+
+Covering rspec-given, minitest-given, and given-core, version 3.0.0.beta.1.
+
+rspec-given and minitest-given are extensions to your favorite testing
+framework to allow Given/When/Then notation when writing specs.
+
+# Why Given/When/Then
+
+RSpec has done a great job of making specifications more readable for
+humans. However, I really like the given/when/then nature of Cucumber
+stories and would like to follow the same structure in my unit tests.
+rspec-given (and now minitest-given) allows a simple given/when/then
+structure RSpec specifications.
+
+## Status
+
+* rspec-given is ready for production use.
+* minitest-given is experimental.
+
+### RSpec/Given
+
+The rspec-given gem is the original given/when/then extension for
+RSpec. It now depends on a given_core gem for the basic functionality
+and then adds the RSpec specific code.
+
+* rspec-given now requires RSpec version 2.12 or better.
+
+### Minitest/Given
+
+A new minitest-given gem allows Given/When/Then notation directly in
+Minitest::Spec specifications.
+
+To use minitest-given, just place the following require at the top of
+the file (or in a convenient spec_helper).
+
+```ruby
+require 'minitest/given'
+```
+
+All the features of rspec-given are available in minitest-given.
+
+When switching from RSpec/Given to Minitest/Given, here are some
+things to watch out for:
+
+* You need to use Minitest version 4.3 or better (yes, Minitest 5.x
+  should work as well).
+
+* Minitest/Given adds the missing "context" block to Minitest::Spec.
+
+* Only one before block is allowed in any given Minitest::Spec
+  describe block. This doesn't effect the number of Givens you are
+  allowed to use, but it may surprise if you are use to RSpec.
+
+### Auto Selecting
+
+If you use natural assertions exclusively in your specs, it's quite
+possible to write specs that run under both RSpec and Minitest::Spec.
+
+Use this at the start of your spec file:
+
+```ruby
+if defined?(RSpec)
+  require 'rspec/given'
+else
+  require 'minitest/autorun'
+  require 'minitest/given'
+end
+```
+
+See
+[stack_spec.rb](https://github.com/jimweirich/rspec-given/blob/minispec/examples/stack/stack_spec.rb)
+and
+[example_helper.rb](https://github.com/jimweirich/rspec-given/blob/minispec/examples/example_helper.rb)

+require 'spec_helper'
+require 'stack'
+
+describe Stack do
+  def stack_with(initial_contents)
+    stack = Stack.new

+  end

+  Invariant { stack.empty? == (stack.depth == 0) }
+
+  context "with no items" do
+    Given(:initial_contents) { [] }
+    Then { stack.depth == 0 }
+
+    context "when pushing" do
+      When { stack.push(:an_item) }
+
+      Then { stack.depth == 1 }
+      Then { stack.top == :an_item }
+    end
+
+    context "when popping" do
+      When(:result) { stack.pop }
+      Then { result == Failure(Stack::UnderflowError, /empty/) }
+    end
+  end
+
+  context "with one item" do
+    Given(:initial_contents) { [:an_item] }
+
+    context "when popping" do
+      When(:pop_result) { stack.pop }
+
+      Then { pop_result == :an_item }
+      Then { stack.depth == 0 }
+    end
+  end
+
+  context "with several items" do
+    Given(:initial_contents) { [:second_item, :top_item] }
+    Given!(:original_depth) { stack.depth }
+
+    context "when pushing" do
+      When { stack.push(:new_item) }
+
+      Then { stack.top == :new_item }
+      Then { stack.depth == original_depth + 1 }
+    end
+
+    context "when popping" do
+      When(:pop_result) { stack.pop }
+
+      Then { pop_result == :top_item }
+      Then { stack.top == :second_item }
+      Then { stack.depth == original_depth - 1 }
+    end
+  end
+end
+```
+
+Let's talk about the individual statements used in the Given
+framework.
+
+### Given
+
+The _Given_ section specifies a starting point, a set of preconditions
+that must be true before the code under test is allowed to be run.  In
+standard test frameworks the preconditions are established with a
+combination of setup methods (or :before actions in RSpec) and code in
+the test.
