Common Mistakes

Using 'it' instead of 'describe' to start the test group.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'describe' inside another describe for examples.

Using 'context' instead of 'it' for examples.

The it block defines an example or test case in RSpec.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'describe' or 'context' instead of 'it' for examples.

Using 'example' which is not a valid RSpec keyword.

The correct keyword for an example block is it. Using 'describe' or 'context' here is incorrect.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a nested context and example in RSpec.

Ruby

RSpec.describe "Calculator" do
  [1] "when dividing" do
    [2] "returns the quotient" do
      expect(10 / 2).to eq(5)
    end
  end
end

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'describe' instead of 'context' for the condition block.

Using 'describe' or 'context' instead of 'it' for the example.

The outer block uses context to describe a situation, and the inner block uses it for the example.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to write a full RSpec test with describe, context, and it blocks.

Ruby

RSpec.[1] "Calculator" do
  [2] "when multiplying" do
    [3] "returns the product" do
      expect(3 * 4).to eq(12)
    end
  end
end

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Mixing up describe and context usage.

Using example which is not a valid keyword.

The top-level group uses describe, the condition uses context, and the test case uses it.
