How to debug your code not RSpec??

[marko-avlijas]

I guess a guide how to use this effectively is needed.
It seems this gem just rescues exception but doesn't help at all with debugging it?

I started with this:

From: /data/sites/scripts/sw_scripts/ruby/gallery/spec/specs/specs_spec.rb @ line 161 :

    156:       include_examples 'single unit type', :hp, 'HP', 0
    157:     end
    158: 
    159:     describe ':hp_per_volume' do
    160:       it 'tyring to set value/unit raises CantSetCompoundUnitError' do
 => 161:         expect {
    162:           subject.hp_per_volume = 10
    163:         }.to raise_error(CantSetCompoundUnitError)
    164:         expect {
    165:           subject.hp_per_volume = 10, 'HP/Liter'
    166:         }.to raise_error(CantSetCompoundUnitError)

RSpec::Expectations::ExpectationNotMetError: expected Specs::CantSetCompoundUnitError but nothing was raised
from /home/marko/.gem/ruby/2.3.1/gems/rspec-support-3.5.0/lib/rspec/support.rb:87:in `block in <module:Support>'
[1] pry(#<RSpec::ExampleGroups::SpecsSpecs::AttributesNotNeedingConversion::HpPerVolume>)>

I want to examine my code subject.hp_per_volume = 10 But when I press n I get thrown into a nasty spiral of RSpec internals. How do I get it to skip RSpec stuff I don't care about and move to my code?

Because this is the response I get when I press n (which should skip over not step into like s)

    534:     c = Pry::Config.from_hash({

What is all this nonsense? How to get to your code? How to debug your code not RSpec?

did you also add the pry-stack_explorer gem? That seemed to fix it for me.

we also have the pry-stack_explorer and experience the same pb
