not type for hooks

[Jonathan Greenberg]

I am wondering if there is an existing syntax for not running a hook in specs of a certain type. For example:

config.before(not_type: :feature) do
  this_would_blow_up_a_feature_spec
end

I have not found anything like this in the documentation but I could easily be overlooking.

Thanks!

You can do this:

RSpec.configure do |config|

  config.before(:each) do |ex|

    unless ex.metadata[:type] == :feature

       this_would_blow_up_a_feature_spec

    end

  end

end

That assumes you are on 2.99 or 3.0.  If you're on an earlier version, remove the block `ex` args and use `example.metadata` instead of `ex.metadata`.

HTH,
