Hello, I''m running AutoTest with Rspec on a Rails application. Every 20 or so runs I get "stack level too deep" on one particular controller stub. Ex. controller.stub!(:login).and_return(true) This particular line is in a before block of a certain describe block. The strange thing is, every single spec in this file fails on that one line, even the specs in other describe

.... As I am focused on the logic of the method in the controller I am testing I just wish to stub the value returned in the super. Is this at all possible?

Hi I hope this is not OT. I''m training my replacement at work to do BDD Rails development. He''s done a CS/maths degree but has no professional programming experience, so he''s never NOT done a project without BDD.

As I work with Rails TestUnit tests I am reconsidering how to use cucumber features. It seems to me that it might be best to have a coherent view of how to arrange my test suites before I get much further into this. Now, so far I have considered three possibilities: 1.
