class Specification
[source: org/specs/Specification.scala]
abstract class Specification
extends Matchers with SpecificationStructure with AssertFactory
This class is the main class for declaring a new specification
In the context of a specification, you can: Usage: object mySpec extends Specification

A specification is "executed" when it is constructed, then the failures and errors can be collected with the corresponding methods

Direct Known Subclasses:
LiteralSpecification
Values and Variables inherited from SpecificationStructure
description, name, subSpecifications, suts
Values and Variables inherited from ExampleLifeCycle
sequential, example
Method Summary
def assertionsNb : Int
def doAfter (actions : => Any) : Unit
adds an "after" function to the last sut being defined
def doBefore (actions : => Any) : Unit
adds a "before" function to the last sut being defined
def errors : scala.List[java.lang.Throwable]
def fail (m : java.lang.String) : Nothing
Convenience method: adds a new failure to the latest example
Usage: fail("this code should fail anyway")
def failures : scala.List[FailureException]
def pretty : java.lang.String
def skip (m : java.lang.String) : Nothing
Convenience method: adds a new skippedException to the latest example
Usage: skip("this example should be skipped")
def skipped : scala.List[SkippedException]
def usingAfter (afterFunction : () => Unit) : Unit
def usingBefore (beforeFunction : () => Unit) : Unit
