RSpec vs Jasmine

A very basic intro to Jasmine tests for those familiar with RSpec

let/before

  let(:post) { Post.new("My Title", "My Content") }

  var post
  
  beforeEach(function() {
    post = new Post("My Title", "My Content")
  })

describe

  describe Post do
  
  end

  describe("Post", function() {
    // setup a post with a before block
  })

it

  it "should have a title" do
    expect(post.title).to eq("My Title")
  end

  it("should have a title", function() {
    expect(post.title).toEqual("My Title")
  })

stub

  before do
    Blog.stub(:add).and_return(true)
  end

  var blog
  
  beforeEach(function() {
    blog = new Blog()
    spyOn(blog, "add").andReturn(true)
  })

be_a

  expect(blog.posts.first).to be_a(Post)

  expect(blog.posts[0]).toEqual(jasmine.any(Post))
