By "similar construct" I meant something that achievs the same goal
(running pieces of code at different times during the run).
I suggested Before(:all) and After(:all) because:
* It's a familiar concept from RSpec examples
* It's much easier to read/write
Compare these:
# Your suggestion
Spec::Story::Runner.register_listener FunctionalStruct.new(
:run_started => lambda { |*args|
Generate.user(:login => "normal user")
}
)
# My suggestion:
Before(:all) do # We can pass args to the block if we want to
Generate.user(:login => "normal user")
end
