similar to: Story Runner: DRYing items used in many stories

Maybe I''m slow, but I just noticed that the following code.. When ''I login'' When ''I do something else'' ...will output as... When ''I login'' And ''I do something else'' The same is true for two ''Then'' steps That is really cool! Reusable steps and coherent English output. - Andy -- View this

I''m finding that I''m writing sets of very similar scenarios to check access permissions for each of my actions. Does anyone have suggestions on how to dry this up: Given an existing Account And a logged in Admin When the user visits account/manage Then he should get access Given an existing Account And a logged in Manager When the user visits account/manage Then he should get

Maybe I''m slow, but I just noticed that the following code.. Then ''I login'' Then ''I do something else'' ...will output as... Then ''I login'' And ''I do something else'' The same is true for two ''When'' steps This may have implications for writing reusable steps. I''m finding that

Fistly, many, many thanks for RSpec and Story Runner. Minor request to improve readability of output Given a scenario item with multiple params.. Eg. And "the user belongs to", "Joe", "Acme" do |user_name, company_name| The readability of the following output is less than ideal.. "And the user belongs to company,Joe Public, No Videos" It would be

Hello everyone! I have generic views for CRUD operations For example I render(''shared/list'') from controller shared/list.rhtml ... <% for item in @list %> <tr class="<%= cycle ''list-line-odd'', ''list-line-even'' %>"> <%= render :partial => ''item'', :locals => { :item => item } %>

I''ve written a story and I run into a snag. I''ve written the create_forum method and told it to set the id to 1 but when it creates the forum the id is autoincremented. My forums table is empty but the id keeps incrementing the newest record on creation. When I run the story it comes out as something like 59 which fails my story because I''m asking it to look at /forums/1

Hi, Thought this might be of interest story writers. The mechanize plugin seems to play nice with RSpec. The following mix of methods seems to work just fine. I especially like the helpers for populating forms. agent = WWW::Mechanize.new page = agent.get ''http://www.gmail.com'' page.should have_tag(''form'', :count => 1) form = page.forms.first form.email =

Hi, I am pulling my hair out trying to work out how to put together what should be a simple app in rails. The app is to CV''s so I have a table of CV''s and each CV can have multiple skills. Skills are in a 2nd table below; CREATE TABLE cvs( id INT not null AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, first_name VARCHAR(30) not null, family_name VARCHAR(30) not null, email

Hey all, What is the easiest way to include rpec''s mocking framework into a story so I can use it? I want to use it to stub out a Net::HTTP method so I''m not making API calls every time I run my story. :) Thanks, Ben

How do you guys test transactional updates with story runner? I have an action that needs to update four different models: Enrollment.transaction do @contact.update_addresses(params[:contact_address], params [:billing_address]) @enrollment.update_attributes!(params[:enrollment]) end The last update_attributes! will raise ActiveRecord::RecordNotValid if anything was

hi, is there a way to assert a flash message directly in story runner? Or do I have to go through the response text instead. Then "flash message should say success" do #flash[:notice].should == "User successfully invited" response.should have_text(/User successfully invited/) end linoj

So, having gotten a story (i.e. Story Runner) working (runs in NetBeans and using ''ruby path/to/story.rb''), I''m looking to see how I''d integrate that with our build. Am I right in assuming that there''s no Rake integration yet, or a report? I couldn''t see any. As far as I can see, "rake spec" doesn''t run or report on my

Hi all, The following only affects people who have bravely begun to experiment with the 2 day-old plain text story runner and definable groups of steps. For those who fit that bill, I just committed a few changes that will require you to make changes to your code. The StepMatchers class is now the StepGroup class. The step_matchers methods on PlainTextStoryRunner and StepGroup is now just

Hi All, I''m trying to incorporate our stories into our build for our cruisecrontrol.rb projects and it looks like the Story Runner always returns a 0 (zero) no matter if the tests pass or fail. This is in contrast to the actual and expected behavior of the spec command which will return a 0 or a 1 depending on whether specs pass or fail. Am I doing something wrong with the story runner

Hey guys, A friend and I have been working on a textmate bundle for the story runner while up here at railsconf. It is still pretty new but we think it already has some very helpful features that removes some of the pain points while writing plain text stories. It is on my github account if you want to learn more and try it out: http://github.com/bmabey/rspec-story-tmbundle/tree/master We are

I have a problem declaring a relationship through a join_table ; the SQL generated by ActiveRecord is correct, but there are two columns called ''id'', and the final object gets the ''wrong'' column ... Here''s a more detailed description of the data, code, and problem :- There''s a People table, with id, name, and a few things. Also a

Getting a strange error. In a story I have the following step: When "I submit a search name" do xhr :post, ''/searches'', {:search => {:given_name => "bob", :family_name => "smith"}} end I am getting: ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (4 for 3) stories/searching_story_spec.rb:45 in "I submit a search name" But I only

I''ve gotten quite a bit out of Pat Maddox''s screencast http://evang.eli.st/blog/2007/10/8/story-runner-top-to-bottom-screencast One thing I''m not sure of is the feature where he writes things like: When "I POST to", "/articles", :post => {:title => "Title", :body => "Body") do | path, params| post_via_redirect

Has anyone noticed any problems with the Rails story runner returning a response code of "0" when doing get/post/etc methods? I just grabbed the latest rails/rspec and just started noticing this problem, http://pastie.caboo.se/117497 Regular controller specs pass as expected. -- Josh Knowles phone: 509-979-1593 email: joshknowles at gmail.com web: http://joshknowles.com

I''m trying to write a story for a Rails app which involves using the attachment_fu plugin to upload images. After blunting my pick on this for a while, google found me this: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/134743#600831 So it seems that there''s a hole in Rails integration testing and multipart form posting. David offered to incorporate a patch to story runner at the end of the
