I finally got around to upgrading from 0.8.2 (!!). I had a spec which looked like specify "should render abc123" do controller.should_render :text => "abc123" get :key end With 1.0.0, the new spec is it "should render abc123" do get :key response.should render_text("abc123") end However it doesn''t work, giving me the error: undefined

However, the object-relational mapping (ActiveRecord) and simplicity of the Rails framework and Ruby in general really appeals to me. .NET currently doesn''t have something like Rails'' ORM - atleast not out-of-the-box.
