class RSpec::Core::Configuration

Stores runtime configuration information.

Configuration options are loaded from multiple files and joined together with command-line switches and the ‘SPEC_OPTS` environment variable.

Precedence order (where later entries overwrite earlier entries on conflicts):

* Global (`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/rspec/options`, or `~/.rspec` if it does
  not exist)
* Project-specific (`./.rspec`)
* Local (`./.rspec-local`)
* Command-line options
* `SPEC_OPTS`

For example, an option set in the local file will override an option set in your global file.

The global, project-specific and local files can all be overridden with a separate custom file using the –options command-line parameter.

@example Standard settings

RSpec.configure do |c|
  c.drb          = true
  c.drb_port     = 1234
  c.default_path = 'behavior'
end

@example Hooks

RSpec.configure do |c|
  c.before(:suite)   { establish_connection }
  c.before(:example) { log_in_as :authorized }
  c.around(:example) { |ex| Database.transaction(&ex) }
end

Attributes

Determines which bisect runner implementation gets used to run subsets of the suite during a bisection. Your choices are:

- `:shell`: Performs a spec run by shelling out, booting RSpec and your
  application environment each time. This runner is the most widely
  compatible runner, but is not as fast. On platforms that do not
  support forking, this is the default.
- `:fork`: Pre-boots RSpec and your application environment in a parent
  process, and then forks a child process for each spec run. This runner
  tends to be significantly faster than the `:shell` runner but cannot
  be used in some situations. On platforms that support forking, this
  is the default. If you use this runner, you should ensure that all
  of your one-time setup logic goes in a `before(:suite)` hook instead
  of getting run at the top-level of a file loaded by `--require`.

@note This option will only be used by ‘–bisect` if you set it in a file

loaded via `--require`.

@return [Symbol]

Set the color mode.

@macro add_setting Report the times for the slowest examples (default: ‘false`). Use this to specify the number of examples to include in the profile. @return [Boolean]

@return [Symbol] The configured warning level

Public Instance Methods

@overload add_formatter(formatter) @overload add_formatter(formatter, output)

@param formatter [Class, String, Object] formatter to use. Can be any of the

string values supported from the CLI (`p`/`progress`,
`d`/`doc`/`documentation`, `h`/`html`, or `j`/`json`), any
class that implements the formatter protocol and has registered
itself with RSpec as a formatter, or a formatter instance.

@param output [String, IO] where the formatter will write its output.

Can be an IO object or a string path to a file. If not provided,
the configured `output_stream` (`$stdout`, by default) will be used.

Adds a formatter to the set RSpec will use for this run.

@see RSpec::Core::Formatters::Protocol

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 893
def add_formatter(formatter, output=output_wrapper)
  formatter_loader.add(formatter, output)
end
Also aliased as: formatter=

@overload add_setting(name) @overload add_setting(name, opts) @option opts [Symbol] :default

Set a default value for the generated getter and predicate methods:

    add_setting(:foo, :default => "default value")

@option opts [Symbol] :alias_with

Use `:alias_with` to alias the setter, getter, and predicate to
another name, or names:

    add_setting(:foo, :alias_with => :bar)
    add_setting(:foo, :alias_with => [:bar, :baz])

Adds a custom setting to the RSpec.configuration object.

RSpec.configuration.add_setting :foo

Used internally and by extension frameworks like rspec-rails, so they can add config settings that are domain specific. For example:

RSpec.configure do |c|
  c.add_setting :use_transactional_fixtures,
    :default => true,
    :alias_with => :use_transactional_examples
end

‘add_setting` creates three methods on the configuration object, a setter, a getter, and a predicate:

RSpec.configuration.foo=(value)
RSpec.configuration.foo
RSpec.configuration.foo? # Returns true if foo returns anything but nil or false.
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 577
def add_setting(name, opts={})
  default = opts.delete(:default)
  (class << self; self; end).class_exec do
    add_setting(name, opts)
  end
  __send__("#{name}=", default) if default
end

Defines a ‘after` hook. See {Hooks#after} for full docs.

