[QA] Reg::RSpec matchers

[jagori samajdar]

Hi Dan,

Thanks for sharing the article.I can correlate a bit now.I read about
predicate methods too about which I wasn't aware.

Thus expect(x).to be_visible

is basically calling x.visible? method.Hope I am right in my understanding.

Just one more question,might sound bit basic:)

is visible? a method available by default from Ruby or is it a user defined
function?

Thanks,
Jagori
