similar to: Rake task for focused examples

I have some javascript specs (using the jspec javascript framework) in my rails 3 project, living in the spec/javascript directory. How can I exclude the ruby files in the jspec project from being run when I run "rake spec"? RSpec::Core::RakeTask used to take a file list (which was usually generated with a glob pattern and an explicit call to Dir.glob). Now it only takes a glob

Hi David, all: I recently upgraded to Rails 2.3.1RC2 (Ubuntu 8.10, ruby 1.8.7 (2008-08-11 patchlevel 72) [i486-linux]) and have been dilligently following the instructions for upgrading rspec and rspec-rails according to: http://wiki.github.com/dchelimsky/rspec/rails-with-rspec-gems. and when I run ''rake gem'' fails with error: rake aborted! undefined method

So I''d been running gem releases of rspec for the past several months, and I installed edge rspec so that I can use Story Runner. I''m running into a problem because I''ve got a couple rake tasks that reference "spec/rake/raketask". If I try to run "rake spec" then it pulls in the gem version instead of the plugin version. rake blows up saying that

Hello, I''m playing around with Rspec again after going from test/unit to rspec then back to test/unit... :) Right off the bat, I find myself wanting to do something like this: https://gist.github.com/1128091 Basically, I want to name a context, then call it later by name, passing a block to it. Or in other words... what is the best way to DRY this code?

Hi all, In GOOS[1] they use an assertion called assertEventually which samples the system for a success state until a certain timeout has elapsed. This allows you to synchronise the tests with asynchronous code. Do we have an equivalent of that in the Ruby / RSpec world already? I know capybara has wait_until { } but that''s fairly rudimentary - the failure message isn''t very

Hi, I''ve been coming up with some documentation examples, which I''d like to contribute as Cucumber features to go into the relishapp. I started following the contribute instructions on the rspec-dev README[1] but have a question about pull requests. Should I clone from the rspec/* projects on github, or fork them all and then setup my local development environment from my own

Hi folks How would you spec something like this: as_user username do FileUtils.chmod_R 0755, "#{directory}/*" end Where as_user fires off a new process (and set uid to username). It seems that this won''t catch FileUtils.chmod_R: FileUtils.should_receive(:chmod_R).with(0755, "#{@domain.directory}/*") I guess that is because it is passed in the block

I am using mock_model in my tests, and I encountered a situation where my stub is failing. Here''s the scenario: Controller: @locations = Location.al(:bounds=>bounds)l @locations.sort_by_distance_from([bounds.center.lat,bounds.center.lng]) Rspec: @location = mock_model(Location) Location.stub(:all).and_return([@location])

Do you often find yourself doing this: active = double(''active'') active.should_receive(:first) users = double(''users'', active: active) account.should_receive(:users).and_return(users) for this: account.users.active.first ? Of course, we could use stub_chain, but that doesn''t let us know *where* the chain broke. Would you like to do this?

Hi there I have a weird situation. I have inherited a project in Rails 1.2.3 that has been upgraded to Rails 2.3.14 (and is running). I have installed Cucumber and Rspec to start to write features/tests for the new code that needs to be written. In my Gemfile, these Gems are loaded: group :test do gem ''rspec-rails'', ''~> 1.3.4'', :require =>

Hi! I''m a newbie at Ruby. I''m trying to run rspec tests using rake. In my rake file I include spec/rake/spectask. It fails to load giving me the following message: rake aborted! no such file to load -- spec/rake/spectask C:/Ruby187/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.8.7/lib/rake.rb:2383:in `raw_load_rakefile'' I''m using version 1.8.7 of Ruby. I have installed rake

Just ran svn up this morning, and got this (after running ./script/ generate rspec) escher: ./script/spec spec/models/item_spec.rb Finished in 8.0e-06 seconds 0 examples, 0 failures ./script/spec:4:in `run'': wrong number of arguments (3 for 1) (ArgumentError) from ./script/spec:4 Using rails 1.2.3, rspec trunk, on Mac OS X.4.9. Any ideas, or is this a bug in

I''m trying to get rspec-puppet working and have run into a problem. I have a VM running ubuntu lucid, have installed rubygems 1.3.5 from the apt package and have install rspec-puppet (and other required gems), and rake, using gem install. I''ve run rspec-puppet-init in the module I want to test, and have created a very basic spec file for one of the classes in my module.

>From looking at the RSpec Rails documentation (https://www.relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-rails/docs/view-specs/view-spec) it seems like rendered is just a string and you can''t really do any assert_select type stuff out of the box. After Googling around, it seems that the RSpec authors decided that if you want that functionality, you should just use Capybara or some such... is that

I would like to turn this: describe TestClass do before :all do # set some config end after :all do # restore some config end # do a bunch of tests to this end into describe TestClass do with_config_value(X) # do a bunch of tests to this end Basically, I want to include before :all and after :all clauses into a test. However, I do not want this to apply toa ll tests. Thanks in advance.

Is there a way to always use integrate_views for all controller specs? I hate having to remember to insert that line into each one. Thanks, Joe

Hi All: I am working on a test, and I need to detect if the test failed on the after(:each) method, just to call a WebService. Thanks!

I am sorry but it seems like this should be a simple answer. when i run a any rake command i get the following error: no such file to load -- spec/rake/spectask i amusing bundler and have the latest rspec installed. any idea? make dev tough when you can not do any rake tasks...

Hi I am using Mongoid. In Mongoid while saving a record we typically give like in the controller @post.safely.save For a model class Post I am writing rspecs for my controller and want to mock the model. So what I am doing is let(:post) { mock_model(Post).as_null_object } before(:each) do Post.stub(:new).and_return(post) end it "creates new post"

Hey guys After hours of hard work I finally managed to set up my development environment to run cucumber scenarios using autotest and selenium. What''s a bit bugging is the fact that Firefox always jumps to the foreground when Autotest does its job. How can I keep Firefox in the background so that I can continue with my work without being interrupted? Thanks! -- Posted via
