This has been through a bit of churn, but here is the short version:
it_should_behave_like creates (and wraps) a nested group, but there is are also
two new include_context/include_examples methods. Your choices are:
describe "describe" do
it_should_behave_like "shared" do
it "works too" do
testing
end
end
end
describe "describe" do
include_context "shared"
it "works too" do
testing
end
end
describe "describe" do
include_examples "shared"
it "works too" do
testing
end
end