+
+In the example code above the preconditions are started with _Given_
+statements.  A top level _Given_ (that applies to the entire describe
+block) says that one of the preconditions is that there is a stack
+with some initial contents.
+
+Note that initial contents are not specified in the top level describe
+block, but are given in each of the nested contexts.  By pushing the
+definition of "initial_contents" into the nested contexts, we can vary
+them as needed for that particular context.
+
+A precondition in the form "Given(:var) {...}" creates an accessor
+method named "var".  The accessor is lazily initialized by the code
+block.  If you want a non-lazy given, use "Given!(:var) {...}".
+
+A precondition in the form "Given {...}" just executes the code block
+for side effects.  Since there is no accessor, the code block is
+executed immediately (i.e. no lazy evaluation).
+
+The preconditions are run in order of definition.  Nested contexts
+will inherit the preconditions from the enclosing context, with outer
+preconditions running before inner preconditions.
+
+#### Given examples:
+
+```ruby
+    Given(:stack) { Stack.new }
+```
+
+The block for the given clause is lazily run and its value bound to
+'stack' if 'stack' is ever referenced in the test.
+The first reference to 'stack' in the specification will cause the
+code block to execute. Futher references to 'stack' will reuse the
+previously generated value.
+
+```ruby
+    Given!(:original_size) { stack.size }
+```
+
+The code block is run unconditionally once before each test and the
+value of the block is bound to 'original_size'.  This form is useful
+when you want to record the value of something that might be affected
+by the When code.
+
+```ruby
+    Given { stack.clear }
+```
+
+The block for the given clause is run unconditionally once before each
+test. This form of given is used for code that is executed for side
+effects.
+
+### When
+
+The _When_ clause specifies the code to be tested ... oops, excuse me
+... specified.  After the preconditions in the given section are met,
+the when code block is run.
+
+In general there should not be more than one _When_ clause for a given
+direct context. However, a _When_ in an outer context will be run
+after all the _Givens_ but before the inner _When_. You can think of
+an outer _When_ as setting up additional given state for the inner
+_When_.
+
+E.g.
+
+```ruby
+    context "outer context" do
+      When { code specified in the outer context }
+      Then { assert something about the outer context }
+
+      context "inner context" do
+
+        # At this point, the _When_ of the outer context
+        # should be treated as a _Given_ of the inner context
+
+        When { code specified in the inner context }
+        Then { assert something about the inner context }
+      end
+    end
+```
+
+#### When examples:
+
+```ruby
+    When { stack.push(:item) }
+```
+
+The code block is executed once per test.  The effect of the _When{}_
+block is very similar to _Given{}_.  However, When is used to identify
+the particular code that is being specified in the current context or
+describe block.
+
+```ruby
+    When(:result) { stack.pop }
+```
+
+The code block is executed once per test and the value of the code
+block is bound to 'result'.  Use this form when the code under test
+returns a value that you wish to interrogate in the _Then_ code.
+
+If an exception occurs during the execution of the block for the When
+clause, the exception is caught and a failure object is bound to
+'result'. The failure can be checked in a then block with the
+'have_failed' matcher.
+
+The failure object will rethrow the captured exception if anything
+other than have_failed matcher is used on the failure object.
+
+For example, if the stack is empty when it is popped, then it is
+reasonable for pop to raise an UnderflowError. This is how you might
+specify that behavior:
+
+```ruby
+    When(:result) { stack.pop }
+    Then { result.should have_failed(UnderflowError, /empty/) }
+```
+
+Note that the arguments to the 'have_failed' matcher are the same as
+those given to the standard RSpec matcher 'raise_error'.
+
+### Then
+
+The _Then_ clauses are the postconditions of the specification. These
+then conditions must be true after the code under test (the _When_
+clause) is run.
+
+The code in the block of a _Then_ clause should be a single _should_
+assertion. Code in _Then_ clauses should not have any side effects.
