before(:all)
runs the block one time before all of the examples are run.
before(:each)
runs the block one time before each of your specs in the file
before(:all)
sets the instance variables @admission, @project, @creative, @contest_entry
one time before all of the it
blocks are run.
However, :before(:each)
resets the instance variables in the before block every time an it
block is run.
Its a subtle distinction but important
again,
before(:all)
#before block is run
it { should belong_to(:owner).class_name('User') }
it { should belong_to(:project) }
it { should have_many(:entry_comments) }
it { should validate_presence_of(:owner) }
it { should validate_presence_of(:project) }
it { should validate_presence_of(:entry_no) }
it { should validate_presence_of(:title) }
