Instance Method Details

#describe(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

Overwrites describe to provide quick way to configure your subject:

describe Post
  should_validate_presente_of :title

  describe :published => true do
    should_validate_presence_of :published_at
  end
end

This is the same as:

describe Post
  should_validate_presente_of :title

  describe "when published is true" do
    subject { Post.new(:published => true) }
    should_validate_presence_of :published_at
  end
end

The string can be localized using I18n. An example yml file is:

locale:
  remarkable:
    mongo_mapper:
      describe:
        each: "{{key}} is {{value}}"
        prepend: "when "
        connector: " and "

See also subject_attributes instance and class methods for more information.

#subject_attributes(options = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Sets default attributes for the subject. You can use this to set up your subject with valid attributes. You can even mix with a fixture replacement tool and still use quick subjects:

describe Post
  # Fixjour example
  subject_attributes { valid_post_attributes }

  describe :published => true do
    should_validate_presence_of :published_at
  end
end
