eg.
I'm going to the store to buy one milk
I'm going to the store to buy one bagel
I'm going to the store to buy one coffee
@shopping_list.should_receive(:milk).once.and_return('milk')
@shopping_list.should_receive(:bagel).once.and_return('bagel')
@shopping_list.should_receive(:coffee).once.and_return('coffee')
I going to the store to buy one:
* milk
* bagel
* coffee
@shopping_list.should_receive_the_following(
:milk => 'milk'
:bagel => 'bagel'
:coffee => 'coffee'
).once
For the shopping list I describe its expected that they all have the same
expectations.
I'm still reading the rspec source.
I would think of creating a new method called: should_receive_the_following
but seeing how the message_expectations work not sure how plausible it would
be to implement.
You wouldn't expect to return something:
@shopping_list.should_receive_the_following(
:milk => 'milk'
:bagel => 'bagel'
:coffee => 'coffee'
).once.and_return(@list)
It boggles my mind. I haven't done too much meta programming.
I just see these large blocks of:
@shopping_list.should_receive(:milk)..and_return('milk')
@shopping_list.should_receive(:bagel).and_return('bagel')
@shopping_list.should_receive(:coffee).and_return('coffee')
and it would be much clearer if I could list them in a hash instead.
