"Its" makes testing methods with multiple arguments much easier
Tested on MRI Ruby 1.8.7, 1.9.2, 1.9.3, Rubinius (1.8 and 1.9) and JRuby
Have you ever written something like this in your specs?
it "should be US currency" do
subject.currency(:us).should == 'US dollar'
end
it "should be AU currency" do
subject.currency(:au).should == 'AU dollar'
end
it "should be UK currency" do
subject.currency(:uk).should == 'UK pound'
endIf yes, then this is what you really needed:
its(:currency, :us) { should == 'US dollar' }
its(:currency, :au) { should == 'AU dollar' }
its(:currency, :uk) { should == 'UK pound' }Installation and use
Add to your Gemfile:
gem 'its'Then require it somewhere:
require 'its'And you are done.
