## 🌻 Synopsis
[Timecop::Rspec](https://github.com/avantoss/timecop-rspec) provides [Timecop](https://github.com/travisjeffery/timecop) time-machines for [RSpec](https://github.com/rspec/rspec) that allow you to time-travel test examples, context/describes, and/or your entire test suite.
The gem was never released by its original author, who later moved on to work in other languages.
[Zach Taylor](https://github.com/taylorzr) and
[Tim Mertens](https://github.com/tmertens)
did a great job with it, and people have been [hoping it would be published](https://github.com/avantoss/timecop-rspec/issues/2).
It has a great API, and I was about to build this exact thing myself, so I am glad I found this.
I've modernized everything, added more tests and documentation, and released it.
Thanks to the long-term stability of both RSpec and Timecop, the original code still works perfectly.
Improvements over original:
- The original only supported Ruby 2.2+, but I've backfilled support to 1.9.2 (to align with the max-min version between RSpec & Timecop).
- Added tests for 100% line coverage.
- Added documentation for all public methods.
- removed runtime (and dev) dependency on `activesupport`.
I expect the current release of this gem to be compatible with Ruby 1.9.2+,
but it is only tested on CI against Ruby 2.3+,
due to the inherent limitations of GitHub Actions.
Alternative Libraries
I have only found one, but it didn't have the API I wanted.

## ✨ Installation
Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:
$ bundle add timecop-rspec
If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:
$ gem install timecop-rspec
### 🔒 Secure Installation
For Medium or High Security Installations
This gem is cryptographically signed, and has verifiable [SHA-256 and SHA-512][💎SHA_checksums] checksums by
[stone_checksums][💎stone_checksums]. Be sure the gem you install hasn’t been tampered with
by following the instructions below.
Add my public key (if you haven’t already, expires 2045-04-29) as a trusted certificate:
```console
gem cert --add <(curl -Ls https://raw.github.com/galtzo-floss/certs/main/pboling.pem)
```
You only need to do that once. Then proceed to install with:
```console
gem install timecop-rspec -P HighSecurity
```
The `HighSecurity` trust profile will verify signed gems, and not allow the installation of unsigned dependencies.
If you want to up your security game full-time:
```console
bundle config set --global trust-policy MediumSecurity
```
`MediumSecurity` instead of `HighSecurity` is necessary if not all the gems you use are signed.
NOTE: Be prepared to track down certs for signed gems and add them the same way you added mine.
## ⚙️ Configuration
### Regular Time Machine
```ruby
# spec_helper.rb or some configuration file loaded by spec_helper.rb
require "timecop/rspec"
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.around(:example) do |example|
Timecop::Rspec.time_machine.run(example)
end
end
```
The regular time machine will run each example at the time specified by the
RSpec metadata, or the global travel time.
### Sequential Time Machine
```ruby
# spec_helper.rb or some configuration file loaded by spec_helper.rb
require "timecop/rspec"
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.around(:example) do |example|
Timecop::Rspec.time_machine(:sequential => true).run(example)
end
end
```
The sequential time machine is almost the same as the regular time machine,
except that it will sometimes resume time travel.
Global travel will always resume from when the previous global traveled
example ended. E.g.
```ruby
# GLOBAL_TIME_TRAVEL_TIME=2014-11-15 bundle exec rspec some_spec.rb
it "example 1" do
Time.now # => 2014-11-15 00:00:00
sleep 6
end
it "example 2" do
Time.now # => 2014-11-15 00:00:06 (resumed from end of previous example)
end
```
Following local travel will resume when specified time is the same as the
previous examples specified time. If the time is different, it will
start from the current examples specified time.
```ruby
describe SomeUnit, :travel => Time.new(2014, 11, 15) do
it "example 1" do
Time.now # => 2014-11-15 00:00:00
sleep 6
end
it "example 2" do
Time.now # => 2014-11-15 00:00:06 (resumed from end of previous example)
end
it "example 3", :travel => Time.new(1982, 6, 16) do
Time.now # => 1982-06-16 00:00:00
end
end
```
## 🔧 Basic Usage
### Local Time Travel
Timecop.travel/freeze any RSpec (describe|context|example) with
`:travel` or `:freeze` metadata.
```ruby
# Timecop.travel
it "some description", :travel => Time.new(2014, 11, 15) do
Time.now # 2014-11-15 00:00:00
sleep 6
Time.now # 2014-11-15 00:00:06 (6 seconds later)
end
# Timecop.freeze
it "some description", :freeze => Time.new(2014, 11, 15) do
Time.now # 2014-11-15 00:00:00
sleep 6
Time.now # 2014-11-15 00:00:00 (Ruby's time hasn't advanced)
end
```
### Global Time Travel
Using global time travel will Timecop.travel any example that isn't
already time traveling. I.e. example level timecop metadata will take
precedence.
```sh
GLOBAL_TIME_TRAVEL_TIME=2014-11-15 bundle exec rspec spec/some_directory/
```
The global time travel can also be skipped. You may want to skip
time travel when testing with some external service, such as redis,
where you can't modify time the same way as within ruby.
```ruby
it "some example that can't time travel", :skip_global_travel do
# Time.now will be real time
end
```
## 🦷 FLOSS Funding
> How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.
>—Anne Frank
I’m driven by a passion to foster a thriving open-source community – a space where people can tackle complex problems, no matter how small. Revitalizing libraries that have fallen into disrepair, and building new libraries focused on solving real-world challenges, are my passions — totaling 79 hours of FLOSS coding over just the past seven days, a pretty regular week for me. I was recently affected by layoffs, and the tech jobs market is unwelcoming. I’m reaching out here because your support would significantly aid my efforts to provide for my family, and my farm (11 🐔 chickens, 2 🐶 dogs, 3 🐰 rabbits, 8 🐈 cats).
If you work at a company that uses my work, please encourage them to support me as a corporate sponsor. My work on gems you use might show up in `bundle fund`.
I’m developing a new library, [floss_funding][🖇floss-funding-gem], designed to empower open-source developers like myself to get paid for the work we do, in a sustainable way. Please give it a look.
**[Floss-Funding.dev][🖇floss-funding.dev]: 👉️ No network calls. 👉️ No tracking. 👉️ No oversight. 👉️ Minimal crypto hashing. 💡 Easily disabled nags**

