Minitest support

Description

Support for Minitest.

Use Case

I have a number of clients that use Minitest instead of RSpec. That kinda matches my philosophy of minimizing dependencies, though I have no hate for RSpec.

Without having looked, I wonder how much effort it would take to add support to this library.

Example

# Totally making this up on the fly
test 'controllers inherit from ApplicationController' do
  assert_zen_true(controllers) { |c| c.superclass_name == 'ApplicationController' }
end

Thanks Marc Heiligers (@marcheiligers)! Implementation-wise this shouldn't be too hard, because most of the matcher logic is already framework-agnostic under the hood, so it's mostly a matter of writing Minitest assertions on top of it.

The main thing we want to figure out is the design: RSpec should stay the default so existing users won't have to change anything, and Minitest users should be able to opt in without adding RSpec as a dependency into their Gemfile. We will need to think it through and we'll get back to you soon.

Hey Marc Heiligers (@marcheiligers), following up on this, we decided to go ahead and add support for Minitest. We have an idea for how to support both RSpec and Minitest. It should be ready next week. Thanks again for the request!

That's amazing 🙌 Let me know how I can help!

Hi again Marc Heiligers (@marcheiligers), we've just added Minitest support in version 0.2.0.

You can now require 'rubyzen/minitest' and use the following assertions:

• assert_zen_empty
• assert_zen_true
• assert_zen_false

Once you try it out, let us know if everything works as expected.