This method differs from {Hooks#after} in only one way: it supports the ‘:suite` scope. Hooks with the `:suite` scope will be run once after the last example of the entire suite is executed. Conditions passed along with `:suite` are effectively ignored.

@see append_after @see before @see prepend_before

Calls superclass method RSpec::Core::Hooks#after
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1886
def after(scope=nil, *meta, &block)
  handle_suite_hook(scope, meta) do
    @after_suite_hooks.unshift Hooks::AfterHook.new(block, {})
  end || begin
    add_hook_to_existing_matching_groups(meta, scope) { |g| g.after(scope, *meta, &block) }
    super(scope, *meta, &block)
  end
end
Also aliased as: prepend_after

Creates a method that defines an example group with the provided metadata. Can be used to define example group/metadata shortcuts.

@example

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.alias_example_group_to :describe_model, :type => :model
end

shared_context_for "model tests", :type => :model do
  # define common model test helper methods, `let` declarations, etc
end

# This lets you do this:

RSpec.describe_model User do
end

# ... which is the equivalent of

RSpec.describe User, :type => :model do
end

@see alias_example_to

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1102
def alias_example_group_to(new_name, *args)
  extra_options = Metadata.build_hash_from(args)
  RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup.define_example_group_method(new_name, extra_options)
end

Creates a method that delegates to ‘example` including the submitted `args`. Used internally to add variants of `example` like `pending`: @param name [String] example name alias @param args [Array<Symbol>, Hash] metadata for the generated example

@note The specific example alias below (‘pending`) is already

defined for you.

@note Use with caution. This extends the language used in your

specs, but does not add any additional documentation. We use this
in RSpec to define methods like `focus` and `xit`, but we also add
docs for those methods.

@example

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.alias_example_to :pending, :pending => true
end

# This lets you do this:

RSpec.describe Thing do
  pending "does something" do
    thing = Thing.new
  end
end

# ... which is the equivalent of

RSpec.describe Thing do
  it "does something", :pending => true do
    thing = Thing.new
  end
end
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1074
def alias_example_to(name, *args)
  extra_options = Metadata.build_hash_from(args)
  RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup.define_example_method(name, extra_options)
end

Define an alias for it_behaves_like that allows different language (like “it_has_behavior” or “it_is_able_to”) to be employed when including shared examples.

@example

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.alias_it_behaves_like_to(:it_has_behavior, 'has behavior:')
end

# allows the user to include a shared example group like:

RSpec.describe Entity do
  it_has_behavior 'sortability' do
    let(:sortable) { Entity.new }
  end
end

# which is reported in the output as:
# Entity
#   has behavior: sortability
#     ...sortability examples here

@note Use with caution. This extends the language used in your

specs, but does not add any additional documentation.
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1131
def alias_it_behaves_like_to(new_name, report_label='')
  RSpec::Core::ExampleGroup.define_nested_shared_group_method(new_name, report_label)
end

Adds ‘block` to the end of the list of `after` blocks in the same scope (`:example`, `:context`, or `:suite`), in contrast to {#after}, which adds the hook to the start of the list.

See {Hooks#after} for full ‘after` hook docs.

This method differs from {Hooks#append_after} in only one way: it supports the ‘:suite` scope. Hooks with the `:suite` scope will be run once after the last example of the entire suite is executed. Conditions passed along with `:suite` are effectively ignored.

  # We loop and attempt to re-apply metadata blocks to support cascades
  # (e.g. where a derived bit of metadata triggers the application of

    end
  end

  # `true` above and we treat this as an attempt to recurse infinitely. It's better to fail
  # with a clear # error than hang indefinitely, which is what would happen if we didn't limit
  # the looping above.
  raise SystemStackError, "Attempted to recursively derive metadata indefinitely."
end

Registers ‘block` as an `around` hook.

See {Hooks#around} for full ‘around` hook docs.

Calls superclass method RSpec::Core::Hooks#around
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1922
def around(scope=nil, *meta, &block)

end

Regexps used to exclude lines from backtraces.

