Forum: RSpec Matcher for testing file content.

Hi.

Is there any matcher for test file content, anything like

file("/path/to/file.txt").should contain("File content")
or
file("/path/to/file.txt").content.should == "File content"
or
file_content("/path/to/file.txt").should == "File content"

or something else?

File.read("/path/to/file") will give you a string of the entire
contents of the file.

File.read("/path/to/file").should match "content"
File.read("/path/to/file").should include "content"

etc.

Does that help?

Yes, that certainly did the trick...
I use

File.read("/path/to/file").should == "content"

Thanks.
