Hey guys, We developed this plugin while writing my first real set of RSpec stories. It''s still missing a lot of functionality, but it''s useful to us as is, so I''m shipping 0.1.0. (Patches welcome. :) ) Code is available at: http://svn.eastmedia.net/public/plugins/webrat/ What do you think? -Bryan Here''s the README:

Now that RSpec is nearing 1 dot oh, are there any plans to implement an integration testing equivalent in RSpec On Rails?

Hi all, We''ve recently been kicking around different ideas for simulating user behaviour for the purposes of load testing our backend. We hit on the idea of having user stories do double duty for both verifying behaviour and (if selected stories were driven en-masse by a distributed network of clients) for application load testing. I googled around a bit and didn''t find

I am using auto_complete to provide a list of persons from which the user can select one. On selection from the auto_complete list, a hidden field is updated with the id of the selected person. This is all wrapped in a form, that then can be submitted by the user (by clicking the provided submit button). On submission, the person (based on the id in the hidden field) is added to a group. I assume

I added cucumber to my rails project using the following commands: git submodule add git://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber.git \ vendor/plugins/cucumber ruby script/generate cucumber git submodule add git://github.com/brynary/webrat.git \ vendor/plugins/webrat git submodule add git://github.com/dchelimsky/rspec.git \ vendor/plugins/rspec git submodule add

It doesn''t seem like my controller specs are calling my middleware on requests. Has anyone figured out a good way to test middlware with rspec? I''m thinking something like rails'' rails/actionpack/test/controller/session/mem_cache_store_test.rb but with rspec... any thoughts? Thanks!

If I have a step matcher defined as so: Given "a user named $username" do |username| .... end Is there a way to call it from another step? For example: Given "a user named $username with a blog post |username| given_a_user_named(username) # calls existing step code # create a blog post end Cheers, -- Bryan Helmkamp http://brynary.com -- My blog

This is related to Selenium/Watir usage along side webrat in story testing. MHS_Testing and Rspec-ui provide some great help for testing through frameworks like Selenium/Watir. But there is something missing, Webrat has changed the landscape somewhat with Acceptance Tests/Story Driven development. Now I have a choice: 1. Tests and rails process run as one test process (Webrat) 2. Use

Hey all, I just found Bryan Helmkamp''s (of webrat fame) slides on a presentation he did at GoRuCo 2008: http://www.brynary.com/2008/4/26/story-driven-development-slides-posted On slides 21-24 he talks about writing good stories and shows gives two examples.. the way not to do it and the way to do it. You can also see the video of the presentation at confreaks

Hi, I''m trying to start using cucumber. I''ve done login, logout scenarious, but stumbled in CAPTCHA validation on user registration page. As I get I should stub CAPTCHA validation method. I guess I should implement stubbing Given step or include stubbing code in Before filter? I use validates_captcha gem, thus instance method to stub is module ValidatesCaptcha module

Inspired by Nick Evans'' RSpec progress bar[1], I had a little crack at implementing the progress bar for cucumber, ''cause I want to know how long a break I can take while the features are running :) It''s in my fork, in the coverage_formatter branch: http://github.com/mattwynne/cucumber/tree/master It will dump failing feature, scenario, step and the exception as

Has anybody had any luck getting Cucumber, Webrat and Selenium to play nicely together for SSL sites? My test environment: - nginx front-end accepting SSL requests, proxying them to mongrel back-end - mongrel back-end accepting normal HTTP requests - application routes configured with ":protocol => ''https''" so that URLs generated with "_url"

Hi! I''m using cucumber + selenium and I love it. However I''m looking to add some methods (example: click_and_wait etc) to the lib. Therefore looked around a bit and I got two questions: Firstly about rspec-ui, I''m a little confused, does rspec-ui overlap with its propose with webrat with cucumber or I''m missing a point? Secondly, are there any plans to

For those interested .... rake spec:models seems to clone the test database from development. If your dev db is empty, the models task fails mysteriously. Anyway, to make sure your dev db is at the current migration version, I added this dependency in lib/tasks task ''spec:models'' => ''db:migrate'' Now the dev db is migrated up with each test pass.

Below I''ve pasted a ./script/story command I''ve been using for about a week. It has three modes of operation: 1. ./script/story with no arguments will run all *.story files in the story path 2. ./script/story with a path or glob will run the specified stories 3. If input is passed in via STDIN, it runs that text as a story. This opens up story running via a simple interface

I''m just curious about this, since my solution involved stubbing a call to GeoIp. Is there a good rule of thumb for when you make exceptions to the ''no stubbing'' philosophy of Cucumber? My step was: "Given I am accessing the site from Japan," but I can think of other situations - mostly when interacting with web services, that I''d probably

What''s the status on a rake task for the story runner. If nothing is in progress, where could I start to try and build one? JD
