Timecop is fun, but you don't need a whole gem for that. Just use
Time.stub(:now), e.g.
describe "time" do
before do
@fake_time = Time.now
Time.stub(:now) { @fake_time }
end
it "is equal" do
Time.now.should == Time.now # now it passes
end
it "is close" do
Time.now.should be_within(0.1).of(Time.now)
end
end
It's easy to move @fake_time around in the middle of a spec, too, to
simulate time passing or to zap over to e.g. the moment when daylight
savings happens.
