I have some specs that ''require'' other files. When running spec_server, if these required files are changed, it''s not picked up when the specs are run. I have to restart spec_server to get the changes recognized. Is there an option or some such to have spec_server reload required files as well when a spec is run? Thanks, Steve

I just installed on my up to date FreeBSD 5.4 box. I'm a little confused as to whether or not there are things I need to configure or not. I went to go through the docs, and it was talking about using a file named "config" as a template, and modifying from there. Well that file didn't exist anywhere on my machine, or in the source I downloaded. In fact, looking in the Wine CVS

Is the rspec_autotest plugin mentioned here, http://blog.nicksieger.com/articles/2006/11/15/rspec-autotest-now-a-rails-plugin the accepted method of auto testing specs? It''s an old article, and after grabbing the plugin, and giving it a run, it fails with: $ rake spec:autotest:rails trunk/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/dsl/behaviour/rails_example.rb:31: undefined method

hello I am returning to some libraries that I had previously customised by amongst other things adding additional functions. I had simply typed these new functions into the file in library/R/thelibrary. These however do not seem to be loaded now as they previously were under older versions of R. What's changed and what do i need to do? Thanks Stephen

I had posted this on the regular Rails list, but upon trying this in script/console, it seems like the behavior only exists when running rspec. I''m getting some weird behavior in one of my models. I have a model defined something like this class User < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessor :password validates_presence_of :password end If I validate the model without specifying a

Just wondering if anyone else thinks that ''response.should be_success'' is potentially misleading. If you''re writing a spec for an action that is failing in some way it can still have a status 200.
