# if you're converting a stock rails test/unit suite to rspec-2, this little business can help

module TestToSpec
  def self.included(includer)
    includer.class_eval do
      def test(*args, &block)
        example(*args, &block)
      end
    end
  end
end

RSpec.configure {|c| c.include TestToSpec}

# with that ^^ in place, the steps to convert are:
#
# 1. move test/functionals/things_controller_test.rb to spec/controllers/things_controller_spec.rb
# 2. require 'spec_helper' instead of 'test_helper'
# 3. change `class ThingsControllerTest < Test::Unit::TestCase` to `describe ThingsController do`
#
# Assuming you are using the `test "test name" do` format in your t/u suite, the above helper will convert
# test methods to RSpec examples. All of the test/unit assertions and rails assertions will continue to work,
# so standard tests should just work at this point.
