In one of my features I have to check to see if a file is created by

external script and then determine if that file contains specific

When /currency exchange rate transfer file should contain rates/ do
found = false
fx_code = 'USD'
File.open(FOREX_XFR_FN).each do |line|
found = true if
/.*fx_target#{fx_code}.*fx_rate(\d+\.\d{4}).*/.match(line)
break if found
end
fail(ArgumentError, "Exchange Rate not found for #{fx_code}") if not
found
end
When /currency exchange rate transfer file should exist/ do
File.open(FOREX_XFR_FN)
end
These work well enough. What I want to know if this is considered a
normal style for testing this sort of specification and if not then
what
is?
Slightly off-topic, but it seems a bit weird to have the word 'should'
in a When step to me. Are these really Then steps?
