Transpec is a tool for converting your specs to the latest RSpec syntax with static and dynamic code analysis.
With Transpec you can upgrade your RSpec 2 specs to RSpec 3 in no time.
It supports conversions for almost all of the RSpec 3 changes – not only the expect
syntax.
Also, you can use it on your RSpec 2 project even if you're not going to upgrade it to RSpec 3 for now.
Check out the following posts for the new RSpec syntax and the changes in RSpec 3:
If you are going to use Transpec in the upgrade process to RSpec 3, read the RSpec official guide:
Here's an example spec:
describe Account do
subject(:account) { Account.new(logger) }
let(:logger) { mock('logger') }
describe '#balance' do
context 'initially' do
it 'is zero' do
account.balance.should == 0
end
end
end
describe '#close' do
it 'logs an account closed message' do
logger.should_receive(:account_closed).with(account)
account.close
end
end
describe '#renew' do
context 'when the account is not closed' do
before do
account.stub(:closed?).and_return(false)
end
it 'does not raise error' do
lambda { account.renew }.should_not raise_error(Account::RenewalError)
end
end
end
end
Transpec would convert it to the following form:
describe Account do
subject(:account) { Account.new(logger) }
let(:logger) { double('logger') }
describe '#balance' do
context 'initially' do
it 'is zero' do
expect(account.balance).to eq(0)
end
end
end
describe '#close' do
it 'logs an account closed message' do
expect(logger).to receive(:account_closed).with(account)
account.close
end
end
describe '#renew' do
context 'when the account is not closed' do
before do
allow(account).to receive(:closed?).and_return(false)
end
it 'does not raise error' do
expect { account.renew }.not_to raise_error
end
end
end
end
You can see actual conversion examples below:

