Hello. I just started to use rspec stories. I followed the following
tutorial:
http://www.tomtenthij.co.uk/2008/1/25/rspec-plain-text-story-runner-on-a-fresh-rails-app
So I implemented my story and some of the steps are:
(...)
When "user creates a product" do
post "products/new", :name => @name
end
Then "there should be a product named ''$name''" do
|name|
Product.find_by_name(name).should_not be_nil
end
When I run the story i get:
(...)
When user creates a product
Then there should be a product named ''Book'' (PENDING)
1 scenarios: 0 succeeded, 0 failed, 1 pending
Pending Steps:
1) Creating a product (success): there should be a product named
''Book''
The problem is that there is no message for why the step is pending,
so how can i know how to fix that? I included "require
''ruby-debug''" in
my helper.rb, but it didn''t help. Any ideas? Thanks.

thanks for your reply, Matthew. i tried and the result is the same. the tutorial even refers to that: "It is good practice to put quotes around your values so that there are less cases where the regexp matcher will get confused and split things up in a way you did not expect." i tried to manually debug the calls and apparently the command post "products/new", :name => @name is not invoking the controller''s method, but i can''t say why. i even tried post_via_redirect, but it didn''t help either. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

When "blahblahblahblah" And "blahblahblah" Then "blahblahblah" I mean.. the fact that it was raising a "not implemented" implies that it''s too do with the parsing, it''s nothing to do with the content of the step... here''s an example I made earlier of a story.rb rather than a story.plaintext http://pastie.org/221205 -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

you are totally right, Matthew, i had a parsing problem and was missing the point of "pending". thanks for your help.> > When "blahblahblahblah" > And "blahblahblah" > Then "blahblahblah" > > I mean.. > the fact that it was raising a "not implemented" > implies that it''s too do with the parsing, > it''s nothing to do with the content of the step... > > here''s an example I made earlier of a story.rb rather than a > story.plaintext > http://pastie.org/221205-- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
