Newbie in Rspec need tips

Hey everyone! Do you have any tips or free resources that can help me learn Rspec? Although I know how to write some Rspec, I’m not very comfortable with it and am not sure if what I’m writing is a good or bad test.

100% yes! You will not regret buying & reading this. The benefits are multiplied when more than one team member reads this book. RSpec is almost like its own language, and dedicating some study to it pays huge dividends.
