Constructor Details

#initialize(*attributes) ⇒ AttributesSpecification

The default initialize method stores all attributes in an instance variable called @attributes. When sub-classing, it is important to call super with the given attributes, for example:

class MyOwnSpecification < ActiveSpec::Specifications::AttributesSpecification
  def initialize(custom_var, *attributes)
    # do something with custom_var
    super(*attributes)
  end
end

# File 'lib/active_spec/specifications/attributes_specification.rb', line 19

def initialize(*attributes)
  @attributes = attributes
end