+
+Let me repeat that: <b>_Then_ clauses should not have any side
+effects!</b> _Then_ clauses with side effects are erroneous. _Then_
+clauses need to be idempotent, so that running them once, twice, a
+hundred times, or never does not change the state of the program. (The
+same is true of _And_ and _Invariant_ clauses).
+
+In RSpec terms, a _Then_ clause forms a RSpec Example that runs in the
+context of an Example Group (defined by a describe or context clause).
+
+Each Example Group must have at least one _Then_ clause, otherwise
+there will be no examples to be run for that group. If all the
+assertions in an example group are done via Invariants, then the group
+should use an empty _Then_ clause, like this:
+
+```ruby
+    Then { }
+```
+
+#### Then examples:
+
+```ruby
+    Then { stack.empty? }
+```
+
+After the related block for the _When_ clause is run, the stack should
+be empty. If it is not empty, the test will fail.
+
+### And
+
+The _And_ clause is similar to _Then_, but does not form its own RSpec
+example. This means that _And_ clauses reuse the setup from a sibling
+_Then_ clause. Using a single _Then_ and multiple _And_ clauses in an
+example group means the setup for that group is run only once (for the
+_Then_ clause) and reused for all the _And_ clauses. This can be a
+significant speed savings where the setup for an example group is
+expensive.
+
+Some things to keep in mind about _And_ clauses:
+
+* There must be at least one _Then_ in the example group and it must
+  be declared before the _And_ clauses. Forgetting the _Then_ clause
+  is an error.
+
+* The code in the _And_ clause is run immediately after the first
+  (executed) _Then_ of an example group.
+
+* An assertion failure in a _Then_ clause or an _And_ clause will
+  cause all the subsequent _And_ clauses to be skipped.
+
+* Since _And_ clauses do not form their own RSpec examples, they are
+  not represented in the formatted output of RSpec. That means _And_
+  clauses do not produce dots in the Progress format, nor do they
+  appear in the documentation, html or textmate formats (options
+  -fhtml, -fdoc, or -ftextmate).
+
+* Like _Then_ clauses, _And_ clauses must be idempotent. That means
+  they should not execute any code that changes global program state.
+  (See the section on the _Then_ clause).
+
+The choice to use an _And_ clause is primarily a speed consideration.
+If an example group has expensive setup and there are a lot of _Then_
+clauses, then choosing to make some of the _Then_ clauses into _And_
+clauses will speed up the spec. Otherwise it is probably better to
+stick with _Then_ clauses.
+
+#### Then/And examples:
+
+```ruby
+  Then { pop_result == :top_item }           # Required
+  And  { stack.top == :second_item }         # No Setup rerun
+  And  { stack.depth == original_depth - 1 } # ... for these
+```
+
+### Invariant
+
+The _Invariant_ clause is a new idea that doesn't have an analog in
+RSpec or Test::Unit. The invariant allows you specify things that must
+always be true in the scope of the invariant. In the stack example, the method
+<tt>empty?</tt> is defined in term of <tt>size</tt>.
+
+```ruby
+  Invariant { stack.empty? == (stack.depth == 0) }
+```
+
+This invariant states that <code>empty?</code> is true if and only if
+the stack depth is zero, and that assertion is checked at every _Then_
+clause that is in the same scope.
+
+You can conceptually think of an _Invariant_ clause as a _Then_ block
+that automatically gets added to every _Then_ within its scope.
+Invariants nested within a context only apply to the _Then_ clauses
+that are in the scope of that context.
+
+Invariants that reference a _Given_ precondition accessor must only be
+used in contexts that define that accessor.
+
+Notes:
+
+* Since Invariants do not form their own RSpec example, they are not
+  represented in the RSpec formatted output (e.g. the '--format html'
+  option).
+
+## Execution Ordering
+
+When running the test for a specific _Then_ clause, the following will
+be true:
+
+* The non-lazy _Given_ clauses will be run in the order that they are
+  specified, from the outermost scope to the innermost scope
+  containing the _Then_. (The lazy _Given_ clauses will be run upon
+  demand).
+
+* All of the _Given_ clauses in all of the relevant scopes will run
+  before the first (outermost) _When_ clause in those same scopes.