Excludes lines from ruby (and jruby) source, installed gems, anything in any “bin” directory, and any of the RSpec libs (outside gem installs) by default.

You can modify the list via the getter, or replace it with the setter.

To override this behaviour and display a full backtrace, use ‘–backtrace` on the command line, in a `.rspec` file, or in the `rspec_options` attribute of RSpec’s rake task. @return [Array<Regexp>]

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 615
def backtrace_exclusion_patterns
  @backtrace_formatter.exclusion_patterns
end

Set regular expressions used to exclude lines in backtrace. @param patterns [Array<Regexp>] set backtrace_formatter exclusion_patterns

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 621
def backtrace_exclusion_patterns=(patterns)
  @backtrace_formatter.exclusion_patterns = patterns
end

Regexps used to include lines in backtraces.

Defaults to [Regexp.new Dir.getwd].

Lines that match an exclusion and an inclusion pattern will be included.

You can modify the list via the getter, or replace it with the setter. @return [Array<Regexp>]

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 634

end

Defines a ‘before` hook. See {Hooks#before} for full docs.

This method differs from {Hooks#before} in only one way: it supports the ‘:suite` scope. Hooks with the `:suite` scope will be run once before the first example of the entire suite is executed. Conditions passed along with `:suite` are effectively ignored.

The formatter that will be used if no formatter has been set. Defaults to ‘progress’.

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 900
def default_formatter
  formatter_loader.default_formatter
end

Sets a fallback formatter to use if none other has been set.

@example

RSpec.configure do |rspec|
  rspec.default_formatter = 'doc'
end
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 911

end

Defines a callback that can assign derived metadata values.

@param filters [Array<Symbol>, Hash] metadata filters that determine

which example or group metadata hashes the callback will be triggered
for. If none are given, the callback will be run against the metadata
hashes of all groups and examples.

@yieldparam metadata [Hash] original metadata hash from an example or

group. Mutate this in your block as needed.

@example

RSpec.configure do |config|
  # Tag all groups and examples in the spec/unit directory with
  # :type => :unit
  config.define_derived_metadata(:file_path => %r{/spec/unit/}) do |metadata|
    metadata[:type] = :unit

def define_derived_metadata(*filters, &block)
  meta = Metadata.build_hash_from(filters)

end

Determines where deprecation warnings are printed. @param value [IO, String] IO to write to or filename to write to

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 148
def deprecation_stream=(value)
  if @reporter && !value.equal?(@deprecation_stream)
    warn "RSpec's reporter has already been initialized with " \

         "`deprecation_stream` will be ignored. You should configure it earlier for " \
         "it to take effect, or use the `--deprecation-out` CLI option. " \
         "(Called from #{CallerFilter.first_non_rspec_line})"
  else
    @deprecation_stream = value
  end
end

@return [Boolean] Whether or not ruby deprecations are enabled.

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1669
def deprecation_warnings?
  ::Warning[:deprecated]
end

Sets the file path to use for persisting example statuses. Necessary for the ‘–only-failures` and `–next-failure` CLI options.

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 172
def example_status_persistence_file_path=(value)
  @example_status_persistence_file_path = value
  clear_values_derived_from_example_status_persistence_file_path
end

Set pattern to match files to exclude. @attr value [String] the filename pattern to exclude spec files by

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 283
def exclude_pattern=(value)
  update_pattern_attr :exclude_pattern, value
end

Returns the ‘exclusion_filter`. If none has been set, returns an empty hash.

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1259
def exclusion_filter
  filter_manager.exclusions
end

Clears and reassigns the ‘exclusion_filter`. Set to `nil` if you don’t want any exclusion filter at all.

### Warning

This overrides any exclusion filters/tags set on the command line or in configuration files.

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1252
def exclusion_filter=(filter)
  meta = Metadata.build_hash_from([filter])
  filter_manager.exclude_only meta
end

Sets the expectation framework module(s) to be included in each example group.

