Hey all, I was just wondering if any one has played around with getting autotest''s rspec integration working with rspec''s HTML output. I really like how in the rspec textmate bundle the context of the failing code is inlined with the failing spec along with the exact line highlighted and a link to the exact spot in reference. However, I rarely use this nice output since

...with_text_field_for(:something_else_that_should_break_it) end end Could someone please tell me what the painfully obvious thing that I am doing wrong is? Or are the rspec_on_rails_matchers not working for other people? This is my sample app that is giving me this odd behaviour: http://benmabey.com/rspec_on_rails_matchers_test_app.tar.bz Thanks in advance. -Ben

Hi, Does the Story Runner work on edge rails? I thought that is what the example app was using but I am on the latest Rails and latest rSpec revisions and I am having problems. When I call ''render_template'' in a story I get the following: NoMethodError: undefined method `render_template'' for #<ActionController::Integration::Session:0x327d974> Do I need to

Cucumberists (and RSpec Classic users ;): How can we convert a Cucumber feature file into HTML with syntax highlighting? Not the test-runner output; that''s preprocessed so it does not match the input file... Tx! -- Phlip

Hi! I wonder does anybody planning to go beyond the default html formatter/report? The current html report is nice and green but what about to go a little silly and enable also user input. For example to let customer to add a new pending spec, comments etc. I feel it might be mentally easier for some customers to jump into spec world when it is possible to give input at "the same

I recently wrote a matcher for testing AR associations which allows you to specify things like: Foo.should have_many(:bars).through(:bazes) I''m pretty darned proud of it and a couple of people have suggested that I should submit it to the rspec_on_rails project. Before I go to the trouble of writing out rdoc and fully spec''ing it, I just wanted to make sure this was

Hi all, where I work we''ve cooked up a kind of ghetto profiler for our specs. It basically just does this: time = Time.now # run the spec puts "woah! dude. long spec." if time > 1.second I''m simplifying here. I think the threshold is actually 0.1 seconds, and we use more precise language, and highlight the spec in red via terminal colors, etc. But the way it works

I tried checking it out today using instructions here: http://rspec.rubyforge.org/tools/extensions/editors/textmate.html I get a ''svn: Connection closed unexpectedly''. Did it move or is it down?

Hey all, Does anyone know how to disable the cucumber autotest support on a project? With this commit: http://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/commit/93470e2580b5e3cfe0c8eb3fce86e21bf8afa219 The cucumber features are worked into the autotest cycle automatically. This is cool, but on some projects I don''t think it fits well with my red->green->refactor cycle. Any ideas on

I finally plunked down for the beta RSpec bundle and I''m working through the initial example. Although I''m a fairly experienced RSpec user, I''m stlll learning new tricks. Anyway, I''m going though the mastermind example, and everything is going well, except that I decided to also try out the Textmate bundle for Cucumber. I decided to use Ben Mabey''s

Hey list, Anyone have experience with acts_as_xapian and Cucumber? I''m struggling with updating xapian''s index, to actually "find" fluff that has been indexed.. In a scenario, I''m adding a bunch of articles, and in the actual search step, I run: When "I search for \"$query\"" do |query| %x[rake RAILS_ENV=test xapian:update_index]

Hi all, I have read Dan North''s post ''Whats in a Story?'' (http://dannorth.net/whats-in-a-story) but I am still having a hard time knowing when I should break requirements up into separate stories or keep them as scenarios. I am currently trying to write a story (stories) for the registration process of a site. The registration process is a multistep process that

How does a person test private methods? Is there a way to declare them as private, but retain any tests that were written during the initial development? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Trying to spec the following but don''t know if I''m using the right matcher. How do I spec? Plz, sugar on tops. Audience.stats - should have a stats of 80 when passed a flux of 10 - should return an error when passed a string (ERROR - 1) 1) TypeError in ''Audience.stats should return an error when passed a string'' String can''t be coerced into Fixnum

We''ve just added rspec stories to our CruiseControl.rb build. When there''s a failing scenario we see the failure in the log output, but it doesn''t cause the CruiseControl build to fail. We''ve also just upgraded to the latest rspec version, 1.1.4, which fixes rspec bug 228, but the CC.rb build is still passing. Has anyone got failing rspec stories making

So I''ve just started working on a rails project which currently has something like 7500 LOC. All of the tests are written in Test::Unit, although the test coverage is pretty poor: rcov says that 25% of the code is covered, while rake stats shows the code to test ratio as 1:0.1 (800 lines of test code). I guess I''m wondering what would generally be advisable here. Is it

Hi all, Where can we add tickets for Cucumber? While trying to migrate a current project I ran into a snag.. specially that cucumber does not support multi-line steps like the edge rspec story runner (which makes sense since this was such a new feature to the story runner.) Anyways, I don''t have enough time at the moment to dig into it myself so I''d like to at least log it.

Hey all, What is the easiest way to include rpec''s mocking framework into a story so I can use it? I want to use it to stub out a Net::HTTP method so I''m not making API calls every time I run my story. :) Thanks, Ben

Hi All, I''m trying to incorporate our stories into our build for our cruisecrontrol.rb projects and it looks like the Story Runner always returns a 0 (zero) no matter if the tests pass or fail. This is in contrast to the actual and expected behavior of the spec command which will return a 0 or a 1 depending on whether specs pass or fail. Am I doing something wrong with the story runner
