Fellow hecklers, Just spent a while getting this working. Turns out heckle will heckle a whole module and sub-modules with one call, so with a bit of string matching, you can build a nice tool to heckle your whole app and report any failures. Was going to post to the list, as the first version was about 4 lines long, but I''ve embellished it slightly (I got carried away), so decided link to it instead, where you can view it in all its syntax- highlighted glory: <http://aviewfromafar.net/2007/11/1/rake-task-for-heckling-your-specs> Let me know if anyone finds it useful Ashley -- blog @ http://aviewfromafar.net/ linked-in @ http://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleymoran currently @ home