- https://github.com/yujinakayama/twitter/commit/transpec-demo
Simply install transpec
with gem
command:
$ gem install transpec
Normally you don't need to add transpec
to your Gemfile
or *.gemspec
since this isn't a tool to be used daily.
Before converting your specs:
- Make sure your project has
rspec
gem dependency 2.14 or later. If not, change yourGemfile
or*.gemspec
to do so. - Run
rspec
and check if all the specs pass. - Ensure the Git repository is clean. (You don't want to mix up your changes and Transpec's changes, do you?)
Then, run transpec
in the project root directory:
$ cd some-project
$ transpec
This will run the specs, convert them, and overwrite all spec files in the spec
directory.
After the conversion, run rspec
again and check whether everything is still green:
$ bundle exec rspec
If it's green, commit the changes with an auto-generated message that describes the conversion summary and helps your team members to understand the new syntax:
$ git commit -aeF .git/COMMIT_EDITMSG
And you are done!
You can pass transpec
arbitrary paths to convert:
# You always need to be in the project root directory
$ cd some-project
# Convert only files in `features` directory
$ transpec features
# Convert only files in `spec/foo` and `spec/bar` directory
$ transpec spec/foo spec/bar
# Convert only `spec/baz_spec.rb`
$ transpec spec/baz_spec.rb
Note that the current working directory always needs to be the project root directory, so that Transpec can know where the root is.
You can disable specific conversions that are enabled by default with -k/--keep
option,
and enable conversions that are disabled by default with the -v/--convert
option.
If you are willing to try the latest and modern syntax, run the following on RSpec 3:
$ transpec --convert example_group,hook_scope
See -k/--keep
and -v/--convert
for more details.
Though Transpec ships with sensible defaults that essentially conform to the RSpec 3 defaults, you can customize the conversion behavior.
Force processing even if the current Git repository is not clean.
$ git status --short
M spec/spec_helper.rb
$ transpec
The current Git repository is not clean. Aborting. If you want to proceed forcibly, use -f/--force option.
$ transpec --force
Copying project for dynamic analysis...
Running dynamic analysis with command "bundle exec rspec"...
Specify a command to run your specs which is used for dynamic analysis.
Transpec needs to run your specs in a copied project directory for dynamic analysis.
If your project requires some special setup or commands to run specs, use this option.
bundle exec rspec
is used by default.
Note that the command to run dynamic analysis does not affect to the files or specs to be converted.
This means that even if you specify a command that only runs a subset of the files in your spec suite or a subset of the specs in a file, every spec will be converted.
For this reason, it's recommended to provide a command that runs full spec suite to -c/--rspec-command
.
If you want to convert only a subset of the files in a spec suite, pass the paths to transpec
.
See Advanced Usage for more details.
You can change the temporary directory that the your project will be copied
by specifying the TMPDIR
environment variable.
$ transpec --rspec-command "./special_setup.sh && bundle exec rspec"
Keep specific syntaxes by disabling conversions.
$ transpec --keep should_receive,stub
Note that some syntaxes are available only if your project's RSpec is specific version or later. If they are unavailable, conversions for such syntaxes will be disabled automatically.
Type | Target Syntax | Converted Syntax |
---|---|---|
should |
obj.should matcher |
expect(obj).to matcher |
oneliner |
it { should ... } |
it { is_expected.to ... } |
should_receive |
obj.should_receive(:message) |
expect(obj).to receive(:message) |
stub |
obj.stub(:message) |
allow(obj).to receive(:message) |
have_items |
expect(obj).to have(n).items |
expect(obj.size).to eq(n) |
its |
its(:attr) { } |
describe '#attr' { subject { }; it { } } |
pending |
pending 'is an example' { } |
skip 'is an example' { } |
deprecated |
All other deprecated syntaxes | Latest syntaxes |
See Supported Conversions for more details.
Enable specific conversions that are disabled by default.
$ transpec --convert example_group
Most of these target syntaxes are not deprecated in both RSpec 2 and 3, but the new syntaxes provide more modern and clear ways.
Type | Target Syntax | Converted Syntax |
---|---|---|
example_group |
describe 'something' { } |
RSpec.describe 'something' { } |
hook_scope |
before(:all) { } |
before(:context) { } |
stub_with_hash |
obj.stub(:message => value) |
allow(obj).to receive(:message).and_return(value) |
Note: Specifying stub_with_hash
enables conversion of obj.stub(:message => value)
to allow(obj).to receive(:message).and_return(value)
when allow(obj).to receive_messages(:message => value)
is unavailable (prior to RSpec 3.0),
and it will be converted to multiple statements if the hash includes multiple pairs.
If your project's RSpec is 3.0 or later, it will be converted to receive_messages(:message => value)
regardless of this option.
See Supported Conversions - Method stubs with a hash argument for more details.
Convert specific syntaxes while keeping all other syntaxes.
This option would be useful when you want to convert a non-deprecated syntax
while keeping another syntax that would be converted by default.
(e.g. converting the hook scope aliases while keeping the one-liner should
).
$ transpec --convert-only example_group,hook_scope
Skip dynamic analysis and convert with only static analysis. The use of this option is basically discouraged since it significantly decreases the overall conversion accuracy.
This would be useful only if your spec suite takes really long (like an hour) to run and you prefer a combination of the rough but fast conversion by Transpec and manual fixes after that.
Specify a negative form of to
which is used in the expect
syntax.
Either not_to
or to_not
.
not_to
is used by default.
$ transpec --negative-form to_not
Specify a boolean matcher type which be_true
and be_false
will be converted to.
Any of truthy,falsey
, truthy,falsy
or true,false
can be specified.
truthy,falsey
is used by default.
$ transpec --boolean-matcher true,false
See Supported Conversions - Boolean matchers for more details.
Add explicit spec :type
metadata to example groups in a project using rspec-rails.
See Supported Conversions - Implicit spec types in rspec-rails for more details.
Suppress yielding receiver instances to any_instance
implementation blocks as the first block argument.
By default in RSpec 3, any_instance
implementation blocks will be yielded the receiving
instance as the first block argument, and by default Transpec converts specs by adding instance arguments to the blocks so that they conform to the behavior of RSpec 3.
Specifying this option suppresses the conversion and keeps them compatible with RSpec 2.
Note that this is not same as --keep deprecated
since this configures yield_receiver_to_any_instance_implementation_blocks
with RSpec.configure
.
See Supported Conversions - any_instance
implementation blocks for more details.
Suppress parenthesizing arguments of matchers when converting
should
with operator matcher to expect
with non-operator matcher
(the expect
syntax does not directly support the operator matchers).
Note that it will be parenthesized even if this option is specified
when parentheses are necessary to keep the meaning of the expression.
describe 'original spec' do
it 'is an example' do
1.should == 1
2.should > 1
'string'.should =~ /^str/
[1, 2, 3].should =~ [2, 1, 3]
{ key: value }.should == { key: value }
end
end
describe 'converted spec' do
it 'is an example' do
expect(1).to eq(1)
expect(2).to be > 1
expect('string').to match(/^str/)
expect([1, 2, 3]).to match_array([2, 1, 3])
expect({ key: value }).to eq({ key: value })
end
end
describe 'converted spec with -p/--no-parens-matcher-arg option' do
it 'is an example' do
expect(1).to eq 1
expect(2).to be > 1
expect('string').to match /^str/
expect([1, 2, 3]).to match_array [2, 1, 3]
# With non-operator method, the parentheses are always required
# to prevent the hash from being interpreted as a block.
expect({ key: value }).to eq({ key: value })
end
end
You might see the following warning while conversion:
Cannot convert #should into #expect since #expect is not available in the context.
spec/awesome_spec.rb:4: 1.should == 1
This message would be shown with specs like:
describe '#should that cannot be converted to #expect' do
class MyAwesomeTestRunner
def run
1.should == 1
end
end
it 'is 1' do
test_runner = MyAwesomeTestRunner.new
test_runner.run
end
end
should
is defined onBasicObject
class, so you can useshould
everywhere.expect
is defined onRSpec::Matchers
module which is included byRSpec::Core::ExampleGroup
class, so you can useexpect
only whereself
is an instance ofRSpec::Core::ExampleGroup
(i.e. init
blocks,:each
hook blocks or included module methods) or other classes that explicitly includeRSpec::Matchers
.
With the above example, in the context of 1.should == 1
, the self
is an instance of MyAwesomeTestRunner
.
Transpec tracks contexts and skips conversion if the syntax cannot be converted in a case like this.
Include or extend any of the following module to make RSpec syntax available in the context:
RSpec::Matchers
forexpect(obj).to some_matcher
RSpec::Mocks::ExampleMethods
forexpect/allow(obj).to receive(:message)
class MyAwesomeTestRunner
include RSpec::Matchers
def run
1.should == 1
end
end
Then run transpec
again.
There are two types of should
:
describe 'the monkey-patched should' do
subject { [] }
it 'is empty' do
subject.should be_empty
# ^^^^^^ BasicObject#should in RSpec 2.11 or later,
# or Kernel#should prior to RSpec 2.11.
end
end
describe 'the one-liner should' do
subject { [] }
it { should be_empty }
# ^^^^^^ RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup#should
end
The monkey-patched obj.should
:
- Is defined on
BasicObject
(orKernel
) and provided byrspec-expectations
gem. - Is deprecated in RSpec 3.
- Has the issue with delegate/proxy objects.
- There's the alternative syntax
expect(obj).to
since RSpec 2.11.
The one-liner (implicit receiver) should
:
- Is defined on
RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup
and provided byrspec-core
gem. - Is not deprecated in RSpec 3.
- Does not have the issue with delegate/proxy objects.
- There's the alternative syntax
is_expected.to
since RSpec 2.99.beta2.
- Standard expectations
- One-liner expectations

