Hi,
I've just started using prawn but am at a bit of a loss how to create my
view specs for it.
For example, my normal view spec has things like
response.should have_tag("blah")
or
response.body.should =~ /something/

How do I do this with prawn output?

In what language is prawn output?

Generally speaking, a View is 2D or 3D, yet our tests must run in 1 dimension. In HTML, we do that by parsing the elements back into a DOM, and inspecting this. We don't necessarily do it by rendering a page and looking at it!

So if prawn were PS, can you get a post script parser, parse it, and look for your details?

(Note, too, that .should =~ is only a cheap approximation of parsing...)
