Voglio testare la creazione di un nuovo modello, un negozio in questo  
caso.  
Potrei usare cucumber:

Scenario: Create Valid Article  
Given I have no articles  
And I am on the list of articles  
When I follow “New Article”  
And I fill in “Title” with “Spuds”  
And I fill in “Content” with “Delicious potato wedges!”  
And I press “Create”  
Then I should see “New article created.”  
And I should see “Spuds”  
And I should see “Delicious potato wedges!”  
And I should have 1 article

E’ un esempio preso da asciicast.  
Potrei fare lo stesso test con rspec.  
Significa che potrei coprire tutti i test con il solo cucumber?  
In questo caso specifico e’ meglio usare cucumber o rspec?

Il punto di forza di cucumber sono le descrizioni delle feature che  
possono essere “lette” anche dal committente, se non hai bisogno di  
questo probabilmente ti conviene usare solo rspec.
