[rspec-users] how to write spec for infinite loop?

[zuo peng]

Hi,

I've got trouble when describe infinite loop.

code snippet:

  def start_loop
    while true
      data = self.server.handle_client
      if data
        self.manager.dispatch(data)
      end
    end
  end

without the loop, it is easy to test the logic.
but how can I describe it to tell the developer ( me :-) ) that there
should be an infinite loop inside.
thanks.

Regards,
