So I have a piece of code that I didn’t write a spec for, and now rcov
is yelling at me about it. The problem is that I’m not really sure how I
should do it.
def build_structure(paths)
unless File::exists?(‘specdoc’)
Dir.mkdir(‘specdoc’)
end
paths.each do |path|
FileUtils.makedirs(“specdoc/#{strip_file(path)}”)
end
end
I want to make sure I have good coverage, but should I just come up with
some random paths, make it make them and then delete them? I just don’t
know how to come at this one to get a good spec. Any ideas?
FileUtils.makedirs(“specdoc/#{strip_file(path)}”)
end
end

first off, specdoc needs to be parameterizable - for instance
def build_structure *args
options = args.pop if args.last.is_a?(Hash)
paths = args.flatten.compact
root = Namespace.root
end
which sets you up to be able to do
Namespace.root = ‘test/specdoc’
also, the method could return the directories created, which helps
testing a good deal.
