Shared examples for specs.

[lolgear]

@sharplet Is there any capabilities to use sharedExamples like Rspec?

In Specta you could use:

SpecBegin(AlgorithmRS256)
describe(@"AlgorithmRS256", ^{
    NSString *algorithmBehaviour = @"AlgorithmRS256";
    NSString *algorithmKey = @"alg";

    sharedExamplesFor(algorithmBehaviour, ^(NSDictionary *data){
        __block id<JWTAlgorithm> algorithm;
        __block NSString *validTokenToDecode;
        __block NSString *invalidTokenToDecode;
        __block NSString *validPublicKeyCertificateString;
        __block NSString *invalidPublicKeyCertificateString;
        __block NSData *privateKeyCertificateData;
        __block NSString *algorithmName;
        __block NSDictionary *headerAndPayloadDictionary;

        __block void (^assertDecodedDictionary)(NSDictionary *);
        __block void (^assertToken)(NSString *);

        // context it
        // context it
        // context it 
        // many examples here
    )};
    context(@"Name", ^{
        itShouldBehaveLike(@"AlgorithmRS256", @{});
    });

    context(@"Clean", ^{
        itShouldBehaveLike(@"AlgorithmRS256", @{algorithmKey: [JWTAlgorithmRS256 new]});
    });
)};

SpecEnd

Thanks for the suggestion, @lolgear! Shared examples are an awesome idea! However, I'd recommend using Specta or Quick for that feature, since they already implement it. We probably don't have the resources to really explore this idea further in Kiwi, so I'm closing this for now.

@lolgear Yes, shared examples are available on Kiwi since v2.4 (see #600 on how to use them).
