This doesn''t work for me on 1.1.3 I have something like this: describe Support do describe "attached image" do it "should validate presence of attachment" do # test stuff ... end it "should validate that attachment is an image" do # test stuff ... end it "should cleanly save attachment" do # test stuff ... end end end Here''s what I''m doing and the results # It doesn''t test when I use the text from the describe block jays-imac:ov2 jay$ ruby spec/models/support_spec.rb -e "attached image" Finished in 0.015778 seconds 0 examples, 0 failures # it works fine with the test from an example jays-imac:ov2 jay$ ruby spec/models/support_spec.rb -e "should validate presence of attachment" .
