DESCRIPTION:¶ ↑

minitest-bacon extends minitest with bacon-like functionality. It should allow you to bridge 90+% of your bacon specs over to minitest.

FEATURES/PROBLEMS:¶ ↑

Passes almost all of bacon's tests.
Where they don't it is documented why they don't.

Differences with Bacon:¶ ↑

Only one before/after block per describe (ie, they're just methods again).
Object#should doesn't work outside of describe. Not sure what that's for.
Tests are no longer order dependent. This is a Good Thing™.

SYNOPSIS:¶ ↑

require "minitest/bacon"

describe "A new array" do
  before do
    @ary = Array.new
  end

  it "should be empty" do
    @ary.should.be.empty
    @ary.should.not.include 1
  end

  it "should have zero size" do
    @ary.size.should.equal 0
    @ary.size.should.be.close 0.1, 0.5
  end

  it "should raise on trying fetch any index" do
    lambda { @ary.fetch 0 }.
      should.raise(IndexError).
      message.should.match(/out of array/)

    # Alternatively:
    should.raise(IndexError) { @ary.fetch 0 }
  end

  it "should have an object identity" do
    @ary.should.not.be.same_as Array.new
  end

  # Custom assertions are trivial to do, they are lambdas returning a
  # boolean vale:
  palindrome = lambda { |obj| obj == obj.reverse }
  it "should be a palindrome" do
    @ary.should.be.a palindrome
  end

  it "should have super powers" do
    should.flunk "no super powers found"
  end
end
