FYI - Jim Weirich just released an rspec-compatible version of FlexMock. For those of you using trunk, you can now use either FlexMock, Mocha, or RSpec''s built-in mocking framework by saying: Spec::Runner.configure do |config| config.mock_with :flexmock # or :mocha or :rspec (default) end The choice is yours. Mock in peace. Cheers, David ---------- Forwa...

Just curious - now that rspec (as of 0.9) let''s you choose your mock framework, how many of you are actually using (or planning to use) mocha or flexmock? Anybody planning to use any other mock framework besides rspec, mocha or flexmock? Thanks, David

I saw in one of Dave C.''s comments to a ticket that "our current plan is to deprecate the mocking framework." I hadn''t heard anything about that, but then again I haven''t paid super close attention to the list. Are we planning on dumping the mock framework in favor of using Mocha (or any other framework one might want to plug in?). Pat

I was reading through the FlexMock docs and noticed the expectation method .mock, which returns the original mock associated with an expectation. It looks really handy for writing nice all-in-one mocks like: mock_user = mock(''User'').expects(:first_name).returns(''Jonah'').mock So I started playin...

In some of my unit tests, I find the need to set today to a different value than the actual today. For example, to test the model method "balance_of_today", which takes no argument, I want to have Date.today be a specific date for the purpose of testing. In other words, I want to do something like this: mock_today(Date.new(2008, 2, 1)) do ... test code... end My implementation for

Hi, I''ve been reading with interest the threads trying to integrate Mocha and Stubba with RSpec. So far, I''ve made the two changes in spec_helper.rb suggested, but discovered another one that neither of the archives mentions: If you use traditional mocking: object = mock or the stub shortcut : object = stub(:method => :result), you run into namespace conflicts with

...need to do that, should I? So it seems to only occur when I assign the mock to a constant. So, even though MyModel.count is stubbed in the before block, the mock reports an unexpected message. Note however the first example passes. I had difficulty figuring out the cause of this, so I just gave FlexMock a shot (since it''s so easy to swap out). FlexMock passed both examples(not that, that alone signifies a bug in rSpec). So, my question: Is this a bug in the built in mocking framework, or am I doing it wrong? :) -Matt -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubb...

Hi experts, I picked up a copy of the rspec book and wrote some tests in spec/lib and spec/models for my Rails 2.3.8 code. I was using rspec 2.5.1, rspec-core 2.5.0, rspec-expectations 2.5.0 et. al. But I realised that the rspec-rails version I am using is meant for Rails3. Which version of rspec-rails should I use for Rails 2.3.8? Best, Radhesh -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi guys, Would you mind if I ask how Flex Mock and Mocha sit together? They compete directly? I read that Flex Mock was built into Rails 1.2. Is there a reason to use Mocha instead of Flex Mock? Tks Greg

Hi Just wrote myself a Date.extract_from_rails_hash to handle parsing the "date(1i)", "date(2i)" parameters created in the controller params. I''ve got a method that needs to call this either once or twice, depending on the contents of the form (one section of the form is rendered conditionally). So I had two specs for the case where the second form section

...I remove the first line, spec exits correctly with the message "1 example, 0 failures". With the first line, instead, it hangs, and I have to press Ctrl+C to make it go on (of course, in this case it says: "1 example, 1 failure"). If I use another mock framework (I tried with flexmock), then everythings works. If I replace :type with anything else in the call to stub, then everything works. I tried searching google, this mailing list''s archives and QtRuby forum, but I found nothing about this. Am I doing something wrong or is it a RSpec or QtRuby problem? I'...

Hello, I added the "before_filter" to my controllers to require a login of the user. Here''s an example of my Unit Controller with the added before_filter: IN THE ATTACHED FILE When executing the tests with rake test, I get different error messages. To show you my errors, I only executed the unit controller test with the following line: ruby -Itest

...d, I suspect I''m missing something about how rspec works... one issue that isn''t clear from the rspec site is the scope of variables in a spec file... Final Q: Has there been a resolution of the Mock issue, i.e will it rspec implementation stay in rspec or not. Which of mocha and flexmock are most compatible (i.e. work) with rspec, or is there a ''better'' mock project to use with rspec. Appreciate any help or insight you can offer.

Hi, I''m pretty new to Rspec, so hope someone can help me out with this. I''m leveraging a couple pre-existing applications in my current project, both have fairly robust test suites in Rspec already. However, one is using Rspec''s builit in mocking, and the other is using mocha. If I set config.mock_with mocha in spec_helper.rb, then all of the rspec mocks fail. If I

...6973.html Additional changes since 0.9 beta-1: * Made Spec::Ui *much* easier to install. It will be released separately. Check out trunk/spec_ui/examples * HTML reports now include a syntax highlighted snippet of the source code where the spec failed (needs the syntax gem) * Added [#9735] support flexmock (thanks to Jim Weirich for his modifications to flexmock to support this) * Spec::Rails controller specs will no longer let mock exception ripple through to the response. * Fixed [#9260] IvarProxy does not act like a hash. * Applied [#9458] The rspec_resource generator does not take into account cl...

...f_a_model) and the implementation does this: obj.msg(containing_model.association_proxy) the expectation fails. This is because the comparison that rspec mocks make is: expected == actual which, in this case ends up being: mock_of_a_model == association_proxy As it turns out, mocha and flexmock do this the same way, which means that this will fail in any of the three frameworks. So here''s the mock-ethics question of the week: Should the comparison be changed to: actual == expected or actual == expected || expected == actual or ... neither? I have arguments for all thre...

Hey WWW::Mechanize users, I''ve been using Mechanize for about 3 or 4 months now, and I''m rather enjoying it. I''ve done scraping in PHP & Python, starting with raw text and HTTP requests, moving up to regex and Curl, and finally landed myself here, making me much more productive when scraping pages. At the moment, I''m in the middle of a decent sized

Hi guys, got this problem with creating such a thing... hope anyone could help.. the problem: ok, now i have this mock object that would simulate a external rpc call. eg require ''models/xmlrpc_agent'' class XmlrpcAgent def create(params) 200 end end but the value of the value returned is fixed. which is quite hard for me to test the controller when different

Hi, What's the purpose of test/mocks?
