The pain:

```
val someString = "how are you today?"
val expectedWordsInStringList = List("how", "you")

```

How can i match that the string contains all the expected words ?

```
  //would of liked to have: (there is no method containAllElements)
  someString must containAllElements(expectedWordsInStringList) 

```

Ended up writing this test (and not happy about the result)

```
class HowToMatchListOfMatcher extends Specification {
  "HowToMatchListOfMatcher" should {
    "not use reduce to match on list of matchers" in {

      val testString = "some string with 1 and 2"

      val containList:List[String] = List("1", "2")
      val matcherList:List[Matcher[String]] = List(contain("1"), contain("2"))

      def matchAll(matcherList: List[Matcher[String]]) = matcherList.reduce((m1,m2)=> m1 and m2)

      //how can i match this without reduce ? or with using the containList
      testString must matchAll(matcherList)

    }
  }
}

```
