similar to: Why use DatabaseCleaner with rSpec?

Hi in the config block of rspec I have a before block to reset my database before each spec: config.before(:each) {DatabaseCleaner.clean} I know I can apply this before to a specific type, e.g. config.before(:each, :type => :model) {DatabaseCleaner.clean} but what I want to achieve is that the database is cleaned for all specs except acceptance specs. Is there a way to define this, e.g.

Hi, there, I have some methods which I have written as helpers. They are in spec/support/controller_macros.rb (yes, I will change the name soon). The 2 methods, login_user and login_admin_user works in the controller specs BUT fail to work in the view specs when I call them in the view specs. ---------- spec/spec_helper.rb start -------------------------- # This file is copied to spec/

Hi, I was writing an integration test for my user signup form (with capybara), and found that my test was failing due to a validation error: "email is already taken". I''m a bit confused because I thought when I run "rspec spec/some_spec.rb", the test database would be wiped clear? Is that not the case? Patrick J. Collins http://collinatorstudios.com

I have SLOW file transfers across samba to my Windows Server 2000 domain. I am using a built in 100bT Intel Pro NIC, I have tried the built in gigabit NIC and a PCI 3com, all with the same results. Using iperf, I get about 45-90Mb of bandwidth from my PC's to my samba server. I can pull it up by \\servername <file:///\\servername> or \\ipaddress <file:///\\ipaddress> with out

Hello list, I wonder if someone could help me understand the following: I''ve got a managed dedicated server with GoDaddy. Until now, I''ve only hosted PHP applications there. I now need to set it up to host my new beloved Rails application. I asked them to set up apache with mod_proxy_balancer for the mongrel cluster, however, here''s what they told me: *Unfortunately,

I asked this questions on some other places before, but have found no solution yet. I''d like to include the request helper (from ActionDispatch::Integration::RequestHelpers, like post and xhr methods) also in some specs outside of my controller specs. The problem is that these request helpers are only included in spec/ controller and when a controller is described. What do I have to

Dear list, I wish to define a set of functions *auxilliary* to another set of "main" ones, and I wonder if there is some "clever" way do do this using lexical scoping. Looking for that in the list's archives did not get me easily understood answers. Perusing MASS (1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th editions!) and "Programming S" wasn't of much help either... R easily

I am running Rails 1.1.2 with Ruby 1.82-15. My database is Postgresql. I haven''t had any problems generating models, migrations, using scaffolds, and generally building and using my application, but I haven''t been able to get testing to work. I initially just ignored the problem and kept developing, but would like to add proper testing from here on out. Currently when I type

One of my controllers directly renders some JSON output that I would like to test with RSpec. For that I use ''response.should have_text("foobar")'' in my spec file, but that leads to a Failure/Error: response.should have_text("enim") undefined method `has_text?'' for #<ActionController::TestResponse: 0xb6736944> I read here somewhere that webrat

The second release of TentSteak is out and available as a gem on rubyforge ("gem install tent_steak"). This version introduces a handful of new form helpers, a couple method renames, editable HTML tables, and some application bootstrappers for kickstarting Camping and initializing ActiveRecord. It''s still in active development, and I''d very much appreciate

Hi, we are looking for either one post-doctoral researcher or PhD student to work with us on the CELERITY project. The main goal is the design of a programming environment to develop energy- and performance- efficient, predictably scalable, and easy-to-program parallel applications targeting large-scale heterogeneous HPC clusters. The CELERITY environment will integrate a compilation part

Hi, I am working on a project where I need to generate a chart (a bit like a pie chart, but very customised) and insert this into a PDF document. Does anybody have any advice on ruby libraries (or other techniques) for doing this? Open to suggestions? The resulting PDF will be designed for printing and so ideally should be vector throughout (or any raster images 300dpi). I was thinking of some

I prefer to use rspec than test::unit for developing my apps. However I''ve found its mocking library to be pretty inflexible compared to Mocha. This isn''t really a surprise since rspec isn''t intended as a mocking framework, whereas Mocha is. So I''d like to play to both of their strengths and use rspec as my testing/specification framework and Mocha do to

Hey all, I just pushed out the inaugural release of TentSteak 0.1.0, a set of Camping/Markaby helpers to minimize the busywork in your views (or was that the "viewwork in your busies"?). It includes lotsa HTML form and table helpers, plus a little bootstrapper to make it easy to load in shared helper modules of your own. Please check it out and let me know what you think.

Hello list, So, the application I am working on right now needs to have LDAP authentication build in, meaning that if the user enabled it, we will query about his basic data (email,pwd) on a user-setup LDAP directory. It used to work fine when I was testing with OpenLDAP. The code, essentially, is this: connection.bind(self.bind_dn,self.password)

This is related to Selenium/Watir usage along side webrat in story testing. MHS_Testing and Rspec-ui provide some great help for testing through frameworks like Selenium/Watir. But there is something missing, Webrat has changed the landscape somewhat with Acceptance Tests/Story Driven development. Now I have a choice: 1. Tests and rails process run as one test process (Webrat) 2. Use
