Feature: start_with matcher
Use the `start_with` matcher to specify that a string or array starts with
the expected characters or elements.
```ruby
"this string".should start_with("this")
"this string".should_not start_with("that")
[0,1,2].should start_with(0, 1)
```
Scenario: with a string
Given a file named "example_spec.rb" with:
"""ruby
describe "this string" do
it { should start_with "this" }
it { should_not start_with "that" }
# deliberate failures
it { should_not start_with "this" }
it { should start_with "that" }
end
"""
When I run `rspec example_spec.rb`
Then the output should contain all of these:
| 4 examples, 2 failures |
| expected "this string" not to start with "this" |
| expected "this string" to start with "that" |
Scenario: with an array
Given a file named "example_spec.rb" with:
"""ruby
describe [0, 1, 2, 3, 4] do
it { should start_with 0 }
it { should start_with(0, 1)}
it { should_not start_with(2) }
it { should_not start_with(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) }
# deliberate failures
it { should_not start_with 0 }
it { should start_with 3 }
end
"""
When I run `rspec example_spec.rb`
Then the output should contain all of these:
| 6 examples, 2 failures |
| expected [0, 1, 2, 3, 4] not to start with 0 |
| expected [0, 1, 2, 3, 4] to start with 3 |
|
