What are RSpec integration tests and how do I write them?

RSpec integration tests are used to test the interaction between different parts of your application. They ensure that various components work together as expected.

Can you give me an example of an RSpec integration test?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

require 'rails_helper'

RSpec.describe 'User management', type: :request do
  it 'creates a new user' do
    post '/users', params: { user: { name: 'John', email: '[email protected]' } }
    expect(response).to have_http_status(:created)
  end
end

What should I include in my integration tests?

You should include scenarios that cover user interactions, data flow, and edge cases. Make sure to test both successful and unsuccessful outcomes.

How do I run my RSpec integration tests?

You can run your RSpec integration tests by executing the command rspec in your terminal. This will run all tests, including integration tests.
