RSpec Deep Matcher

This gem adds a custom matcher to RSpec to recursively compare nested Ruby data-structures consisting of Hash and Array elements. An order of elements in an array is ignored.

Install

gem install rspec-deep-ignore-order-matcher

or add to your Gemfile

gem 'rspec-deep-ignore-order-matcher'

and run

bundle install

Example

require 'rspec-deep-ignore-order-matcher'

describe 'Products' do
    it "should ignore order of product's tags" do
        expected = [{ :product => { :title => 'Product 1', :tags => ['large', 'blue', 'heavy'] } }]
        actual = [{ :product => { :title => 'Product 1', :tags => ['blue', 'large', 'heavy'] } }]
        actual.should be_deep_equal expected
    end
end