+  That means that the _When_ code can assume that the givens have been
+  established, even if the givens are in a more nested scope than the
+  When.
+
+* _When_ clauses and RSpec _before_ blocks will be executed in the
+  order that they are specified, from the outermost block to the
+  innermost block. This makes _before_ blocks an excellent choice when
+  writing narrative tests to specify actions that happen between the
+  "whens" of a narrative-style test.
+
+Note that the ordering between _Given_ clauses and _before_ blocks are
+not strongly specified. Hoisting a _When_ clause out of an inner scope
+to an outer scope may change the order of execution between related
+_Given_ clauses and any _before_ blocks (hoisting the _When_ clause
+might cause the related _Given_ clauses to possibly run earlier).
+Because of this, do not split order dependent code between _Given_
+clauses and _before_ blocks.
+
+## Natural Assertions
+
+RSpec/Given now supports the use of "natural assertions" in _Then_,
+_And_, and _Invariant_ blocks. Natural assertions are just Ruby
+conditionals, without the _should_ or _expect_ methods that RSpec
+provides. Here are the Then/And examples showing natural assertions:
+
+### Using Natural Assertions
+
+```ruby
+  Then { stack.top == :second_item }
+  Then { stack.depth == original_depth - 1 }
+  Then { result == Failure(Stack::UnderflowError, /empty/) }
+```
+
+### Using RSpec expect().to
+
+```ruby
+  Then { expect(stack.top).to eq(:second_item) }
+  Then { expect(stack.depth).to eq(original_depth - 1) }
+  Then { expect(result).to have_failed(Stack::UnderflowError, /empty/) }
+```
+
+### Using Minitest asserts
+
+```ruby
+  Then { assert_equal :second_item, stack.top }
+  Then { assert_equal original_depth - 1, stack.depth }
+  Then {
+    assert_raises(Stack::UnderflowError, /empty/) do
+      result.call()
+    end
+  }
+```
+
+### Using Minitest expectations
+
+```ruby
+  Then { stack.top.must_equal :second_item }
+  Then { stack.depth.must_equal original_depth - 1}
+  Then { result.must_raise(Stack::UnderflowError, /empty/) }
+```
+
+### Disabling Natural Assertions
+
+Natural assertions may be disabled, either globally or on a per
+context basis. See the **configuration** section below to see how to
+disable natural assertions project wide.
+
+Here's a heads up: If you use natural assertions, but configure Given
+to disable them, then all your specs will mysteriously pass. This is
+why the **red** part of _Red/Green/Refactor_ is so important.
+
+### Failure Messages with Natural Assertions
+
+Since natural assertions do not depend upon matchers, you don't get
+customized error messages from them. What you _do_ get is a complete
+analsysis of the expression that failed.
+
+For example, given the following failing specification:
+
+```ruby
+  Given.use_natural_assertions
+
+  describe "Natural Assertions" do
+    Given(:foo) { 1 }
+    Given(:bar) { 2 }
+    Then { foo + bar == 2 }
+  end
+```
+
+You would get:
+
+```
+  1) Natural Assertions
+     Failure/Error: Then { foo + bar == 2 }
+       Then expression failed at /Users/jim/working/git/rspec-given/examples/failing/sample_spec.rb:6
+       expected: 3
+       to equal: 2
+         false   <- foo + bar == 2
+         3       <- foo + bar
+         1       <- foo
+         2       <- bar
+     # ./examples/failing/sample_spec.rb:6:in `block in Then'
+```
+
+Notice how the failing expression "<code>foo+bar == 2</code>" was
+broken down into subexpressions and values for each subexpression.
+This gives you all the information you need to figure out exactly what
+part of the expression is causing the failure.
+
+Natural assertions will give additional information (e.g. "expected:
+3 to equal: 2") for top level expressions involving any of the
+comparison operators (==, !=, <, <=, >, >=) or matching operators (=~,
+!~).
