Overview

Flags constants that are scoped through described_class, e.g. described_class::Worker.

described_class is an RSpec helper method resolved at runtime, so Sorbet's static analysis treats described_class::Worker as a dynamic constant reference and cannot resolve it (Dynamic constant references are unsupported, https://srb.help/5001). Reference the constant by its fully-qualified name instead. A bare described_class (with no :: constant lookup) is an ordinary method call and is left alone.

Autocorrection replaces described_class with the constant that the enclosing example group describes. It is marked unsafe (SafeAutoCorrect: false) because the rewrite relies on the described constant being a statically-written name; review the result before committing. In particular, a constant defined on an ancestor of the described class is qualified against the described class itself, which is correct at runtime but which Sorbet cannot resolve through the inheritance chain -- re-point those to the defining ancestor by hand.

Examples:

# bad
RSpec.describe Payments::Processor do
  describe described_class::Worker do
  end
end

# good
RSpec.describe Payments::Processor do
  describe Payments::Processor::Worker do
  end
end

# good - `RSpec.describe self` resolves to the enclosing namespace
module Payments
  RSpec.describe self do
    it { expect(Payments::TIMEOUT).to eq(5) }
  end
end

# good - a bare `described_class` is not a constant reference
RSpec.describe Payments::Processor do
  subject { described_class.new }
end
