I would like to work on this, any suggestion at first?

[davydovanton]

thanks for help!
About suggestions: no idea. We can create some matchers for abilities and roles, WDYT? Also, we can check pundit or cancancan projects for inspiration 🤔

Here's the first phase of PR i've done, lack of some functionalities but I think it's quite useful
#15

[davydovanton]

After #15:

• allow #permit to take ability name + payload for testing. Something like this:

expect(subject).not_to permit('post.edit', user, post)

• Update README file and add information how to inject matchers and use it.

Just added here #16 ❤️

After finished it, I bumped into some issues, I think can change it

• The abilities classes used in different files are actually shared, even though it looks like just defining a new one, which might cause different spec tests failing if changed unintentionally, maybe can use Struct to init them ?

[davydovanton]

@berniechiu not sure that I understand correct, could you explain little bit more why you want to use Struct?

[berniechiu]

Oh! Other solutions are ok, just that the classes are re-opened in each spec file, which looks weird since each spec file supposedly is using the test class individually.
