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

...eld) is added to a group. I assume I can?t use the auto_complete ajax calls from within Cucumber. But I wondered if I could make a step that would update the value of the hidden field (as if I had selected the user from the auto_complete field). According to this documentation (http://gitrdoc.com/brynary/webrat/tree/master/classes/Webrat/Scope.html) there should be a set_hidden_field method. But the method no longer appears to be in the webrat/core/scope.rb file Based on the above documentation the method should be # File lib/webrat/core/scope.rb, line 53 def set_hidden_field(field_locator, op...

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!

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.

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

...on how to set up a Firefox profile containing the exception and force Selenium to use it: http://blog.thirstybear.co.uk/2008/05/selenium-and-https.html But that won''t work when using Cucumber/Webrat, because as far as I can tell from the Webrat Selenium docs. http://github.com/brynary/webrat/blob/master/lib/webrat/selenium.rb Webrat will "automatically start the Selenium Java server process and an instance of Mongrel when a test is run". So there is no way that I can see to force Webrat to launch the Selenium server process with the custom Firefox profile. So I...

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.

...And that will override the default behavior. I''m posting this because I hope it might be of immediate use to others using plain text stories right now, and also because I would like to consider possibilities for getting this functionality into RSpec core.

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
