[rspec-users] rdebug spec ?

Can you run rdebug on specs?

I get errors when I try:

$ rdebug spec ./spec/models/select_option_spec.rb
./spec: Is a directory - ./spec (Errno::EISDIR)
         from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ruby-debug-0.9.3/bin/ 
rdebug:136:in `debug_load''
         from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ruby-debug-0.9.3/bin/ 
rdebug:136
         from /opt/local/bin/rdebug:16:in `load''
         from /opt/local/bin/rdebug:16

Try the following:

require ''ruby-debug'' at top of your spec file.

then, put ''debugger'' inside your example block.

That worked for me, also in combination with spec -e (just to run a
specific example to pinpoint the problem).

Since this appears to be for Rails, get ruby-debug instead. Then you just
have to put ''debugger'' in where you want to enter your code.
It works great.

Otherwise, it may still work, but it will probably require configuration.

The other option is to see what rdebug''s version of the -I switch is.
For
ruby (command line) -I followed by the library path makes that library get
loaded.

[rspec-users] rdebug spec ?

As I said in #ruby-lang  (I thought it may be helpful to someone  
else)...

For those of you using textmate, I''ve setup a snippet called rdebug,  
which adds the following:

require ''rubygems''; require ''ruby-debug'';
debugger

Usually I only do this as a last resort.

My workflow goes as follows:  I run my spec suite for the newest  
spec.  If it fails and I simply cannot figure out why, I add this  
snippet before the line which fails (inside the spec), and then rerun  
the spec suite.  Since I use a failure file, it will only run this  
spec, and dump me right before the spec fails.

Hope that helps,

Scott

ruby-debug works nice, I can put the breakpoint in my app rather than  
the spec examples.
thanks

rdebug is the command that gets installed with ruby-debug, so we''re
all talking about the same thing. To run a single spec file, just do
this:

rdebug ./spec/models/select_option_spec.rb

You can put ''debugger'' in your files or not. It''s up
to you. In
practice sometimes I do, sometimes I don''t.

Cheers,
David

[rspec-users] rdebug spec ?

I''ve enjoyed it. Sometimes it''s also nice to drop the
breakpoint in the spec
to inspect the response object. Glad I could help.