+
+### Checking for exceptions with Natural Assertions
+
+If you wish to see if the result of a _When_ clause is an exception,
+you can use the following:
+
+```ruby
+    When(:result) { stack.pop }
+    Then { result == Failure(UnderflowError, /empty/) }
+```
+
+The <code>Failure()</code> method accepts the same arguments as
+<code>have_failed</code> and <code>raise_error</code>.
+
+### Caveats on Natural Assertions
+
+Keep the following in mind when using natural assertions.
+
+* Only a single expression/assertion per _Then_. The single expression
+  of the _Then_ block will be considered when determining pass/fail
+  for the assertion. If you _want_ to express a complex condition for
+  the _Then_, you need to use ||, && or some other logical operation
+  to join the conditions into a single expression (and the failure
+  message will break down the values for each part).
+
+* Then clauses need be **idempotent**. This is true in general, but it
+  is particularly important for natural assertions to obey this
+  restriction. This means that assertions in a Then clause should not
+  change anything. Since the Natural Assertion error message contains
+  the values of all the subexpressions, the expression and its
+  subexpressions will be evaluated multiple times. If the Then clause
+  is not idempotent, you will get changing answers as the
+  subexpressions are evaluated.
+
+That last point is important. If you write code like this:
+
+```ruby
+  # DO NOT WRITE CODE LIKE THIS
+  context "Incorrect non-idempotent conditions" do
+    Given(:ary) { [1, 2, 3] }
+    Then { ary.delete(1) == nil }
+  end
+```
+
+Then the assertion will fail (because <code>ary.delete(1)</code> will
+initially return 1). But when the error message is formated, the
+system reports that <code>ary.delete(1)</code> returns nil. You will
+scratch your head over that for a good while.
+
+Instead, move the state changing code into a _When(:result)_ block, then
+assert what you need to about :result. Something
+like this is good:
+
+```ruby
+  context "Correct idempotent conditions" do
+    Given(:ary) { [1, 2, 3] }
+    When(:result) { ary.delete(1) }
+    Then { result == nil }
+  end
+```
+
+It is good to note that non-idempotent assertions will also cause
+problems with And and Invariant clauses.
+
+### Mixing Natural Assertions and RSpec Assertions
+
+Natural assertions, RSpec should assertions and Minitest assertions
+can be intermixed in a single test suite, even within a single
+context.
+
+```ruby
+  context "Outer" do
+    context "Inner" do
+      Then { a == b }               # Natural Assertions
+      Then { a.should == b }        # RSpec style
+      Then { expect(a).to eq(b) }   # RSpec style
+      Then { assert_equal b, a }    # Minitest style
+      Then { a.must_equal b }       # Minitest style
+    end
+
+    context "Disabled" do
+      use_natural_assertions false
+    end
+  end
+```
+
+Both the _Outer_ and _Inner_ contexts will use natural assertions. The
+_Disabled_ context overrides the setting inherited from _Outer_ and
+will not process natural assertions.
+
+See the **configuration** section below to see how to disable natural
+assertions project wide.
+
+### Matchers and Natural Assertions
+
+In RSpec, matchers are used to provide nice, readable error messages
+when an assertion is not met. Natural assertions provide
+self-explanatory failure messages for most things without requiring
+any special matchers from the programmer.
+
+In the rare case that some extra information would be helpful, it is
+useful to create special objects that respond to the == operator.
+
+#### Asserting Nearly Equal with Fuzzy Numbers
+
+Operations on floating point numbers rarely create numbers that are
+exactly equal, therefore it is useful to assert that two floating
+point numbers are nearly equal. We do that by creating a fuzzy number
+that has a looser interpretation of what it means to be equal.
+
+For example, the following asserts that the square root of 10 is about
+3.1523 with an accuracy of 1 percent.
+
+```ruby
+    Then { Math.sqrt(10) == about(3.1623).percent(1) }
+```
+
+As long as the real value of <code>Math.sqrt(10)</code> is within plus
+or minus 1% of 3.1623 (i.e. 3.1623 +/- 0.031623), then the assertion
+will pass.
