Ezra et al: I have this problem: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/backgroundrb-devel/2006-December/000578.html Any progress on it? Or are unit tests simply impossible for now? -- Phlip http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ZeekLand <-- NOT a blog!!

RSpeckers: I''m trying to install this into a Merb-generated RSpec rig: http://code.jeremyevans.net/doc/fixture_dependencies/ It requires inserting their test case into RSpec. This is the documented way to do it: describe ''Post'' do inherit FixtureDependencies::SequelTestCase And that leads to the syntax error in the subject line. (No stack trace is available

RSpec-ers: I''m aware this is quite the FAQ. I have probably asked it myself, but I just can''t Google up anything but others asking it. I grabbed the source to Beast, to use as a Rails project uninfluenced by me, or RSpec. Then I installed the CURRENT version of RSpec and rspec_on_rails, and set up a model spec on Post. Here''s the spec_helper.rb lines:

Railsters: ActiveRecord''s validation system puts other database systems to shame. However, the newbies might not know how to write a regexp that excludes a match, instead of tests for it. Understand - I''m just asking this question to help them. I have been using Regexps since ''grep'' on Xenix! But the newbies here might not know how to do this:

My latest stupid web trick, built, with love, in Rails: http://wordie.org Make lists of words. See who else likes the same words. Basically, it''s a dating site. Built on thanksgiving while half-watching football and launched yesterday. In other words, half-baked, but I thought some of you might find it mildly amusing.

Compiz: A colleague tempted me with compiz eye candy, and I tried it. Sorry, but many features were too far outside my usability comfort zone: - lazy mouse (in /this/ day and age???) - The Run window did not reliably pop up - minimize-all-windows turned everything black Some of those items were configurable. Some required multiple, diverse reconfigurations to fix. I couldn't fix the

Hi, I am using collection_select to build a drop down list. I would like to have the current value selected. How can I do that? My current code is straight from the example in Pragmatic Programmers book [2nd ed, p480] copying here for reference. <%= @users = User.find(:all, :order => "name" ) form.collection_select(:name, @users, :id, :name) %> I went through the api docs

Railsers: As usual for a product written very rapidly, most of its documentation assumes some other documentation told you something critical. For example, the file form_helper.rb tempts me with this documentation: # <% form_for :person, @person, :url => { :action => "update" }, :builder => LabellingFormBuilder do |f| %> That''s beautiful. Now what do I

I have not been able to access the UJS site, http://www.ujs4rails.com/ for two days. Does that mean there are problems or that it has been incorporated into Rails core? In general, what do you think of using UJS instead of RJS? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google

Is there an advanced rails mailing list? I''ve noticed that much of the issues on this list are for beginner to intermediate issues, and posters asking more advanced issues are rarely answered. I still find this list to be very useful, but I would love to find a community of more advanced RoR folks to discuss expert level implementations. -Kevin

I have the following question. It sounds weird, but still. We all have app/views/say.rhtml or any other template for the view. It can include of course instructions in <% %> So the question is next -- is it possible to use .rhtml as a view which we just uploaded? I.e. user uploads his own .rhtml, controller saves it in the database, and shows the view using it. Is it possible at all?

I am parsing XML streams with ruby-libxml using the XML::Reader class. Several have invalid UTF-8 characters. I need a tutorial or at least some hints on how to recover and continue the parsing.

Railsters: I just installed fixture_scenarios ... http://fixture-scenarios.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/fixture_scenarios ...into a project with some RSpec specifications. They all went kablooey. I didn''t even create a scenario; the system just started calling its version of fixtures(). The normal tests pass and the RSpec ones unanimously emit: TypeError in ''Context (verbose

Railsters: Despite Rails being the only Web platform designed for TDD, a lot of its test infrastructure is still "cargo cult" - imitating other test rigs instead of understanding their principles. Most importantly, tests should run instantly. There''s no excuse for breaking this rule, and if you invent a platform that can''t obey it then you are doing something

RSpeckers: I went with RSpec instead of Systir because I downloaded and installed the former first. (I know that''s not exactly a ringing endorsement! ;-) I want to compete with FIT and Fitnesse, like this: http://www.zeroplayer.com/cgi-bin/wiki?TestFlea#tropism (Click on a Green Bar to distend one test case.) I want a domain-specific language in the parchment-colored area on the

Dear all, I am new to rails and I am considering it for a project. What I would like to know (and I couldn''t straightforwardly find an answer to) is: - is it possible to develop commercial web applications in which you can pack a whole web app and send it to a client without disclosing the source? - is there any library of existing components already implemented? - which solutions are

I am using a plugin that adds a method to ActiveRecord::Base. The added method is called self.create_or_update. I need to monkey patch this method. I tried in lib/ config/initializers and in environment.rb, but the one in the plugin is always the one that is run. Where do I put my version of the method so that it overrides that of the plugin? I only use this method when running a rake task, so
