Ironruby core - Dec 2008 - What are the options to write tests, currently ?

Hello,
I''m documenting myself to see what are the various options currently
available to write IronRuby code to unit-tests C# assemblies.

I gave MSpec a try and it''s already fine
(http://gist.github.com/30685).

Test::Unit seems to work well too (good work!) after a first test.

Did anyone play with RSpec, Shoulda or anything else ?

cheers

Still one or two outstanding issues around RSpec, but that is what you
should be aiming for :)   However, even with those issues fixed,
running it on an actual system might not be the best idea due to some
performance issues.

MSpec is a good, if not very limited, and is what the team are using.
I haven''t looked at Test::Unit implementation.

I''ve been using Bacon without any problems after I commented out

#           e.backtrace.find_all { |line| line !~
/bin\/bacon|\/bacon\.rb:\d+/ }.
#             each_with_index { |line, i|
#             ErrorLog << "\t#{line}#{i==0 ? ": #@name -
#{description}" : ""}\n"
#           }

I got RSpec to work after following somebody else''s instructions on
this list, but it was too slow to be useful.

I wrote a very basic "simple_autotest" script to run "rake
spec"
whenever a source file is saved.

Thanks,
Jeff