⭐️ Star History
## 📌 Versioning
This Library adheres to [![Semantic Versioning 2.0.0][📌semver-img]][📌semver].
Violations of this scheme should be reported as bugs.
Specifically, if a minor or patch version is released that breaks backward compatibility,
a new version should be immediately released that restores compatibility.
Breaking changes to the public API will only be introduced with new major versions.
> dropping support for a platform is both obviously and objectively a breaking change
>—Jordan Harband ([@ljharb](https://github.com/ljharb), maintainer of SemVer) [in SemVer issue 716][📌semver-breaking]
I understand that policy doesn't work universally ("exceptions to every rule!"),
but it is the policy here.
As such, in many cases it is good to specify a dependency on this library using
the [Pessimistic Version Constraint][📌pvc] with two digits of precision.
For example:
```ruby
spec.add_dependency("timecop-rspec", "~> 1.0")
```
📌 Is "Platform Support" part of the public API? More details inside.
SemVer should, but doesn't explicitly, say that dropping support for specific Platforms
is a *breaking change* to an API.
It is obvious to many, but not all, and since the spec is silent, the bike shedding is endless.
To get a better understanding of how SemVer is intended to work over a project's lifetime,
read this article from the creator of SemVer:

## 🤑 A request for help
Maintainers have teeth, and need to pay their dentists.
After getting laid off in an RIF in March, and filled with many dozens of rejections,
I'm now spending ~80 hours a week building open source tools.
I'm hoping to be able to pay for my kids' health insurance this month,
so if you value the work I am doing, I need your support.
