Render_template return true when only part of template name match. Bug?

Testing RSpec
1

I have this code

response.should render_template(:my_messages)

It returns true also if :messages template rendered. I am confused, is
this a bug or expected behavior?

Docs say use strings:

Not sure why symbols are working at all :slight_smile:
