rspec users - May 2009 - Running single spec files -- how?

Before upgrading from 1.1.11 to 1.2.4 I used to be able to do this:

  ruby spec/models/user_spec.rb

Now it looks like you have to do

  script/spec spec/models/user_spec.rb

Or something like this, which is actually kinda cool:

  script/spec spec/*/user*

Is that correct? Am I missing something?

There was a change that broke this behaviour, but it was documented in 
the History and how to get back the old behaviour:

=== Version 1.2.0 / 2009-03-15

* warnings:

  * If you use the ruby command to run specs instead of the spec 
command, you''ll
    need to require ''spec/autorun'' or they won''t run.
This won''t affect
you if
    you use the spec command or the Spec::Rake::SpecTask that ships with 
RSpec.



So... just add a require ''spec/autorun'' in your spec_helper.rb
and you
should be good to go.

HTH,

Ben

I would assume that would work if you are requiring test-unit interop  
mode.  I believe in previous versions of rspec it was automatically  
included if the constants Test && Test::Unit were present (which AR  
automatically adds once AR is required).

I''ve always kept around this alias:

alias ss=''./script/spec -O spec/spec.opts''

So I can do:

ss spec/unit/models/event_*
