That's helpful really. I am going through the Relish doco page by page. So
still couldn't reach to the page you linked. :-) But I got it clear. It seems,
I can change these 2 methods interchangeably. No difference in their use. Both
will run happily :-
RSpec.describe "allow_any_instance_of" do
context "with receive_messages" do
it "stubs multiple methods" do
allow_any_instance_of(Object).to receive_messages(:foo => 'foo', :bar =>
'bar')
o = Object.new
expect(o.foo).to eq('foo')
expect(o.bar).to eq('bar')
end
end
end
and
RSpec.describe "allow_any_instance_of" do
context "with receive_messages" do
it "stubs multiple methods" do
expect_any_instance_of(Object).to receive_messages(:foo => 'foo', :bar
=> 'bar')
o = Object.new
expect(o.foo).to eq('foo')
expect(o.bar).to eq('bar')
end
end
end
Only difference remains on people, who like allow_*, will use this, who don't
like it, will use expect_* ... :-)

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore,
if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not
smart enough to debug it.
