Instance Method Details

#assign(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

Lets you write:

subject { get :show }
it { should assign(:blah) }
it { should assign(:blah =>"something") }

or, more interestingly:

it { should assign(:blah) == "something" }
it { should assign(:blah => is_a(String)) }
it { should assign(:blah => satisfy { |value| Thing.exists? :blah => value }) }
