, :USD)) end end
Spectroscope
only handle the specification structure, it does not provide an assertions system. For that use any of a number of available libraries, such Assay-RSpec or AE. You can require these in a helper script, or in Ruby Test configuration (see below).
Running Specifications¶ ↑
Running specification is done with the rubytest
command line utility.
$ rubytest -Ilib -rae/should spec/*_spec.rb
To make things simpler, create a .test
configuration file.
require 'ae/should' Test.run :default do |run| run.files << 'spec/*_spec.rb' end
Then simply use:
$ rubytest