Targets:
obj.should matcher
obj.should_not matcher
Will be converted to:
expect(obj).to matcher

expect(obj).to_not matcher # with `--negative-form to_not`
- This conversion can be disabled by:
--keep should
- Deprecation: deprecated since RSpec 3.0
- See also: RSpec's New Expectation Syntax
This conversion is available only if your project's RSpec is 2.99.0.beta2 or later.
Targets:
it { should matcher }
it { should_not matcher }
Will be converted to:
it { is_expected.to matcher }
it { is_expected.not_to matcher }
it { is_expected.to_not matcher } # with `--negative-form to_not`
is_expected.to
is designed for the consistency with the expect
syntax.
However the one-liner should
is still not deprecated in RSpec 3.0
and available even if the should
syntax is
disabled with RSpec.configure
.
So if you think is_expected.to
is verbose,
feel free to disable this conversion and continue using the one-liner should
.
See Two Types of should
also.

Targets:
1.should == 1
1.should < 2
Integer.should === 1
'string'.should =~ /^str/
[1, 2, 3].should =~ [2, 1, 3]
Will be converted to:
expect(1).to eq(1)
expect(1).to be < 2
expect(Integer).to be === 1
expect('string').to match(/^str/)
expect([1, 2, 3]).to match_array([2, 1, 3])
This conversion is combined with the conversion of standard expectations and cannot be disabled separately because the expect
syntax does not directly support the operator matchers.
This conversion is available only if your project's RSpec is 2.99.0.beta1 or later.
Targets:
expect(obj).to be_true
expect(obj).to be_false
Will be converted to:
expect(obj).to be_truthy
expect(obj).to be_falsey
# With `--boolean-matcher truthy,falsy`
# be_falsy is just an alias of be_falsey.
expect(obj).to be_truthy
expect(obj).to be_falsy
# With `--boolean-matcher true,false`
expect(obj).to be true
expect(obj).to be false
be_true
matcher passes if expectation subject is truthy in conditional semantics. (i.e. all objects exceptfalse
andnil
)be_false
matcher passes if expectation subject is falsey in conditional semantics. (i.e.false
ornil
)be_truthy
andbe_falsey
matchers are renamed version ofbe_true
andbe_false
and their behaviors are same.be true
andbe false
are not new things. These are combinations ofbe
matcher and boolean literals. These pass if expectation subject is exactly equal to boolean value.
So, converting be_true
/be_false
to be_truthy
/be_falsey
never breaks your specs and this is Transpec's default. If you are willing to test boolean values strictly, you can convert them to be true
/be false
with --boolean-matcher true,false
option. Note that this may break your specs if your application code don't return exact boolean values.

