Ruby's `$stdout` doesn't provide you with what has been written to stdout. It's an IO object that can be written to but not read from. If you want to set an expectation about what has been written to stdout, we have a matcher for that: https://relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-expectations/v/3-3/docs/built-in-matchers/output-matcher HTH, Myron -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "rspec" group.
