RSpec Testing Skill

Core Patterns

Basic Test

RSpec.describe Calculator do
  subject(:calculator) { described_class.new }

  describe '#add' do
    it 'adds two positive numbers' do
      expect(calculator.add(2, 3)).to eq(5)
    end

    it 'handles negative numbers' do
      expect(calculator.add(-1, 1)).to eq(0)
    end
  end

  describe '#divide' do
    it 'divides evenly' do
      expect(calculator.divide(10, 2)).to eq(5)
    end

    it 'raises on zero divisor' do
      expect { calculator.divide(10, 0) }.to raise_error(ZeroDivisionError)
    end
  end
end

Matchers

# Equality
expect(actual).to eq(expected)           # ==
expect(actual).to eql(expected)          # eql?
expect(actual).to equal(expected)        # equal? (same object)
expect(actual).to be(expected)           # equal?

# Comparison
expect(value).to be > 5
expect(value).to be_between(1, 10).inclusive

# Truthiness
expect(value).to be_truthy
expect(value).to be_falsey
expect(value).to be_nil

# Collections
expect(array).to include(3)
expect(array).to contain_exactly(1, 2, 3)
expect(array).to match_array([3, 1, 2])
expect(hash).to include(name: 'Alice')

# Strings
expect(str).to include('hello')
expect(str).to start_with('He')
expect(str).to match(/\d+/)

# Types
expect(obj).to be_a(String)
expect(obj).to be_an_instance_of(MyClass)

# Exceptions
expect { method }.to raise_error(StandardError)
expect { method }.to raise_error(StandardError, /message/)

# Change
expect { user.activate }.to change(user, :active).from(false).to(true)
expect { list.push(1) }.to change(list, :size).by(1)

Hooks and Let

RSpec.describe UserService do
  let(:repo) { instance_double(UserRepository) }
  let(:service) { described_class.new(repo) }

  before(:each) do
    allow(repo).to receive(:save).and_return(true)
  end

  after(:each) { cleanup }
  before(:all) { setup_database }
  after(:all) { teardown_database }

  context 'when creating a user' do
    it 'saves to repository' do
      service.create('Alice', 'alice@test.com')
      expect(repo).to have_received(:save).once
    end
  end
end

Mocking and Stubbing

# Doubles
user = double('User', name: 'Alice', email: 'alice@test.com')
user = instance_double(User, name: 'Alice')

# Stubs
allow(service).to receive(:fetch).and_return(data)
allow(service).to receive(:fetch).with('id').and_return(user)

# Expectations
expect(service).to receive(:save).once
expect(service).to receive(:notify).with('alice@test.com')
expect(service).not_to receive(:delete)

Shared Examples

RSpec.shared_examples 'a valid model' do
  it { is_expected.to be_valid }
  it { is_expected.to respond_to(:save) }
end

RSpec.describe User do
  subject { described_class.new(name: 'Alice') }
  it_behaves_like 'a valid model'
end
