Classes and modules are the units of reuse and release. It is therefore considered good practice to annotate every class and module with a brief comment outlining its responsibilities.

Example

Given

class Dummy
  # Do things...
end

Reek would emit the following warning:

test.rb -- 1 warning:
  [1]:Dummy has no descriptive comment (IrresponsibleModule)

Fixing this is simple - just an explaining comment:

# The Dummy class is responsible for ...
class Dummy
  # Do things...
end

Checks that required_ruby_version of gemspec and TargetRubyVersion of .rubocop.yml are equal. Thereby, RuboCop to perform static analysis working on the version required by gemspec.

Example:

# When `TargetRubyVersion` of .rubocop.yml is `2.3`.

# bad
Gem::Specification.new do |spec|
  spec.required_ruby_version = '>= 2.2.0'
end

# bad
Gem::Specification.new do |spec|
  spec.required_ruby_version = '>= 2.4.0'
end

# good
Gem::Specification.new do |spec|
  spec.required_ruby_version = '>= 2.3.0'
end

# good
Gem::Specification.new do |spec|
  spec.required_ruby_version = '>= 2.3'
end

# good
Gem::Specification.new do |spec|
  spec.required_ruby_version = ['>= 2.3.0', '< 2.5.0']
end

This cop checks for missing top-level documentation of classes and modules. Classes with no body are exempt from the check and so are namespace modules - modules that have nothing in their bodies except classes, other modules, or constant definitions.

The documentation requirement is annulled if the class or module has a "#:nodoc:" comment next to it. Likewise, "#:nodoc: all" does the same for all its children.

Example:

# bad
class Person
  # ...
end

# good
# Description/Explanation of Person class
class Person
  # ...
end

This cop checks whether some constant value isn't a mutable literal (e.g. array or hash).

Example:

# bad
CONST = [1, 2, 3]

# good
CONST = [1, 2, 3].freeze
