rspec users - Oct 2008 - how to play with rSpec using irb

Hi,

Is there any way to experiment with rSpec in irb or script/console
session?

Tried this:
>> require ''spec''
=> true
>> [1,2,3].should have(3).items
=> NoMethodError: undefined method `have'' for main:Object
  from (irb):4
  from
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:1576

What I am doing wrong?

Thx

%w(1 2 3).should have(3).items

the call to have is Object#have, which doesn''t exist. If you include  
the Spec::Matchers module however, then it adds Object#have, etc.

Julius:~ caius$ irb
 >> require "spec"
=> true
 >> include Spec::Matchers
=> Object
 >> %w(1 2 3).should have(3).items
=> true
