Speaking for myself, I never was confused between before(:each) and before(:all). The first always meant before each OF the examples, and the latter before all the examples. As a devil's advocate, while before(:any) might evoke the current meaning of before(:all) for some people, after(:any) to me evokes the curent meaning of after(:each) more than it does after(:all), i.e. after any OF the examples rather than after all the examples, because I'd never say after any the examples. But that might just be me. -- Rick DeNatale Blog: http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/ Github: http://github.com/rubyredrick Twitter: @RickDeNatale WWR: http://www.workingwithrails.com/person/9021-rick-denatale LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/rickdenatale _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
