Hi -- Thanks for sharing all your tips. I couldn't understand your
line about what replaces have_text, however. I don't see a method
called "matches" or "match"...
I think your list might be the start of an effort by users to document
RSpec2 the hard way, since a lot has changed that the core team has
not documented anywhere. We've found that the Rails3 upgrade is some
work, but the advantages over Rails 2 are clear. RSpec2, however, is
so poorly documented, useful features have been removed for no
apparent reason, and any advantages over RSpec1 have not become clear
yet (our test suite runs 3 times slower than it did in RSpec1!).
