I don't know RSpec that well, but I'd guess before(:all) is run only once in a describe block (and as such torn down only after the block is finished), whereas before(:each) is run before every example (and torn down respectively). So, I guess you'll want to use before(:each) version. Was that it? -- "One day, when he was naughty, Mr Bunnsy looked over the hedge into Farmer Fred's field and it was full of fresh green lettuces. Mr Bunnsy, however, was not full of lettuces. This did not seem fair." -- Terry Pratchett, Mr. Bunnsy Has An Adventure _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
