I've opened a pull request with an initial implementation of using `expect` to set normal expectations in addition to block ones:
expect(something).to be_awesome Note that it's not simply the syntax change that's driving the possibility of introducing this. It's the fact that the `should` and `should_not` syntax has occasionally been prone to problems that the `expect` syntax would avoid entirely. It'd be great to get feedback from other RSpec users about this. Here's the pull request: https://github.com/rspec/rspec-expectations/pull/119 Please leave comments there. I don't often have time to keep up with the rspec mailing list so I likely won't see comments here. _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
