Hi
OK it looks like I'm a convert to BDD :-) Well in principle at least
- let's see how it turns out.
I've just set up a test environment for the Hobo plugin according to
this guide:
http://www.pluginaweek.org/2006/11/24/plugin-tip-of-the-week-
testing-your-plugins-the-right-way/
And then adapted the setup to work with RSpec
In the plugin I now have:
/spec
/spec/unit -- all my specs are here in a hierarchy that mirrors my
plugin's lib directory
/spec/rails_root -- a complete Rails app, minus a few things
/spec/spec.opts
/spec/spec_helper.rb -- which looks like this:
--------------
ENV['RAILS_ENV'] ||= 'mysql'
require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/rails_root/config/environment.rb'
# Run the migrations
ActiveRecord::Migrator.migrate("#{RAILS_ROOT}/db/migrate")
require 'spec/rails'
Spec::Runner.configure do |config|
config.use_transactional_fixtures = true
config.use_instantiated_fixtures = false
config.fixture_path = File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/fixtures/"
config.before(:each, :behaviour_type => :controller) do
raise_controller_errors
end
end
--------------
It all seems to be working, but I haven't kicked the tires to hard yet.
Just thought I'd run this setup by you for comments.
Tom
