rspec/rules/S3717/rule.adoc

``NotImplementedException`` is often used to mark methods which must be implemented for the overall functionality to be complete, but which the developer wants to implement later. That's as opposed to the ``NotSupportedException`` which is thrown by methods which are required by base classes or interfaces, but which are not appropriate to the current class.

This rule raises an exception when ``NotImplementedException`` is thrown.


== Noncompliant Code Example

void doTheThing()
