Just some odd (incomplete) specification file that verifies a module that reads in locations (in a text adventure) described in a DSL. Also includes the location data files.

hierarchical_locations.rb

location :street do
  location :park do
    location :bank do
    end
  end

  location :house do
     location :door do
     end
  end
end

      @location = @locations.first
    end

    it 'returns a single Location' do
      @locations.length.should == 1
