Drying repeated specs in RSpec
- by snl
In the test below, the Bar and Baz blocks contain identical specs.
Leaving aside why such repetition was necessary in the first place, I'm wondering how one could dry this up.
I tried turning the blocks into objects and calling them under Bar and Baz, but possibly because I did not get the scopes right, I have not been able to make it work.
describe Foo do
describe Bar do
before(:each) do
prepare
end
it "should do something" do
true
end
it "should do something else" do
true
end
end
describe Baz do
before(:each) do
prepare_something_else
end
it "should do something" do
true
end
it "should do something else" do
true
end
end
end
