Public Instance Methods

allow_message_expectations_on_nil() click to toggle source

Disables warning messages about expectations being set on nil.

By default warning messages are issued when expectations are set on nil. This is to prevent false-positives and to catch potential bugs early on.

# File lib/rspec/mocks/example_methods.rb, line 51
def allow_message_expectations_on_nil
  RSpec::Mocks.space.proxy_for(nil).warn_about_expectations = false

clarify intent

@param stubs (Hash) (optional) hash of method/return-value pairs @return (Mock)

Constructs an instance of [RSpec::Mocks::Mock](RSpec::Mocks::Mock) configured with an optional name, used for reporting in failure messages, and an optional hash of method/return-value pairs.

@example

book = double("book", :title => "The RSpec Book")
book.title #=> "The RSpec Book"

card = double("card", :suit => "Spades", :rank => "A")
card.suit  #=> "Spades"
card.rank  #=> "A"

def double(*args)
  declare_double('Double', *args)
end
have_received(method_name) click to toggle source

Verifies that the given object received the expected message during the course of the test. The method must have previously been stubbed in order for messages to be verified.

Stubbing and verifying messages received in this way implements the Test Spy pattern.

@param method_name [Symbol] name of the method expected to have been

called.

@example

invitation = double('invitation', accept: true)
user.accept_invitation(invitation)
expect(invitation).to have_received(:accept)

# You can also use most message expectations:
expect(invitation).to have_received(:accept).with(mailer).once
# File lib/rspec/mocks/example_methods.rb, line 130
def have_received(method_name)
  Matchers::HaveReceived.new(method_name)
end
hide_const(constant_name) click to toggle source

Hides the named constant with the given value. The constant will be undefined for the duration of the test.

Like method stubs, the constant will be restored to its original value when the example completes.

@param constant_name [String] The fully qualified name of the constant.

The current constant scoping at the point of call is not considered.

@example

hide_const("MyClass") # => MyClass is now an undefined constant
# File lib/rspec/mocks/example_methods.rb, line 108
def hide_const(constant_name)
  ConstantMutator.hide(constant_name)
end

end
stub_const(constant_name, value, options = {}) click to toggle source

Stubs the named constant with the given value. Like method stubs, the constant will be restored to its original value (or lack of one, if it was undefined) when the example completes.

@param constant_name [String] The fully qualified name of the constant. The current

constant scoping at the point of call is not considered.

@param value [Object] The value to make the constant refer to. When the

example completes, the constant will be restored to its prior state.

@param options [Hash] Stubbing options. @option options :transfer_nested_constants [Boolean, Array<Symbol>] Determines

what nested constants, if any, will be transferred from the original value
of the constant to the new value of the constant. This only works if both
the original and new values are modules (or classes).

@return [Object] the stubbed value of the constant

@example

stub_const("MyClass", Class.new) # => Replaces (or defines) MyClass with a new class object.
stub_const("SomeModel::PER_PAGE", 5) # => Sets SomeModel::PER_PAGE to 5.

class CardDeck
  SUITS = [:Spades, :Diamonds, :Clubs, :Hearts]
  NUM_CARDS = 52
end

stub_const("CardDeck", Class.new)
CardDeck::SUITS # => uninitialized constant error
CardDeck::NUM_CARDS # => uninitialized constant error

stub_const("CardDeck", Class.new, :transfer_nested_constants => true)
CardDeck::SUITS # => our suits array
CardDeck::NUM_CARDS # => 52

stub_const("CardDeck", Class.new, :transfer_nested_constants => [:SUITS])
CardDeck::SUITS # => our suits array
CardDeck::NUM_CARDS # => uninitialized constant error
# File lib/rspec/mocks/example_methods.rb, line 92
def stub_const(constant_name, value, options = {})
