Project: RSpec Expectations 3.2

Minitest integration

rspec-expectations is a stand-alone gem that can be used without the rest of RSpec. If you
like minitest as your test runner, but prefer RSpec's approach to expressing expectations,
you can have both.

To integrate rspec-expectations with minitest, require rspec/expectations/minitest_integration.

Scenarios

use rspec/expectations with minitest

Given

a file named "rspec_expectations_test.rb" with:

require 'minitest/autorun'
require 'rspec/expectations/minitest_integration'

class RSpecExpectationsTest < Minitest::Test
  RSpec::Matchers.define :be_an_integer do
    match { |actual| Integer === actual }
  end

  def be_an_int
    # This is actually an internal rspec-expectations API, but is used
    # here to demonstrate that deprecation warnings from within
    # rspec-expectations work correcty without depending on rspec-core
    RSpec.deprecate(:be_an_int, :replacement => :be_an_integer)
    be_an_integer
  end

  def test_passing_expectation
    expect(1 + 3).to eq 4
  end

  def test_failing_expectation
    expect([1, 2]).to be_empty
  end

  def test_custom_matcher_with_deprecation_warning
    expect(1).to be_an_int
  end
end

When

I run ruby rspec_expectations_test.rb

Then

the output should contain "3 runs, 3 assertions, 1 failures, 0 errors"

And

the output should contain "expected [1, 2].empty? to return true, got false"

And

the output should contain "be_an_int is deprecated"
