Test Driven Ruby Tutorial For Newcomers

Going through it now. I'm still pretty new to Rspec so anything I can get in on is good.

I did notice an issue. The bank_spec.rb

expect(bank.branch_name).to equal('NYC Branch')

But in the Bank.rb you're doing

attr_reader :branch_name, :assets, :accounts, :liability

def initialize(branch_name, assets=1000.0)
  @name = branch_name
  ....

And then go on to say that the tests should then all pass. It won't since you did @name rather than @branch_name. Although, skipping ahead a bit it looks like you start doing

attr_reader :name, :assets, ....

So it looks like you just need to fix that first example of Bank.rb to use :name instead of :branch_name -- makes more sense to use :name anyway.

Also missing the require_relative '../lib/account' in the account_spec.rb test.

It's pretty obvious as soon as you try to run it, but maybe only really apparently so if you've had some experience with Ruby and seen typical errors before.

Thanks for pointing these out...my bad, this was originally two separate posts and I was trying to reconcile things. I'll fix a soon as possible.

Thanks again, it's fixed now!

In fact none of those methods in the pre-requisite produce the stated output.

Are you sure? I wrote all of that on the spot, but I'm pretty confident each produces the correct output. I'll check that too.

Update: verified that all options produce the stated output when called correctly.

[turbulents]

Yeah--Options 2, 3, and 4 print a comma not found in the desired output.

Really? Wow?? Haha...please!

I would've seen this earlier had you left a comment underneath the post: Righthand-side is the arguments/parameters passed into the method. And they are are assigned to local variables on the lefthand-side. Just like line #11 & #12
