Embedding RSpec Specifications in YARD Documentation¶ ↑

This plugin demonstrates how RSpec tests can be embedded within standard documentation using only a small amount of plugin code. The example generates documentation for the following {String#pig_latin} method and RSpec tests:

# Run `yardoc -e ../lib/yard-rspec example_code.rb`

class String
  # Pig latin of a String
  def pig_latin
    self[1..-1] + self[0] + "ay"
  end
end

#
# Specs
#
describe String, '#pig_latin' do
  it "should be a pig!" do
    "hello".pig_latin.should == "ellohay"
   end

  it "should fail to be a pig!" do
    "hello".pig_latin.should == "hello"
  end
end

View the “Specifications” section within the {String#pig_latin} method to see these tests.