‘frameworks` can be `:rspec`, `:test_unit`, `:minitest`, a custom module, or any combination thereof:

config.expect_with :rspec
config.expect_with :test_unit
config.expect_with :minitest
config.expect_with :rspec, :minitest
config.expect_with OtherExpectationFramework

RSpec will translate ‘:rspec`, `:minitest`, and `:test_unit` into the appropriate modules.

## Configuration

If the module responds to ‘configuration`, `expect_with` will yield the `configuration` object if given a block:

config.expect_with OtherExpectationFramework do |custom_config|
  custom_config.custom_setting = true
end
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 776

Exposes the current running example via the named helper method. RSpec 2.x exposed this via ‘example`, but in RSpec 3.0, the example is instead exposed via an arg yielded to `it`, `before`, `let`, etc. However, some extension gems (such as Capybara) depend on the RSpec 2.x’s ‘example` method, so this config option can be used to maintain compatibility.

@param method_name [Symbol] the name of the helper method

@example

RSpec.configure do |rspec|
  rspec.expose_current_running_example_as :example
end

RSpec.describe MyClass do
  before do
    # `example` can be used here because of the above config.
    do_something if example.metadata[:type] == "foo"
  end

end

Tells RSpec to extend example groups with ‘mod`. Methods defined in `mod` are exposed to example groups (not examples). Use `filters` to constrain the groups to extend.

Similar to ‘include`, but behavior is added to example groups, which are classes, rather than the examples, which are instances of those classes.

@example

module UiHelpers
  def run_in_browser
    # ...
  end
end

module PermissionHelpers
  def define_permissions
    # ...
  end
end

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.extend(UiHelpers, :type => :request)
  config.extend(PermissionHelpers, :with_permissions, :type => :request)
end

describe "edit profile", :with_permissions, :type => :request do
  run_in_browser
  define_permissions

  it "does stuff in the client" do
    # ...
  end
end

Adds {#backtrace_exclusion_patterns} that will filter lines from the named gems from backtraces.

@param gem_names [Array<String>] Names of the gems to filter

@example

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.filter_gems_from_backtrace "rack", "rake"
end

@note The patterns this adds will match the named gems in their common

locations (e.g. system gems, vendored with bundler, installed as a
:git dependency with bundler, etc) but is not guaranteed to work for
all possible gem locations. For example, if you have the gem source
in a directory with a completely unrelated name, and use bundler's
:path option, this will not filter it.
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 660
def filter_gems_from_backtrace(*gem_names)
  gem_names.each do |name|
    @backtrace_formatter.filter_gem(name)
  end
end

Adds key/value pairs to the ‘exclusion_filter`. If `args` includes any symbols that are not part of the hash, each symbol is treated as a key in the hash with the value `true`.

### Note

Filters set using this method can be overridden from the command line or config files (e.g. ‘.rspec`).

@example

# Given this declaration.
describe "something", :foo => 'bar' do
  # ...
end

# Any of the following will exclude that group.
config.filter_run_excluding :foo => 'bar'
config.filter_run_excluding :foo => /^ba/
config.filter_run_excluding :foo => lambda {|v| v == 'bar'}
config.filter_run_excluding :foo => lambda {|v,m| m[:foo] == 'bar'}

# Given a proc with an arity of 1, the lambda is passed the value
# related to the key, e.g.
config.filter_run_excluding :foo => lambda {|v| v == 'bar'}

# Given a proc with an arity of 2, the lambda is passed the value
# related to the key, and the metadata itself e.g.
config.filter_run_excluding :foo => lambda {|v,m| m[:foo] == 'bar'}

filter_run_excluding :foo # same as filter_run_excluding :foo => true
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1239
def filter_run_excluding(*args)
  meta = Metadata.build_hash_from(args)

end

Adds key/value pairs to the ‘inclusion_filter`. If `args` includes any symbols that are not part of the hash, each symbol is treated as a key in the hash with the value `true`.

### Note

end
Also aliased as: filter_run

Applies the provided filter only if any of examples match, in constrast to {#filter_run}, which always applies even if no examples match, in which case no examples will be run. This allows you to leave configured filters in place that are intended only for temporary use. The most common example is focus filtering: ‘config.filter_run_when_matching :focus`. With that configured, you can temporarily focus an example or group by tagging it with `:focus` metadata, or prefixing it with an `f` (as in `fdescribe`, `fcontext` and `fit`) since those are aliases for `describe`/`context`/`it` with `:focus` metadata.

