I love this approach Arlo -- so much more productive than using an extra layer of indirection such as Cucumber.

I also really liked your use of an Arbitrary namespace to make it clear what's inessential gubbins just to make the test compile.

And finally I like your use of images for the code snippets, instead of Substack's terrible code blocks. I'm definitely going to steal that idea 🙂

Awesome and thanks so much for this feedback! Agreed that Substack's code blocks are pretty terrible - glad to inspire :)

Thanks, Arlo,

For that very practical inspiration.

I had just created yesterday names constants, and after creating it was meaningful, but hard and ugly to read. So I just refactored to your proposed Arbitrary.Pattern.

Better to read and more cohesive. Thx
