Q: Best practice for mocks expectations?

[alexandru-calinoiu]

Hi,

I was wondering what is the best practice for mocks expectations:

Instead of:

it 'will receive create' do
    VendorSchedulable.should_receive(:create).with(:some, :other)
    CreateVendorSchedule.create(:some, :other)
end

I am wirting

before do
  VendorSchedulable.stub(:create)
  CreateVendorSchedule.create(42, 'deal-43')
end

it { expect(VendorSchedulable).to have_received(:create) }

But I don't really like it { expect

You still can write:

it 'will receive create' do
  expect(VendorSchedulable).to have_received(:create)
end

@jandudulski I guess this is an option also, can a best practice be extracted out of this scenario?
