First - read the docs at
http://rubydoc.info/gems/rspec-expectations/RSpec/Matchers:change to
learn how to use the `change` matcher properly. Also look at
http://rubydoc.info/gems/rspec-expectations/RSpec/Matchers:expect so
you'll understand my suggestion below.
Second - you say above "When I create a new session, if there was a
previous session row in the db with user_id = xxx, it should delete it
first, then create a new row." This suggests that you want
Session.count _not_ to change at all:
user = FactoryGirl(:user)
session = FactoryGirl(:session, :user_id => user.id)
expect { session.save! }.not_to change(Session, :count)
