Custom Shoulda Macros

The macros which shoulda (maintained by Thoughtbot) provide are nearly irreplaceable for simple and efficient testing. But, did you ever look to see how easy it is to create your own macros? With five or ten minutes of effort, you may end up saving yourself hours down the road and Przemysław "Szeryf" Kowalczyk wrote up a quick tutorial on some of the basics. It's worth a look if custom macros are new to you.