This conversion will be disabled automatically if rspec-collection_matchers
is loaded in your spec.
Targets:
expect(collection).to have(3).items
expect(collection).to have_exactly(3).items
expect(collection).to have_at_least(3).items
expect(collection).to have_at_most(3).items
collection.should have(3).items
# Assume `team` responds to #players.
expect(team).to have(3).players
# Assume #players is a private method.
expect(team).to have(3).players
# Validation expectations in rspec-rails.
expect(model).to have(2).errors_on(:name)
Will be converted to:
expect(collection.size).to eq(3)
expect(collection.size).to eq(3)
expect(collection.size).to be >= 3
expect(collection.size).to be <= 3
# With `--keep should`
collection.size.should == 3
expect(team.players.size).to eq(3)
# have(n).items matcher invokes #players even if it's a private method.
expect(team.send(:players).size).to eq(3)
# Conversion of `have(n).errors_on(:attr)` is not supported.
expect(model).to have(2).errors_on(:name)
There's an option to continue using have(n).items
matcher with rspec-collection_matchers which is a gem extracted from rspec-expectations
.
If you choose to do so, disable this conversion by either:
- Specify
--keep have_items
option manually. - Require
rspec-collection_matchers
in your spec so that Transpec automatically disables this conversion.
The idiom expect(model).to have(n).errors_on(:attr)
in rspec-rails 2 consists of
have(n).items
matcher and a monkey-patch ActiveModel::Validations#errors_on
.
In RSpec 2 the monkey-patch was provided by rspec-rails,
but in RSpec 3 it's extracted to rspec-collection_matchers along with have(n).items
matcher.
So if you convert it to expect(model.errors_on(:attr).size).to eq(2)
without rspec-collection_matchers,
it fails with error undefined method 'error_on' for #<Model ...>
.
Technically it can be converted to:
model.valid?
expect(model.errors[:attr].size).to eq(n)
However currently Transpec doesn't support this conversion since this is probably not what most people want. So using rspec-collection_matchers gem is recommended for now.

So, if you're going to use Transpec in the upgrade path to RSpec 3, you may need to follow these steps:
- Upgrade to RSpec 2.99
- Run
transpec
(at this timeobj.stub(:message => value)
won't be converted) - Upgrade to RSpec 3.0
- Run
transpec
again to convertobj.stub(:message => value)
Or if you're going to stay RSpec 2.14 for now but want to convert all stub
to allow
statements, run transpec
with --convert stub_with_hash
option. Note that once the conversion is done, multiple statements cannot be merged into a receive_messages

Here's an excerpt from the warning for pending examples in RSpec 2.99:
The semantics of
RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup#pending
are changing in RSpec 3. In RSpec 2.x, it caused the example to be skipped. In RSpec 3, the example will still be run but is expected to fail, and will be marked as a failure (rather than as pending) if the example passes, just like howpending
with a block from within an example already works.To keep the same skip semantics, change
pending
toskip
. Otherwise, if you want the new RSpec 3 behavior, you can safely ignore this warning and continue to upgrade to RSpec 3 without addressing it.

Here's an excerpt from the warning for RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup#example

in RSpec 2.99:
RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup#example
is deprecated and will be removed in RSpec 3. There are a few options for what you can use instead:
rspec-core
's DSL methods (it
,before
,after
,let
,subject
, etc) now yield the example as a block argument, and that is the recommended way to access the current example from those contexts.- The current example is now exposed via
RSpec.current_example
, which is accessible from any context.- If you can't update the code at this call site (e.g. because it is in an extension gem), you can use this snippet to continue making this method available in RSpec 2.99 and RSpec 3:
RSpec.configure do |c| c.expose_current_running_example_as :example end
