Scenario

Scenario brings basic "scenarios" to RSpec. You can define scenarios with a block or by passing in a Module (or even both).

Block:

describe_scenario :admin do
  define :setup_user do |name|
    User.create( :name => name, :admin => true )
  end
end

describe "Admin pages" do
  scenario :admin

  ...
end

Module:

module AdminMethods
  def setup_user( name )
    User.create( :name => name, :admin => true )
  end
end

describe_scenario :admin, AdminMethods

describe "Admin pages" do
  scenario :admin

  ...
end

Both:

module AdminMethods
  def setup_user( name )
    User.create( :name => name, :admin => true )
  end
end

describe_scenario :admin, AdminMethods do
  define :admin?( user )
    user.admin == true
  end
end

describe "Admin pages" do
  scenario :admin

  ...
end

Because scenarios are just Modules, you can use as many as you want:

describe "Admin pages" do
  scenario :users
  scenario :admin

  ...
end

And you can nest them:

describe "Login" do
  scenario :login

  describe "as an admin" do
    scenario :admin

    ...
  end

  describe "as a regular user" do
    scenario :user

    ...
  end
end

Fixtures

Basic fixture support is also included. (Please note that fixtures are currently hard-coded to spec/scenarios/fixtures. It will be configurable in a future version. Feel free to open a pull request or just monkey patch the root() method.

Scenario::Fixtures['html/sample.html'] # Returns contents of the fixture as
                                       # a string

Scenario::Fixtures caches the contents of the file so that the file only needs to be read once.

Contributing to Scenario

Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet
Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it
Fork the project
Start a feature/bugfix branch
Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
