### Test a VBScript
|
|
|
|
A VBScript file similar to:
|
|
|
|
script = <<-EOH
|
|
WScript.Echo "hello"
|
|
EOH
|
|
|
|
may be tested for multiple lines:
|
|
|
|
describe vbscript(script) do
|
|
its('stdout') { should eq "hello\r\n" }
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
and tested for whitespace removal from standard output:
|
|
|
|
describe vbscript(script) do
|
|
its('strip') { should eq "hello" }
|
|
end
|
|
