similar to: new screencast on rspec

Does anyone know of any RSpec screencasts for dummies, like me :) I have a Java background, but I have never written a java test in my life. I''ve never learned about TDD or BDD so I''m totally blank on everything that has anything to do with testing and stuff. Where should I start?!? ;) Christian... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this

Hello all, I''m new to rSpec but after reading a couple of tutorials I''ve become enamored. Anyway, I am at minute 42 of the rSpec basics screencast ( peepcode.com) and I''m having the following error running autotest w/rSpec: D:\ruby\projects\forecaster>autotest loading autotest/rails_rspec c:\ruby\bin\ruby -rrubygems -e "require ''redgreen''"

I posted a quick screencast demonstrating some BDD with RSpec yesterday: http://wincent.com/a/about/wincent/weblog/archives/2007/05/ behaviourdriven.php I''m a C/Objective-C programmer who knows a bit of Ruby, almost nothing about Rails, and in BDD I can really only claim "new but interested" status. It''s not scripted, it''s totally improvised and

When trying to configure a rspec 1.1.2 based app in CC.rb, I came across the following: /home/bryan/cruisecontrolrb-1.2.1/projects/support-engines/work/vendor/ plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/../../../../rspec/lib/spec/ runner/options.rb:218:in `files_to_load'': File or directory not found: cc:build (RuntimeError) from

Hi, I starting a new project, and have run into behavior I cannot replicate in irb, (i.e. outside of using rspec) when the directory? returns true, so I thought I''d ask here, in case any one has seen this badhavior. ruby-1.9.2-p136 rspec (2.5.0) rspec-core (2.5.1) rspec-expectations (2.5.0) rspec-mocks (2.5.0) When I try to run this spec: require Pathname(__FILE__).ascend { |d|

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

The RSpec Development Team is pleased to announce the release of RSpec-1.0.8. RSpec 1.0.6 is the "holy cow, batman, it''s been a long time since we released and there are a ton of bug fixes, patches and even new features" release. RSpec 1.0.7 and 1.0.8 deal with a regression introduced in 1.0.6 and a hiccup in releasing 1.0.7, respectively. == RSpec RSpec is a Behaviour Driven

Hello, I''m scheduled to give a rspec brown bag this Wednesday (11/22) for my company (Pivotal Computer Systems, http://www.pivotalsf.com). I did see Dave Astel''s talk as well as several of my coworkers. The developers at my workplace are experienced Agile developers. What would be some good things to focus on for this brown bag? Are there slides to presentations that would be

Hey does anyone know of a good open source Rails project that uses RSpec? I''d like to check out some real world code that''s drinking the RSpec BDD koolaid.

Hello everybody, I''ve been using RSpec as a tool to create web applications for some time now, in Rails, and using plain Ruby with WEBrick as well. The tool suits my needs and the story runner is great. Now there are things that aren''t solvable on the web, you''ll need a _real_ desktop application for those problems. So I''ve toyed a bit around with various GUI

Hi to all I''m a new in ruby and RoR programming. And my problem is Rspec. I don''t understand how to write test files in rspec. Maybe it''s because I don''t know ruby good. Can you send me links to fine examples/screencasts/e-books and other stuff. I found some on google but it not enough :( Thanks for replie''s -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi all, On MacOS, we have SnapZ Pro to RECORD screencasts. Is there a comfortable - *1 - screencast Editor, like CamTasia on Windows? At the very minimum I want to cut parts of the movies, insert "slides" and superpose drawings (frames, arrows, ..) or text? Alain *1 : not FinalCut, obviously. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is it too late to suggest some filename conventions for example rspec files--especially when bundling with gems? I see spec_foo.rb and foo_spec.rb around. Also found some foo_ex.rb around. Would having a foo.rspec be worth talking about? Or is the convention more or less to have ''spec'' in the file name? I have to confess the only real motivation I have at the moment is syntax

The first administrative console screencast is now available at: http://screencasts.visualjquery.com/demo1/ I''ve posted a bunch about the Admin Console, but it''s essentially an automated scaffold that works as an engine. The screencast is a quick overview of the minor things you''ll need to do in models, environment.rb, and others, as well as ::drumroll:: a demo of

The RSpec Development Team is extraordinarily pleased to announce the release of RSpec-1.0.0. == RSpec RSpec provides a Domain Specific Language for describing and verifying the behaviour of Ruby code with executable examples. Some people like to call these examples "tests". In fact, they are. But we believe that tests have equally important value as documentation and as a design aid,

Hi there, i have written a little Ruby Program called RemoteFeature (It?s more a Hack as of now). It lets you run Cucumber/RSpec Features that are defined in a 37Signals-Writeboard and updates the Writeboard automagically. I have made a Screencast about this. It is available at my blog: http://matthiashennemeyer.com . Or direct: http://chocolateco.de/images/remotefeaturesintro.mov Do you have some
