rspec-puppet unit test for define type using resource

Question

I have written a user define type which downloads a file using wget and stores in /root. I have used exec type to accomplish this. the code is working well with puppet apply, now when I am trying to write rspec test for the same, i am facing issues and getting failure messages. Please find the site.pp, download.pp, init_spec.rb file.

I am new to rspec and puppet and unable to find a solution for this, kindly help with suggestion on how to write the rspec test for this define type.

manifest/site.pp

$link='https://rpm.nodesource.com/pub_8.x/el/7/x86_64/'
$rpm = 'nodejs-8.0.0-1nodesource.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm'

node_js::download{'execute wget':
                comm=>'/usr/bin/wget',
                url=>"${link}${rpm}",
                path=>'/root',
            }

modules/node_js/manifests/download.pp

define node_js::download($comm=undef,
                         $url=undef,
                         $path=undef){

$validate= "nodejs-8.0.0-1nodesource.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm"

    exec { 'execute wget':
    command => "${comm} ${url}",
        cwd => "${path}",
     unless => "/usr/bin/ls  ${path} | grep ${validate}",

    }
}

rspec test file

modules/node_js/spec/defines/init_spec.rb

require 'spec_helper'
describe 'node_js::download', :type => 'define' do

  let(:title) { 'node_js::download' }


  it {
    is_expected.to contain_exec('/usr/bin/wget h*tps://rpm.nodesource.com/pub_8.x/el/7/x86_64/nodejs-8.0.0-1nodesource.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm').with({
         'cwd' => '/root/' ,
    })
  }

end
