rspec users - May 2010 - What are the common causes of rspec hanging?

I''m responsible for a relatively large RoR application, and have been
struggling with intermittent rspec "hangs" for over a year despite
many debugging attempts.  I realize that we can''t debug my personal
application here, but I''m wondering if other people could answer this
thread and mention the types of bugs that have resulted in rspec hangs
for me and other people with the same problem to consider.

Thanks

Russell

You might want to try running the specs with --format specdoc so you can do a
better post mortem. Also remember you can look at log/test.log to see what was
happening when it hung.
