Feature: shared context
Use `shared_context` to define a block that will be evaluated in the context
of example groups either explicitly, using `include_context`, or implicitly by
matching metadata.
When implicitly including shared contexts via matching metadata, the normal way is to define matching metadata on an example group, in which case the context is included in the entire group. However, you also have the option to include it in an individual example instead. RSpec treats every example as having a singleton example group (analogous to Ruby's singleton classes) containing just the one example.
Background:
Given a file named "shared_stuff.rb" with:
"""ruby
RSpec.shared_context "shared stuff", :a => :b do
before { @some_var = :some_value }
def shared_method
"it works"
end
let(:shared_let) { {'arbitrary' => 'object'} }
subject do
'this is the subject'
end
end
"""
Scenario: Declare a shared context and include it with `include_context`
Given a file named "shared_context_example.rb" with:
"""ruby
require "./shared_stuff.rb"
RSpec.describe "group that includes a shared context using 'include_context'" do
include_context "shared stuff"
it "has access to methods defined in shared context" do
expect(shared_method).to eq("it works")
end
it "has access to methods defined with let in shared context" do
expect(shared_let['arbitrary']).to eq('object')
end
it "runs the before hooks defined in the shared context" do
expect(@some_var).to be(:some_value)
end
it "accesses the subject defined in the shared context" do
expect(subject).to eq('this is the subject')
end
end
"""
When I run `rspec shared_context_example.rb`
Then the examples should all pass
