similar to: Testing Models without fixtures

I thought I could delete a busy worker by calling MiddleMan.delete_worker, but doesn''t seem to end. I believe this was possible in 0.2, is it not in 1.0? thanks, Zach -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi, I would like to use backgroundrb inside a story, been trying to set this up for a while, but I think the only solution is to use fixture files and unit testing. The problem is that every time I call a new worker, the test database gets wiped out, and only has available the records in fixture files. Instead, it would be great if the test database maintains its state throughout the

Hi, Got everything setup nicely with backgroundrb for the development environment and running tests with rspec. However, I have to keep editing the backgroundrb.yml file, to switch between development and testing environment. How can I declare a development, testing and production environment in backgroundrb.yml? Thanks in advance Rai

Hi all, Are there any plans for better documentation for the new StoryRunner feature? I tried to use it today (with Rails), and had a hard time getting my head around whether I was doing it "right" and exactly what things are appropriate to test at that level (this might be exacerbated by the fact that I''ve never really used integration testing that much). A full example of

Hey guys, I''d never used RSpec Stories before, so I decided to follow the apparent direction of the wind and just jump right into cucumber. I''m dabbling with/using Cucumber and really like it. Good job, aslak! Where i''m struggling right now is using either fixtures or a model factory methodology like the FixtureReplacement. In both cases, I''m not

This is sort of a pre-announcement for a Rails plugin my friend Adam Williams and I are working on. We''re in the process of extracting it from a project we are working on so that it can be generally useful to the Rails community. We are calling it "Scenarios". It is a drop in replacement for Rails fixtures: http://faithfulcode.rubyforge.org/svn/plugins/trunk/scenarios/README

Hi, I was wondering how it was possible to access the actual cluster exemplars from the APResult class. Currently it only spits it out onto the terminal if you type the object but there is no other way to see which one is the examplar. Would appreciate any help.

Hi all, I''m trying to run a Story Runner integration test that uploads a file through Attachment-fu. I''ve tried various ways of specifying the file data, from custom mocks: class MockFile < Struct.new (:original_filename, :read, :content_type); end fdata = MockFile.new "test_upload.txt", "Test Upload", "text/plain" to

I am using the shovel deploy.rb from http://nubyonrails.com/pages/shovel I have SwitchTower-ized my app, copied the shovel deploy.rb file and put my settings in it. But when I run "rake remote_exec ACTION=setup_lighty" from the local app root it has no effect. It should prompt for a password for at least throw an error? I just get returned to the DOS prompt. If I do "rake

Hi, I'm surprised by the result of compiling the following lines of code: for (int i = 0; i < RANDOM_CHUNKS; i++) { for (int j = 0; j < RANDOM_CHUNK_SIZE; j++) { random_text[i][j] = (int)(ran()*256); } } The problem happens when -fsanitize=undefined, -fno-sanitize-recover and -O3 are enabled. In this case, UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer inserts check for array index out of

Is anyone out there writing specs to check attr_accessible fields? I had originally written my spec to check for allowing the desired fields, and then none of the other regular db fields. Unfortunately this isn''t satisfactory, because attr_protected could have been used instead, which of course wouldn''t prevent mass assignment to any whatever=(val) method. I''m thinking

I am trying to take the input from a field in wich the user enters a date, and formatting it to my time format if params[:gotcha] != '''' gotc = params[:date].to_a gotc.strftime("%m/%d/%y") end Yet I get this error: NoMethodError in AddController#add undefined method `strftime? for ["00000"] What''s wrong. I''m positive this method is

Hi, I''ve just submitted a patch for ActiveRecord; http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/10463 The patch includes new fixtures because I could not find a applicable combination among the existing fixtures.

Hi, I often find myself using bits of code like this inside ActiveRecord, perhaps it''s useful for others, or others can improve on it: ########### # fix user input before validating it before_validation :sanitize_input # santize input before actual validation is called # this uses the little methods defined below def sanitize_input trim %w(adres postcode woonplaats email naam

I have some code that calls a partial to display one or more blocks within a div tag. I want to have a close button (or cancel link) that will fade that block but leave the others. Here is the code: LINK: <%= link_to_remote "Add Miscellaneous Link", :url => { :action => :add_iyc_link } %> add_iyc_link.rjs: page.insert_html :bottom, ''links'', :partial

I''m having a strange thing when using the Enumerable extensions for Rails: Have a look at the following code: class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :invoice_lines def total invoice_lines.sum(&:total) end end class InvoiceLine < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :invoice def total amount * price end end Now, when calling invoice.total, I get wrong

It seems that at some point in the not-so-distant-past that the loop vectorizer gained the ability to vectorize loops without explicit `llvm.loop` & `llvm.mem.parallel_loop_access` metadata. While that's awesome, there seems to be a regression in that `llvm.mem.parallel_loop_access` metadata doesn't make it into the alias analysis, and therefore a `vector.memcheck` basic block is
