I''d like to output my rcov data to the screen in ascii instead of html...is that possible using the rake spec:rcov command? Also, is there somewhere that will allow me to search the mail archives...I''m pretty sure someone else has asked similar questions. Thanks for the help.

Being new to testing and ruby, are there "standard" tests that can be done that test for things like cross site scripting and friends? If not, anyone have ideas on what I might do about testing those sorts of things? I''ll be using rails, also.

I knew as soon as I hit the enter key, the intelligence would feed my brain. The answer to this is: elements[1]["value"] Easy Peasy....and why not?

I''ve just started doing TDD/BDD and like the idea of mocks. So I set out to use them. The doc pages seem great, I setup the mock and then it just works. Here is what I am trying to do: Myuser is a non-rails model of user attributes. We are going to be mocking the connection to the ldap server. The user class has a login method that connects to the ldap server and if successful,

I''ve done a clean install of Ubuntu 7.04 server in 2 different machines and everytime I reboot the machine or manually run /etc/ init.d/mongrel_cluster restart/start the mongrels won''t start correctly. I have to manually start them by using mongrel_rails cluster::start from each app folder. I''ve been searching around and it looks like mongrel has some problems

If I have a low volume application and I want to use DigestAuth to limit access to the site, is it possible to do this with just mongrel/mongrel_cluster? I''m thinking I''m going to have to include Apache to make this work, and I heard that Rails 2 has methods to do this, but thought I''d ask.

Here is a short bash script I wrote to install rspec if your just using the tarballs like me. I probably should have written it in ruby, but there it is: #!/bin/bash RSPEC=rspec-1.0.4-pre-release.tgz RSPECRAILS=rspec_on_rails-1.0.4-pre-release.tgz [ -z "$1" ] && { echo echo "You must include a pathname" echo exit 1 } if [ -d $1/vendor/plugins ]; then cd

Just curious as to the functionality of puppet. Does Puppet ensure that a service is up and running as long as puppet is running? Ie, I want to make sure ssh is always running, if for some reason ssh get''s shut down, does puppet start it back up when it does it''s config sync run? Thanks! --------------------------------- Pinpoint customers who are looking for

I read this article (http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/mongrel-users/2006-April/000084.html) and it encouraged me to ask if it was possible to host a rails app that had parts of it that were perl cgi. Is there any possibility of getting something like this working using mongrel? The goal would be to have the rails app control the authentication and authorization, then execute some of the cgi

I can see that the file story_adapter.rb isn''t where it is supposed to be, however, I don''t know where it comes from in the first place. Can someone give me a hint here? I installed using: ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/CURRENT/rspec ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/CURRENT/rspec_on_rails The above is

Anyone willing to tar me up the 1.0.8 of rspec and rspec_on_rails? I''m interested in giving the story runner stuff a try. I really got to get svn going somehow.

I''ve been watching the thread where Luke is having to spend time defending his position about documentation. Can we get off that? From my perspective, Luke, I''m glad you have documented as much as you have. I''m one of the few who have been a little stymied by what documentation is available, but in no way do I believe berating you for your lack of documentation is a

I''m looking for some ideas about how to learn how to use puppet. One of my main concerns is dorking up the machine I''m testing it on. For this I''m using a VM. So that concern is mainly taken care of. If some of you experienced puppet users where going to do it all over, what parts would you try to learn first? I have successfully been able to get a cronjob added

OK. I thought I would start by looking at how cron.rb in the puppet lib/type works because what I''m trying to accomplish is similar. However, when looking through that, it wasn''t immediately obvious to me how or when the resulting cron file was getting written out. Is this getting stored up in some instance var or something? Maybe getting sent to standard out and some

A couple of things: - it is defaulted to 1.0.5, but if there was a "current" I could probably use that instead. - it seems like everyone might not use the rspec_on_rails piece...what do other think? - there are some other checks I could put in here, suggestions are welcome. - general code suggestions are welcome as well.

I''ve been going through Pat''s example story and noticed that there was no checking for a bad login. I assume this is because that would have made the article bigger and more complicated than it needed to be. So the question that comes of of this is: How do folks normally handle the negative case? My plan was to just use another scenario, but as a new person to BDD/TDD,

Hi all, In my view specs (for Rails), how can I get at instance variables that are set within my view? For example, if my view looks like this: <% @header = "My Header" -%> <div>some content</div> How can I get to @header from within my view spec? I''ve tried @header and assigns[:header] to no avail. TIA, Jeremy -- Jeremy Stephens Computer Systems
