I''ve got a share method in my controller, and I have the following spec: describe PostsController do describe "#share" do it "doesn''t blow up" do post :share, :id => @post.id end # ... etc And... It blows up! Failures: 1) PostsController#share shares Failure/Error: post :share

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''ve got something like this: # post_observer.rb after_create # ...stuff Delayed::Job.enqueue(PostSharer.new(post, post.user)) end ... # post_sharer.rb class PostSharer < Struct.new(:post, user) def perform # Delayed::Job calls .perform on the object passed into enqueue end end # post_controller_spec.rb it "shares the post" do

hi, When I run rake spec , it seems to be starting with my default environment (development or production) and connects to that database, before actually connecting to the test one and proceeding with the tests. When I remove the development database, the specs wont run. How do i initiate rspec to be test environment from the start? I dont see this when i run using script/spec linoj

I''ve the same problem as Alastair when running rspec command : http://lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/2007-October/022585.html ../spec/mate/runner.rb:34:in `run'': undefined method `parse'' for Spec::Runner::OptionParser:Class I fixed this for me by changing the offending line to : ::Spec::Runner::CommandLine.run(argv, STDERR, stdout) (see

Hi there, I can''t upgrade rspec on rails to 0.7.5.1. I followed the install guide on the website without sucsess. Here''s my env info: $ rails -v Rails 1.2.2 $ gem -v 0.9.2 $ spec -v RSpec-0.7.5.1 (r1395) - BDD for Ruby http://rspec.rubyforge.org/ $ spec ... <snip> ############################################################################ Your RSpec on Rails plugin

I am working on my first Rails BDD project with extensive tests since starting out with Rails a few years ago. Running RSpec or Cucumber is really slow. I''m using Rails 3 and RSpec 2. To run one model spec with only 5 tests takes almost 1 minute! When it finishes it says it took only 0.9 seconds to run the actual test. So obviously it is loading the environment that takes so long. I just

Hey all, I''m new to BDD and rspec, but I am very intrigued. I tried installing rspec and rspec_on_rails into my Rails app, but I am having some trouble. I chose to install both as plugins, as the documentation suggests. I checked out the CURRENT tag from svn, and copied the rspec and rspec_on_rails directories into my app''s vendor/plugins directory. Then I ran

I''ve decided that I want to use more automated tests because I''ve been intrigued by the idea of BDD. I am new to using tests, so I''m curious if there have been any writeup on using rSpec. This is one of the only ones I''ve found: http://blog.teksol.info/articles/2005/11/17/building-a-plugin-on-rspec It seems that the benefit of BDD is that it makes it

Hi all, I am a bit confused when i type rake spec and it gives me this message, No examples matching ./spec/**/*_spec.rb could be found what is that mean that something is not found. and where i can input my the test code because i did have a tiny sample code in user_controller_test.rb. is that the right place to test functional.. plz give me a help thanks -- You received this message

I can''t figure out how to build rspec-rails as a gem when just cloned from github... there isn''t any .gemspec file or rake task that does this. Any help? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I''m just starting on BDD. I installed the gems for webrats and cucumber. I also ran the following in the Ruby shell: >rake gems:install RAILS_EN=test >script/generate cucumber These commands seemed to create the expected features and lib folders in my project. I''m using the eclipse framework with Aptana and RadRails as my IDE. However, when I run: >cucumber features

It seems to me that the RSpec bundle''s ''it'' snippet is in need of some love. By default, a newly inserted spec passes. This seems odd as it is misleading. It also makes it harder find what specs still need to be completed if you return to an RSpec module after a break. I propose that the ''it'' snippet is changed to the following: it

Hopefully in a matter of days. The next release will be 1.1.0. We''re going to a release model in which 1.odd.x will be considered experimental. This means that while we will document

One of the things that turned me on to BDD and RSpec was speccing views first, that the desired end would drive the development. In previous projects while using Test::Unit I would try to make educated guesses as to what would be needed in the model and controllers to derive the view without actually writing the view until afterwards. This is all because testing relied on each previous

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.

Hi, Q1 - Know why rake doesn''t recognize "rake examples_with_rcov" per http://rspec.info/documentation/tools/rcov.html ? Q2 - Also when I run "rake spec:rcov" it seems to give me the same as if I just run "autotest" or "rake spec". I was expecting a heap of pointers to code I haven''t tested?

Suppose we have a method ''foo'' which internally uses another method ''bar''. Being good BDDers we mock out the ''bar'' method. After all, we only want to spec the ''foo'' method - actually running the ''bar'' method means slower, less maintainable and brittler specs. That''s why we <3 mocking,

The "rspec" rake task collects all _spec files in the spec directory, and excludes the "watir" directory. Is this indicating a preference for using Watir over Selenium? I would like it better to standardize on something more neutral, ''ui'' perhaps? /Marcus -- Marcus Ahnve http://marcus.ahnve.net

Just wanted to pick some smart people about this topic: What are you guys doing to increase the speed of your specs? I''m a big fan of autotest, but right now my current project has 438 specs (for rails). Most of them are in the model, and for all of them we are hitting the database (they are more functional specs than unit-tests). The whole suite takes 112 seconds (meaning the
