Alias for prepend_after

Appends a global after block to all example groups.

See append_before for scoping semantics.

Appends a global before block to all example groups. scope can be any of :each (default), :all, or :suite. When :each, the block is executed before each example. When :all, the block is executed once per example group, before any of its examples are run. When :suite the block is run once before the entire suite is run.

before(scope = :each, options={}, &proc)

Alias for append_before

Works just like include, but extends the example groups with the modules rather than including them.

Declares modules to be included in multiple example groups (describe blocks). With no :type, the modules listed will be included in all example groups.

Use :type to restrict the inclusion to a subset of example groups. The value assigned to :type should be a key that maps to a class that is either a subclass of Spec::Example::ExampleGroup or extends Spec::Example::ExampleGroupMethods and includes Spec::Example::ExampleMethods.

For example, the rspec-rails gem/plugin extends Test::Unit::TestCase with Spec::Example::ExampleGroupMethods and includes Spec::Example::ExampleMethods in it. So if you have a module of helper methods for controller examples, you could do this:

  config.include(ControllerExampleHelpers, :type => :controller)

Only example groups that have that type will get the modules included:

  describe Account, :type => :model do
    # Will *not* include ControllerExampleHelpers
  end

  describe AccountsController, :type => :controller do
    # *Will* include ControllerExampleHelpers
  end

Chooses what mock framework to use. Example:

  Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
    config.mock_with :rspec, :mocha, :flexmock, or :rr
  end

To use any other mock framework, you‘ll have to provide your own adapter. This is simply a module that responds to the following methods:

  setup_mocks_for_rspec
  verify_mocks_for_rspec
  teardown_mocks_for_rspec.

These are your hooks into the lifecycle of a given example. RSpec will call setup_mocks_for_rspec before running anything else in each Example. After executing the after methods, RSpec will then call verify_mocks_for_rspec and teardown_mocks_for_rspec (this is guaranteed to run even if there are failures in verify_mocks_for_rspec).

Once you‘ve defined this module, you can pass that to mock_with:

  Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
    config.mock_with MyMockFrameworkAdapter
  end

DEPRECATED - use Spec::Matchers::DSL instead

Defines global predicate matchers. Example:

  config.predicate_matchers[:swim] = :can_swim?

This makes it possible to say:

  person.should swim # passes if person.can_swim? returns true
