Extended by:
AutoCorrector
Defined in:
lib/rubocop/cop/rspec/example_wording.rb

Overview

Checks for common mistakes in example descriptions.

This cop will correct docstrings that begin with 'should' and 'it'.

The autocorrect is experimental - use with care! It can be configured with CustomTransform (e.g. have => has) and IgnoredWords (e.g. only).

Examples:

# bad
it 'should find nothing' do
end

# good
it 'finds nothing' do
end
# bad
it 'it does things' do
end

# good
it 'does things' do
end
