Routes2spec

Generate Request specs and Routing specs of RSpec, from your Rails routes config. It is useful as a test scaffolding.

Currently does not work with Rails 7.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "routes2spec", group: :test

And then execute:

$ bundle install

This gem depends on the Rails application, so it generates binstubs first.

$ bundle exec routes2spec --binstubs
# => `bin/routes2spec` will be generated.

Then, simply execute the following command to generate the spec files.

$ bin/routes2spec

See help for other options.

$ bin/routes2spec --help
