# Shoulda-Kept-Assign-To By [Tinfoil Security](http://tinfoilsecurity.com/) [](https://travis-ci.org/tinfoil/shoulda-kept-assign-to) Shoulda-matchers ([official Git repo](https://github.com/thoughtbot/shoulda-matchers)) removed the `assign_to` matcher in version 2.0.0. We missed it dearly, enough to bring it back. This gem adds the `assign_to` matcher back in and includes, by reference, all the rest of the `shoulda-matchers` – just the way it was before it was mercilessly destroyed. ## Example (from shoulda-matchers, v1.5) ```ruby describe PostsController, "#show" do it { should permit(:title, :body).for(:create) } context "for a fictional user" do before do get :show, :id => 1 end it { should assign_to(:user) } end end ``` ## Installation In Rails 3 and Bundler, add the following to your Gemfile: ```ruby group :test do gem "shoulda-kept-assign-to" end ``` Shoulda will automatically include matchers into the appropriate example groups.
