[rspec-users] hello! first post + context_setup

[Jodi Showers]

Greetings all.

I'm looking over a 'greenfield' pasture, and enjoying the TDD(BDD)  
process of creation.

I'm currently rspec'ing a finite state machine  
(acts_as_state_machine). As such, I need to persist the model through  
'specifies' within the context - from top to bottom.

I have bumped into a couple of probs:
	1. context_setup to define the doesn't permit access to fixtures.  
"You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!"
         2. transactions are defined around each specify? For this  
reason my specifies are very repetitive, encompassing all state  
movement for all previous contexts.
         3. since 2 seems to be the case, it probably doesn't matter  
- but is execution order  guaranteed for specifiy's ?

Thanx to the core team and contributors for rspec. The "diameter of  
my smile" is wide.

Cheers,
