h2. An example

p. Let's test that TheHoff contains various attr_* methods.

class TheHoff

  def initialize
    @hair_style = "curly"
    @smash_hit = "Looking for Freedom"
    @date_of_birth = "July 17, 1952"
  end

  attr_reader :smash_hit, :date_of_birth
  attr_writer :smash_hit

  attr_accessor :hair_style

end

p. Load rspec_attr_extensions in your spec_helper file.

bc. require "spec" require "rspec_attr_extensions"

p. And use the test methods provided by this library to clean up your specs.

require "spec_helper"

describe TheHoff do

  it_should_have_an_attr_reader_for :smash_hit, :date_of_birth
  it_should_have_an_attr_writer_for :smash_hit

  it_should_have_an_attr_accessor_for :hair_style

end
