Better tests with Specta

Read Original

This article explores using the Specta framework to write unit tests in the xSpec style for iOS development, similar to RSpec in Ruby. It demonstrates the advantages of this behavior-driven approach by comparing a test written with the standard XCTest to one rewritten with Specta, using a concrete example of formatting element data from JSON.
