### Public Instance methods

after(*args, &proc)

Alias for prepend_after

append_after(*args, &proc)

Appends a global `after` block to all example groups. See append_before for filtering semantics.

append_before(*args, &proc)

Appends a global `before` block to all example groups.

If you want to restrict the block to a subset of all the example groups then specify this in a Hash as the last argument:

      config.prepend_before(:all, :type => :farm)

or

      config.prepend_before(:type => :farm)

before(*args, &proc)

Alias for append_before

extend(*args)
include(Some::Helpers)
include(Some::Helpers, More::Helpers)
include(My::Helpers, :type => :key)

Declares modules to be included in multiple example groups (`describe` blocks). With no :type, the modules listed will be included in all example groups. Use :type to restrict the inclusion to a subset of example groups. The value assigned to :type should be a key that maps to a class that is either a subclass of Spec::Example::ExampleGroup or extends Spec::Example::ExampleGroupMethods and includes Spec::Example::ExampleMethods

      config.include(My::Pony, My::Horse, :type => :farm)

Only example groups that have that type will get the modules included:

      describe "Downtown", :type => :city do
        # Will *not* get My::Pony and My::Horse included
      end

      describe "Old Mac Donald", :type => :farm do
        # *Will* get My::Pony and My::Horse included
      end

include_or_extend(*args)
mock_with(mock_framework)

Chooses what mock framework to use. Example:

      Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
        config.mock_with :rspec, :mocha, :flexmock, or :rr
      end

To use any other mock framework, you‘ll have to provide your own adapter. This is simply a module that responds to the following methods:

      setup_mocks_for_rspec
      verify_mocks_for_rspec
      teardown_mocks_for_rspec.

These are your hooks into the lifecycle of a given example. RSpec will call setup_mocks_for_rspec before running anything else in each Example. After executing the after methods, RSpec will then call verify_mocks_for_rspec and teardown_mocks_for_rspec (this is guaranteed to run even if there are failures in verify_mocks_for_rspec).

Once you‘ve defined this module, you can pass that to mock_with:

      Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
        config.mock_with MyMockFrameworkAdapter
      end

predicate_matchers()

Defines global predicate matchers. Example:

      config.predicate_matchers[:swim] = :can_swim?

This makes it possible to say:

      person.should swim # passes if person.can_swim? returns true

prepend_after(*args, &proc)

Prepends a global `after` block to all example groups. See append_before for filtering semantics.

prepend_before(*args, &proc)

Prepends a global `before` block to all example groups. See append_before for filtering semantics.
