Cruisecontrolrb users - Jan 2008 - UI Integration with RSpec?

Hi all,

Is there any integration with testing tools such as RSpec or
Test::Unit planned?  I see that the cruise task is run correctly, but
the tests show up underneath the build log.   Ideally I''d like them to
show up the same way that they do in ''java'' CruiseControl, in
their
own section of tests.

Will.

Hi Will - what do you mean when you say "show up"? As in literally
appear on the screen? I think what you''re describing is probably easy
to do, but I''ve never used the Java CC. You mean that when CC.rb does
a build, you want to be able to see the error output from any failed
tests or specs as formatted HTML, linked from the build details page?

(I''m not one of the CC.rb devs, I''m just trying to figure out
the question.)

I tried to find something on the CruiseControl site: this is closest I
could get.

http://cruisecontrol.sourceforge.net/reporting/jsp/buildresultsjspscreenshot.gif

You see how there''s a tab for unit tests, and it says all unit tests
passed?  If one of the tests fail, then you see a single line, and
then if you click on that line it expands to show the stacktrace.

That''s probably pretty easy to add. It depends on whether or not CC.rb
captures the test/spec output.

Of course. stdin/stdout of the build process is redirected to
projects/MyProject/build-NNN/build.log file.

I think maybe Will just wants RSpec failures to show up under "Test
Failures and Errors" the way Test::Unit failures do, as requested in
http://jira.public.thoughtworks.org/browse/CCRB-102

It''s also in http://jira.public.thoughtworks.org/browse/CCRB-169,
which seems to be a dupe, though the discussion of enhancing the
artifacts directory under CCRB-102 makes it sound like the scope may
go beyond the requested "As a Dev, I would like CC.rb to display rspec
failures in ''Test Failures and Errors'', so that I can use
rspec."

Will, have you seen how ccrb displays Test::Unit failures, and would
that be sufficient for your needs using RSpec?

-hume.

I''ve never seen how ccrb displays Test::Unit failures, but if
there''s
some facility for displaying Test Failures and Errors in their own
section, I''d like rSpec to work there.  I think that would work
perfectly well -- I just don''t want people to have to trawl through
stack traces.

Will.
