2.99.0.beta2 / 2014-02-17

full changelog

Enhancements:

• Add is_expected for one-liners that read well with the
  expect-based syntax. is_expected is simply defined as
  expect(subject) and can be used in an expression like:
  it { is_expected.to read_well }. (Myron Marston)
• Backport skip from RSpec 3, which acts like pending did in RSpec 2
  when not given a block, since the behavior of pending is changing in
  RSpec 3. (Xavier Shay)

Deprecations:

• Deprecate inexact mock_with config options. RSpec 3 will only support
  the exact symbols :rspec, :mocha, :flexmock, :rr or :nothing
  (or any module that implements the adapter interface). RSpec 2 did
  fuzzy matching but this will not be supported going forward.
  (Myron Marston)
• Deprecate show_failures_in_pending_blocks config option. To achieve
  the same behavior as the option enabled, you can use a custom
  formatter instead. (Xavier Shay)
• Add a deprecation warning for the fact that the behavior of pending
  is changing in RSpec 3 -- rather than skipping the example (as it did
  in 2.x when no block was provided), it will run the example and mark
  it as failed if no exception is raised. Use skip instead to preserve
  the old behavior. (Xavier Shay)
• Deprecate 's', 'n', 'spec' and 'nested' as aliases for documentation
  formatter. (Jon Rowe)
• Deprecate RSpec::Core::Reporter#abort in favor of
  RSpec::Core::Reporter#finish. (Jon Rowe)

Bug Fixes:

• Fix failure (undefined method path) in end-of-run summary
  when raise_errors_for_deprecations! is configured. (Myron Marston)
• Fix issue were overridding spec ordering from the command line wasn't
  fully recognised interally. (Jon Rowe)
