Expected to record a snapshot

[Renatdz]

When I try to record a snapshot, the matcher always return to me the message below:

"expected to record a snapshot"

I did not found any issue about this, can you give me any information about this error?

My test class is based in a UITableViewCell.

class ExamCellTests: QuickSpec {
    
    var sut: ExamCell!
    
    override func spec() {
        
        describe("ExamCellTests") {
            
            context("when you tried to instantiate ExamCell with coder") {
                
                beforeEach {
                    let coder = NSCoder()
                    self.sut = ExamCell(coder: coder)
                }
                
                it("should be expected a nil value") {
                    expect(self.sut).to(beNil())
                }
            }

            context("when load into screen") {

                beforeEach {
                    self.sut = ExamCell()
                    self.sut.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 320, height: 86)

                    let exam = Exam(id: 0, sigla: "invalid", name: "Ultrassonografia, abdomen superior", itemID: 0, item: 0, subitemID: 0, itemStatus: 0)

                    self.sut.setup(exam: exam)
                }

                it("should have the expected layout") {
                    expect(self.sut) == recordSnapshot()
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

The strange thing is that this happens only in this class, in others it works...

Any idea?

Thanks.

This is the expected behavior: the matcher fails to remind you that you should replace it with == snapshot() after recording it (generating the reference image).

Hey Marcelo, the image was not recorded and the folder was not created too.

When the image is recorded, the matcher show me another message, somenthing like "expected to record Sucessfully, please change the recordSnapshot() to snapshot()"
