receiver.should(matcher)
  => Passes if matcher.matches?(receiver)

receiver.should == expected #any value
  => Passes if (receiver == expected)

receiver.should === expected #any value
  => Passes if (receiver === expected)

receiver.should =~ regexp
  => Passes if (receiver =~ regexp)

See RSpec::Matchers for more information about matchers