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1181

end

Tells RSpec to include ‘mod` in example groups. Methods defined in `mod` are exposed to examples (not example groups). Use `filters` to constrain the groups or examples in which to include the module.

@example

module AuthenticationHelpers
  def login_as(user)
    # ...
  end
end

module PreferencesHelpers
  def preferences(user, preferences = {})
    # ...
  end
end

module UserHelpers
  def users(username)
    # ...
  end
end

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.include(UserHelpers) # included in all groups

  # included in examples with `:preferences` metadata
  config.include(PreferenceHelpers, :preferences)

  # included in examples with `:type => :request` metadata
  config.include(AuthenticationHelpers, :type => :request)

  # included in examples where the `:type` metadata matches a proc condition
  config.include(AuthenticationHelpers, :type => proc { |type, _metadata| [:request, :controller].include?(type) })
end

describe "edit profile", :preferences, :type => :request do
  it "can be viewed by owning user" do
    login_as preferences(users(:jdoe), :lang => 'es')
    get "/profiles/jdoe"
    assert_select ".username", :text => 'jdoe'
  end
end

@note Filtered module inclusions can also be applied to

individual examples that have matching metadata. Just like
Ruby's object model is that every object has a singleton class
which has only a single instance, RSpec's model is that every
example has a singleton example group containing just the one
example.

@see include_context @see extend @see prepend

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1318
def include(mod, *filters)
  define_mixed_in_module(mod, filters, @include_modules, :include) do |group|
    safe_include(mod, group)
  end
end

Tells RSpec to include the named shared example group in example groups. Use ‘filters` to constrain the groups or examples in which to include the example group.

@example

RSpec.shared_context "example admin user" do
  let(:admin_user) { create_user(:admin) }
end

RSpec.shared_context "example guest user" do
  let(:guest_user) { create_user(:guest) }
end

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.include_context "example guest user", :type => :request
  config.include_context "example admin user", :admin, :type => :request
end

RSpec.describe "The admin page", :type => :request do
  it "can be viewed by admins", :admin do
    login_with admin_user
    get "/admin"
    expect(response).to be_ok
  end

  it "cannot be viewed by guests" do
    login_with guest_user
    get "/admin"
    expect(response).to be_forbidden
  end
end

@note Filtered context inclusions can also be applied to

individual examples that have matching metadata. Just like
Ruby's object model is that every object has a singleton class
which has only a single instance, RSpec's model is that every
example has a singleton example group containing just the one
example.

    begin
      mock_with :rspec

  @mock_framework
end

Delegates to mock_framework=(framework).

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 599
def mock_framework=(framework)
  mock_with framework
end

Sets the mock framework adapter module.

‘framework` can be a Symbol or a Module.

Given any of ‘:rspec`, `:mocha`, `:flexmock`, or `:rr`, configures the named framework.

Given ‘:nothing`, configures no framework. Use this if you don’t use any mocking framework to save a little bit of overhead.

Given a Module, includes that module in every example group. The module should adhere to RSpec’s mock framework adapter API:

setup_mocks_for_rspec
  - called before each example

verify_mocks_for_rspec
  - called after each example if the example hasn't yet failed.
    Framework should raise an exception when expectations fail

teardown_mocks_for_rspec
  - called after verify_mocks_for_rspec (even if there are errors)

If the module responds to ‘configuration` and `mock_with` receives a block, it will yield the configuration object to the block e.g.

config.mock_with OtherMockFrameworkAdapter do |mod_config|
  mod_config.custom_setting = true
end
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 704

Tells RSpec to prepend example groups with ‘mod`. Methods defined in `mod` are exposed to examples (not example groups). Use `filters` to constrain the groups in which to prepend the module.

Similar to ‘include`, but module is included before the example group’s class in the ancestor chain.

