Help with Specify

[Alexander Karsten]

Hello,

I am trying to learn RSpec by building a connect four game. I have a board class, that stores the game board as an array and I'm trying to validate the dimensions of the array.

However I feel like im going horribly wrong here and hours of googling were to no help.

How do I do this right?

  context "board array" do

    specify { expect(subject.board).to be_a Array }

    specify { expect(subject.board.length).to eq 6 }

    specify { expect(subject.board.all? { |row| row.length == 7 }).to be_truthy }

  end

Thank you very much for your time.

In what way is this not working for you?

 

My guess is likely that you haven't defined `subject`?

 

context do

  subject { Game.new }

  # ...

end

What you have there looks fine, assuming that's nested in some parent example group that defines `subject`.  What problem are you having with what you've written?  If you're getting a failure, please paste it in a reply, including the stack trace.
