Testing an Independent Mixin With RSpec
Objective: write a spec for the Inventory::Query
mixin.
Note: the mixin is independent of the including class as it does not depend on any instance variables or instance methods.
Original Approach
class InventoryQueryTest
include Inventory::Query
end
subject(:inventory_query) { InventoryQueryTest.new }
Preferred Approach
subject(:inventory_query) { (Class.new { include Inventory::Query }).new }
Advantage
Simpler and avoids polluting the global namespace with a test class.
