RSpec

Behaviour Driven Development for Ruby

This is the old rspec metagem repository, please see the monorepo rspec/rspec for new issues and releases.

rspec is a meta-gem, which depends on the rspec-core, rspec-expectations and rspec-mocks gems. Each of these can be installed separately and loaded in isolation using require. Among other benefits, this allows you to use rspec-expectations, for example, in Test::Unit::TestCase if you happen to prefer that style.

Conversely, if you like RSpec's approach to declaring example groups and examples (describe and it) but prefer Test::Unit assertions and mocha, rr or flexmock for mocking, you'll be able to do that without having to install or load the components of RSpec that you're not using.

See http://rspec.info/documentation/ for links to documentation for all gems.

gem install rspec

rspec --init
