Hi I found that if I set assigns[:variables] in a spec, the value is maintained in subsequent specs.
Example rails helper method: def return_at_variable @variable end Specs: #this passes obviously it 'should return true if assigns[:variable] is true' do assigns[:variable] = true helper.return_at_variable.should be_true end #this does not pass it 'should return nil becasue assigns[:variable] is not set' do helper.return_at_variable.should be_nil end '' FAILED expected nil? to return true, got false In this case both tests pass: it 'should return true if assigns[:variable] is true' do assigns[:variable] = true helper.return_at_variable.should be_true end it 'should return nil becasue assigns[:variable] is not set' do helper.return_at_variable.should be_true end Getting around this is simple enough - by just clearing/declaring the assigs[:variables] where ever I need to, but I am wondering if this is normal behaviour?
