Hi I''m writing small replacement for ActiveRecord to support columns oriented databases (HBase). I put all of my code into /lib folder and created small rake file into /lib/tasks to support unit testing: #----- start of file ----- namespace :test do Rake::TestTask.new(:lib) do |t| t.libs << "lib" t.libs << "test" t.pattern = ''test/lib/**/*_test.rb'' t.verbose = true end Rake::Task[''test:lib''].comment = "Run the tests in test/lib" end #---- end of file ------- Now i''m able to write unit tests in /test/lib. My main problem is that my unit tests now do not see any rails loaded classes, e.g. one of my unit tests uses ActiveRecord::Errors but i''m getting : "NameError: uninitialized constant ActiveRecord::Errors" Do I need to include (require) all rails classes in my unit tests just to be sure that everything works fine? (in general I included rubygems and active_record but still getting same error)? Any ideas, comments, ...?
