Nimble matchers for FBSnapshotTestCase. Highly derivative of Expecta Matchers for FBSnapshotTestCase.

You need to be using CocoaPods 0.36 Beta 1 or higher. Your podfile should look something like the following.

platform :ios, '8.0'

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'

# Whichever pods you need for your app go here.

target 'YOUR_APP_NAME_HERE_Tests', :exclusive => true do
  pod 'Nimble-Snapshots'
end

Then run pod install.

Your tests will look something like the following.

import Quick
import Nimble
import Nimble_Snapshots
import UIKit

class MySpec: QuickSpec {
    override func spec() {
        describe("in some context", { () -> () in
            it("has valid snapshot") {
                let view = ... // some view you want to test
                expect(view).to( haveValidSnapshot() )
            }
        })
    }
}

There are some options for testing the validity of snapshots. Snapshots can be given a name:

expect(view).to( haveValidSnapshot(named: "some custom name") )

We also have a prettier syntax for custom-named snapshots:

expect(view) == snapshot("some custom name")

To record snapshots, just replace haveValidSnapshot() with recordSnapshot() and haveValidSnapshot(named:) with recordSnapshot(named:). We also have a handy emoji operator.

📷(view)
📷(view, "some custom name")

By default, this pod will put the reference images inside a ReferenceImages directory; we try to put this in a place that makes sense (inside your unit tests directory). If we can't figure it out, or if you want to use your own directory instead, call setNimbleTestFolder() with the name of the directory in your unit test's path that we should use. For example, if the tests are in App/AppTesting/, you can call it with AppTesting.

If you have any questions or run into any trouble, feel free to open an issue on this repo.
