This gem provides a set of RSpec matchers to allow relative comparisons of images.

e.g. User.image.should look_like(otherimage)

The gem has only been tested with Rails 3.0 & 3.1 with the asset pipeline and RSpec 2.

It also relies on imagemagick being installed and available from the command line as it utilisies its 'identify' command. The Gem has only been tested with Imagemagick V6.x.

Include the gem in your Gemfile:-

gem 'image-spec'

include the matchers in your spec_helper.rb:-

require 'image_spec/matchers'
