In this article, a new extension to Minitest Expectations by Jared White (ResistanceNet ✊) (npub15z3…0xrp) is the perfect illustration for the DMMT philosophy of programming. Come along on a personal journey from learning #testing with RSpec, moving on to Minitest Assertions, then Expectations, and now? Intuitive Expectations, a brand new style provided by Bridgetown Web Framework (npub17vg…zgca) for use in any #Ruby application.
