Feature: Aggregating Failures
RSpec::Expectations provides [`aggregate_failures`](../../rspec-expectations/aggregating-failures), an API that allows you to group a set of expectations and see all the failures at once, rather than it aborting on the first failure. RSpec::Core improves on this feature in a couple of ways:
* RSpec::Core provides much better failure output, adding code snippets and backtraces to the sub-failures, just like it does for any normal failure.
* RSpec::Core provides [metadata](../metadata/user-defined-metadata) integration for this feature. Each example that is tagged with `:aggregate_failures` will be wrapped in an `aggregate_failures` block. You can also use `config.define_derived_metadata` to apply this to every example automatically.
The metadata form is quite convenient, but may not work well for end-to-end tests that have multiple distinct steps. For example, consider a spec for an HTTP client workflow that (1) makes a request, (2) expects a redirect, (3) follows the redirect, and (4) expects a particular response. You probably want the `expect(response.status).to be_between(300, 399)` expectation to immediately abort if it fails, because you can't perform the next step (following the redirect) if that is not satisfied. For these situations, we encourage you to use the `aggregate_failures` block form to wrap each set of expectations that represents a distinct step in the test workflow.
