In cucumber, I use tags in a very simple, yet helpful (to me) way: to number my scenarios. For example: @1 Scenario: This is a scenario @2 Scenario: This is another scenario @3 Scenario: You get the idea This allows me to focus in on a single scenario quite easily while I''m working on it. Once I have that scenario working correctly, I will run the entire feature to make sure nothing else is broken. I''m finding that I''d like to do something quite similar in RSpec. For example, when I''m working on a model spec, I generally have contexts for what database fields should exist, what validations should exist, and what associations should exist. When I am later adding a couple of custom methods to do something, I''d like to be able to run the spec just for what I''m presently working on. Is this possible? Peace, Phillip

Is this possible?Not yet, but it will be in rspec-2. Internal syntax will be different, but we''ll try to make the CLI work like cuke''s. Cheers, David> > Peace, > Phillip
