Hi Martin,
Thanks for that. It worked a treat.
I just did some simple validation in the end.
yaml_object = YAML.load(content)
expect(yaml_object.length).to be > 0
I validate the content elsewhere but this is just an a basic check that
it's able to parse it. I have been using regexp to validate the content up
to now so I suppose I could move to using this yaml module to check that as
well.