+
+There are several ways of creating fuzzy numbers:
+
+* <code>about(n).delta(d)</code> -- A fuzzy number matching the range
+  (n-d)..(n+d)
+
+* <code>about(n).percent(p)</code> -- A fuzzy number matching the
+  range (n-(n*p/100)) .. (n+(n*p/100))
+
+* <code>about(n).epsilon(neps)</code> -- A fuzzy number matching the
+  range (n-(neps*e)) .. (n+(neps*e)), where e is the difference
+  between 1.0 and the next smallest floating point number.
+
+* <code>about(n)</code> -- Same as <code>about(n).epsilon(10)</code>.
+
+When the file <code>given/fuzzy_shortcuts</code> is required,
+the following unicode shortcut methods are added to Numeric to create
+fuzzy numbers.
+
+* <code>n.±(del)</code> is the same as <code>about(n).delta(del)</code>
+
+* <code>n.‰(percentage)</code> is the same as <code>about(n).percent(percentage)</code>
+
+* <code>n.€(neps)</code> is the same as <code>about(n).epsilon(neps)</code>
+
+* <code>n.±</code>, <code>n.‰</code>, and <code>n.€</code> are all
+  the same as <code>about(n)</code>
+
+#### Detecting Exceptions
+
+The RSpec matcher used for detecting exceptions will work with natural
+assertions out of the box. Just check for equality against the
+<code>Failure()</code> method return value.
+
+For example, the following two Then clauses are equivalent:
+
+```ruby
+    # Using an RSpec matcher
+    Then { result.should have_failed(StandardError, /message/) }
+
+    # Using natural assertions
+    Then { result == Failure(StandardError, /message/) }
+```
+
+### Processing Natural Assertions
+
+When natural assertions are enabled, they are only used if all of the
+following are true:
+
+1. The block does not throw an RSpec assertion failure (or any other
+   exception for that matter).
+
+1. The block returns false (blocks that return true pass the
+   assertion and don't need a failure message).
+
+1. The block does not use the native frameworks assertions or
+   expectations (e.g. RSpec's _should_ or _expect_ methods, or
+   Minitest's _assert\_xxx_ or _must\_xxx_ methods).
+
+Detecting that last point (the use of _should_ and _expect_) is done
+by modifying the RSpec runtime to report uses of _should_ and
+_expect_.
+
+### Platform Support
+
+Natural assertions use the Ripper library to parse the failing
+condition and find all the sub-expression values upon a failure.
+Currently Ripper is not fully supported on JRuby 1.7.4. Charles Nutter
+has said that Ripper support is coming soon and may arrive soon. Until
+then, natural assertions are disabled when running under JRuby. Never
+fear, JRuby supports all the other features of rspec-given and will
+work just fine.
+
+### Further Reading
+
+Natural assertions were inspired by the [wrong assertion
+library](http://rubygems.org/gems/wrong) by [Alex
+Chaffee](http://rubygems.org/profiles/alexch) and [Steve
+Conover](http://rubygems.org/profiles/sconoversf).
+
+## Configuration
+
+If the RSpec format option document, html or textmate is chosen,
+RSpec/Given will automatically add additional source code information to
+the examples to produce better looking output. If you don't care about
+the pretty output and wish to disable source code caching
+unconditionally, then add the following line to your spec helper file:
+
+```ruby
+    Given.source_caching_disabled = true
+```
+
+Natural assertions are disabled by default. To globally configure
+natural assertions, add one of the following lines to your spec_helper
+file:
+
+```ruby
+    Given.use_natural_assertions         # Enable natural assertions
+    Given.use_natural_assertions true    # Same as above
+    Given.use_natural_assertions false   # Disable natural assertions
+    Given.use_natural_assertions :always # Always process natural assertions
+                                         # ... even when should/expect are detected
+```

+
+  * Minor adjustment to natural assertion error messages to better
+    handle multi-line values.
+
+  * Remove flog, flay and other development tools from the bundle and
+    gemspec. The Rakefile was updated to suggest installing them if
+    they are not there.
+
+* Version 2.4.1
+
+  * Fix bug where constants from nested modules were not properly
+    accessed.
+
+* Version 2.4.0
