It's worth noting that rspec gives you lots of options.

    @micropost.should respond_to(:content)
is perfectly valid, and IMO, much cleaner.

But that's the thing.

    rspec:    @micropost.should respond_to(:context)
    testunit: assert @micropost.respond_to?(:context)

    rspec:    @micropost.should be_valid
    testunit: assert @micropost.valid?

    rspec:    @micropost.should_not be_valid
    testunit: refute @micropost.valid?
The testunit It's Just Ruby examples end up looking like the syntactic sugar!
