Rspec::BecomeMatcher Build Status

RSpec matcher to check that an expression changed its result within arbitrary seconds.

async_task.start!
expect { async_task.finished? }.to become(true)

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rspec-become-matcher'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rspec-become-matcher

Usage

Require and include matcher first:

require 'rspec/become_matcher'

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.include RSpec::BecomeMatcher
end

Then, asynchronous behaviour can be tested like this:

# Start some asynchronous task
async_task.start!

# `become` matcher checks the task is `finished?` periodically
expect { async_task.finished? }.to become(true) # => PASS

# Start long asynchronous task
long_task.start!

# By default, `become` matcher waits 3 seconds
expect { long_task.finished? }.to become(true) # => FAIL

# Start long asynchronous task, which finishes in 5 seconds
another_long_task.start!

# Timeout seconds can be specified with `in`
expect { another_long_task.finished? }.to become(true).in(10) # => PASS

# Expectation can be specified with block
yet_another_long_task.start!
expect { yet_another_long_task }.to become { |task| task.finished? } # => PASS
