Subject: [rspec-users] Specifying spec and output format inline?


Howdy from Austin, TX.
 
I''m new to rspec, and am currently using it with the Watir testing
library for web testing.  I''m moving along at an ok pace so far, but I
had a question.
 
I just realized I could require ''spec'' and forego running
scripts from
the command line.  However, this limits me in my output formats.  Is
there a way that I can specify which format to use and where to save it
inside the script?
 
I''ve included the full script below.
 
Thanks,
Adam
 
$LOAD_PATH.unshift File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), ''..'') if
$0 =__FILE__   #set the local dir path
 
require ''watir''
require ''spec''
 
describe "Project name" do
  before(:all) do
    @browser = Watir::IE.new
    @browser.goto "http://localhost:8080/admin_frnPkg_add.html
<http://localhost:8080/admin_frnPkg_add.html> "
  end #begin
 
  ## Basic page validation
  it "should have the logo" do
    @browser.image(:src, /cp_logo.gif/).should_not be_nil
  end #logo
 
  it "should have login/logout text" do
    login = @browser.table(:index, 1)[2][1].text
    login.should =~ (/Log/)
  end #login/logout
 
  after(:all) do
    @browser.close
  end #after
end #Project name

It sort of depends - how do you plan to run them?

I run my scripts from a windows environment and execute them manually in
SciTE with F5.  I also have a Rails app that runs them from the web via
a batch file on the server, but I can easily change this batch to
include the parameters.

So, I''m looking for some declaration that can be included in the spec
file itself, sort of like the require ''spec'' statement.

Thanks,
Adam
