315 PointsRSpec Deprecation Warnings
I get annoying Deprecation Warnings each time I run my tests. There is no clear method to stop these warnings from appearing that I can see. Does anyone have a solution to stop the warnings?
Deprecation Warnings:
RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup#example is deprecated and will be removed in RSpec 3. There are a few options for what you can use instead:
- rspec-core's DSL methods (
it
,before
,after
,let
,subject
, etc) now yield the example as a block argument, and that is the recommended way to access the current example from those contexts. - The current example is now exposed via
RSpec.current_example
, which is accessible from any context. -
If you can't update the code at this call site (e.g. because it is in an extension gem), you can use this snippet to continue making this method available in RSpec 2.99 and RSpec 3:
RSpec.configure do |c| c.expose_current_running_example_as :example end
(Called from /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.4@rails4/gems/capybara-2.1.0/lib/capybara/rspec.rb:20:in `block (2 levels) in <top (required)>')
