Feature: --order (new in rspec-core-2.8) Use the `--order` option to tell RSpec how to order the files, groups, and examples. Options are `default` and `rand`: Default is: * files are ordered based on the underlying file system's order (typically case-sensitive alpha on *nix OS's and case-insenstive alpha in Windows) * groups/examples are loaded in the order in which they are declared Use `rand` to randomize the order of files, groups within files, and examples within groups.* * Nested groups are always run from top-level to bottom-level in order to avoid executing `before(:all)` and `after(:all)` hooks more than once, but the order of groups at each level is randomized. You can also specify a seed

Examples

--order default --order rand --order rand:123 --seed 123 # same as --order rand:123 The `default` option is only necessary when you have `--order rand` stored in a config file (e.g. `.rspec`) and you want to override it from the command line.