@example

module OverrideMod
  def override_me
    "overridden"
  end
end

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.prepend(OverrideMod, :method => :prepend)
end

describe "overriding example's class", :method => :prepend do
  it "finds the user" do
    self.class.class_eval do

end

Adds ‘block` to the start of the list of `before` blocks in the same scope (`:example`, `:context`, or `:suite`), in contrast to {#before}, which adds the hook to the end of the list.

See {Hooks#before} for full ‘before` hook docs.

This method differs from {Hooks#prepend_before} in only one way: it supports the ‘:suite` scope. Hooks with the `:suite` scope will be run once before the first example of the entire suite is executed. Conditions passed along with `:suite` are effectively ignored.

end

Turns deprecation warnings into errors, in order to surface the full backtrace of the call site. This can be useful when you need more context to address a deprecation than the single-line call site normally provided.

@example

RSpec.configure do |rspec|
  rspec.raise_errors_for_deprecations!
end
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1746
def raise_errors_for_deprecations!
  self.deprecation_stream = Formatters::DeprecationFormatter::RaiseErrorStream.new

Turns RSpec warnings into errors. This can be useful when you want RSpec to run in a ‘strict’ no warning situation. (Note this does not capture or raise on Ruby warnings).

@example

RSpec.configure do |rspec|
  rspec.raise_on_warning = true
end
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1693
def raise_on_warning=(value)
  if value
    RSpec::Support.warning_notifier = RAISE_ERROR_WARNING_NOTIFIER
  else
    RSpec::Support.warning_notifier = RSpec::Support::DEFAULT_WARNING_NOTIFIER
  end
end

@return [RSpec::Core::Reporter] the currently configured reporter

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 953
def reporter
  # @reporter_buffer should only ever be set in this method to cover
  # initialization of @reporter.
  @reporter_buffer || @reporter ||=
    begin
      @reporter_buffer = DeprecationReporterBuffer.new
      formatter_loader.prepare_default output_wrapper, deprecation_stream
      @reporter_buffer.play_onto(formatter_loader.reporter)
      @reporter_buffer = nil
      formatter_loader.reporter
    end
end

Set Ruby warnings. ‘:deprecations_only` is recommended, but may be too noisy due to dependencies. Can be set to `:all` or `:none` to show all warnings or none of them.

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1648
def warnings=(value)
  case value
  when :none
    @warnings = :none
    $VERBOSE = false
    ::Warning[:deprecated] = false
  when :all
    @warnings = :all
    $VERBOSE = true
    ::Warning[:deprecated] = true
  when :deprecations_only
    @warnings = :deprecations_only
    $VERBOSE = false
    ::Warning[:deprecated] = true
  else
    raise "Unsupported value for `warnings` (#{value.inspect}). " \
          "Only `:none`, `:all` and `:deprecations_only` are supported."
  end
end

@return [Boolean] Whether or not ruby warnings are enabled.

# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1677
def warnings?
  $VERBOSE
end

Defines a callback that runs after the first example with matching metadata is defined. If no examples are defined with matching metadata, it will not get called at all.

This can be used to ensure some setup is performed (such as bootstrapping a DB or loading a specific file that adds significantly to the boot time) if needed (as indicated by the presence of an example with matching metadata) but avoided otherwise.

@example

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.when_first_matching_example_defined(:db) do
    # Load a support file that does some heavyweight setup,
    # including bootstrapping the DB, but only if we have loaded
    # any examples tagged with `:db`.
    require 'support/db'
  end
end
# File rspec-core/lib/rspec/core/configuration.rb, line 1790
def when_first_matching_example_defined(*filters)
  specified_meta = Metadata.build_hash_from(filters)

  callback = lambda do |example_or_group_meta|
    # Example groups do not have `:example_group` metadata
    # (instead they have `:parent_example_group` metadata).
    return unless example_or_group_meta.key?(:example_group)

    # Ensure the callback only fires once.
    @derived_metadata_blocks.delete(callback, specified_meta)

    yield
  end

  @derived_metadata_blocks.append(callback, specified_meta)
end
