Methods

public instance

  1. backtrace
  2. filtered_description

Attributes

description [R] This is the description passed to the describe() method or any of its aliases
examples [R] A collection of ExampleGroupProxy objects, one for each example declared in this group.
location [R] The file and line number at which the proxied example group was declared. This is extracted from caller, and is therefore formatted as an individual line in a backtrace.
nested_descriptions [R] Used by Spec::Runner::Formatter::NestedTextFormatter to access the description of each example group in a nested group separately.
options [R] Optional hash passed to the example group declaration. Note that RSpec uses this hash internally and reserves the keys :location and :scope for its own use (and removes them from this hash)

          *nested_descriptions.collect do |description|
            description =~ regexp ? description.gsub($1, "") : description
          end
