Version: 0.0.7 of Spec++

This release contains a new expectation API and many other changes.

The new expectation API uses a new syntax:

actual( v.empty() ).predicate.should.be_true();

SPECPP_MAIN is now THEBC_SPECPP_MAIN, context is THEBC_CONTEXT and specify
is THEBC_SPECIFY. If you like the context and specify naming better I

#define context THEBC_CONTEXT
#define specify THEBC_SPECIFY... read more

Spec++ is a framework for practicing Behavior Driven Development(BDD) in C++.

it's behavior. We start by setting up a helper class (stack_helper) that are
going to contain setup, teardown, helper methods and objects needed to test the
behavior. We can now decide what context we are testing our behavior in "An
empty stack" is the context in our example. The next step is to specify the
behavior, "should not be empty after push". We can now do a push to our stack
and then write our expectation, value( stack.empty() ).should.be( false ).... read more
