I am trying to follow this tutorial - http://www.lukeredpath.co.uk/2006/8/29/developing-a-rails-model-using-bdd-and-rspec-part-1 I installed the Rspec gem but I can''t install the RSpec On Rails plugin (the url is not goood). 1. the URL for the RSpec On Rails plugin is not good so I can''t install it. 2. What is the usage of this plugin? I think that it let me generate Rspec files like this: script/generate rspec_model User but I am not sure. 3. What is the different between a gem and a plugin? here is my guess: a gem is global to my machine and a plugin is added to a specific project. a plugin adds a generator to my project. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

great. it works.
now i am facing this problem-
I get this error when running Rspec-
NoMethodError in ''A user (in general) should be invalid without a
username''
undefined method `should_not_be_valid'' for #<User:0xb6fdbd4c>
./spec/models/user_spec.rb:9:
#the model - user.rb
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_presence_of :username
end
#the migration file - 001_create_users.rb
this is my migration file:
class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table :users do |t|
t.column :first_name, :string
t.column :last_name, :string
t.column :email, :string
t.column :description, :string
t.column :username, :string
t.column :encrypted_password, :string
t.column :salt, :string
end
end
def self.down
drop_table :users
end
end
#the rpec file - user_spec.rb
require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../spec_helper''
context "A user (in general)" do
setup do
@user = User.new
end
specify "should be invalid without a username" do
@user.should_not_be_valid
end
end

There''s probably a simple explanation for it, but it doesn''t make much sense to me at the moment. I tried changing the error message checked for and it had not affect. It should have failed. Here''s the code: ################################################################ class User < ActiveRecord::Base validates_presence_of :username , :message => "is required" end ################################################################ require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../spec_helper'' describe User do before do @user = User.new end it "should be invalid without a username" do @user.should_not be_valid @user.errors.on(:username).should equal?("is _this_should_fail_ required") @user.username = ''someusername'' @user.should be_valid end after do @user = nil end end ################################################################ Does anyone know what''s missing? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
