I''m working on porting our app. Do I need to upgrade rspec from 1.1.3? If so which version. BTW the installation doc at http://rspec.info/documentation/rails/install.html seems to be stuck in the pre-git days. -- Rick DeNatale My blog on Ruby http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/

David offered to incorporate a patch to story runner at the end of the reference thread in ruby-talk, although just which patch confuses me, it would seem to be one from http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/4635 So what is the current status here? -- Rick DeNatale My blog on Ruby http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/

I''ve made a model called Color to manage custom styles for my application. It works find when I''m running it locally in Mongrel, and I haven''t tried to deploy it yet. I use ZenTest and Autotest, and when I run autotest I''m getting the following message: "C:/rails/band/trunk/app/models/color.rb:1: Color is not a class (TypeError)" My Color model is

...when the original scenario is run. Does this make sense? How have others dealt with this? This is probably at tension with the XP notion of stories being minimal and isolated, but RBehave/RSpec stories already seem to have that tension IMHO.

The RSpec Development Team is pleased as glug (that''s kind of like punch, but more festive) to announce RSpec-1.1.0. Thanks to all who have contributed patches over the last few months. Big thanks to Dan North and Brian Takita for their important work on this release. Dan contributed his rbehave framework which is now the Story Runner.

Hey, I just ran into a situation where I would like to expect a method call with an argument I know and another one, which is a random number. I think mocking up the rand method is somehow ugly so I thought maybe this is the first time where I can take something from Java to Ruby ;) Java''s EasyMock mocking library knows things like "anyObject()" and "anyInteger()" in

This is what I did: Video.stub!( :has_attached_file ).with( :name ).and_return( true ) has_attached_file is from paperclip, it gets mixed to the model. 1)

...ning it before is more difficult, particularly if I''m using parameterized steps. It would be nice if I could somehow use database transactions, but I don''t see a nice way to do that either.

I have multiple roles in my application. Now I want to block a method for all users except the administrator and a manager. When I do this: before_filter (:check_administrator_role), :only => [:administration] before_filter (:check_taskmanager_role), :only => [:administration] The user must have both roles.
