# BSON stores document keys as strings, so Hash keys are strings
# when going into MongoDB and coming out. This extension allows
# a developer to not worry as to whether or not the keys are
# Strings or Symbols.
#
# This requires Mongoid 2.4.3+ and Rails 3.
#
# Instead of needing Rails you could just require ActiveSupport. In your Gemfile (or .gemspec)
# gem "activesupport", ">= 3.0.0"

# RSpec's subject method, both implicitly and explicitly set, is useful for
# declaratively setting up the context of the object under test. If you provide a
# class for your describe block, subject will implicitly be set to a new instance
# of this class (with no arguments passed to the constructor). If you want
# something more complex done, such as setting arguments, you can use the
# explicit subject setter, which takes a block.

  context "born 19 years ago" do
