# RSpec::Memory
Make assertions about memory usage.
[](https://github.com/socketry/rspec-memory/actions?workflow=Test)
## Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
``` ruby
gem 'rspec-memory'
```
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install rspec-memory
Finally, add this require statement to the top of `spec/spec_helper.rb`
``` ruby
require 'rspec/memory'
```
## Usage
Allocating large amounts of objects can lead to memory problems. `RSpec::Memory` adds a `limit_allocations` matcher, which tracks the number of allocations and memory size for each object type and allows you to specify expected limits.
``` ruby
RSpec.describe "memory allocations" do
include_context RSpec::Memory
it "limits allocation counts" do
expect do
6.times{String.new}
end.to limit_allocations(String => 10) # 10 strings can be allocated
end
it "limits allocation counts (hash)" do
expect do
6.times{String.new}
end.to limit_allocations(String => {count: 10}) # 10 strings can be allocated
end
it "limits allocation size" do
expect do
6.times{String.new("foo")}
end.to limit_allocations(String => {size: 1024}) # 1 KB of strings can be allocated
end
end
```
