Bleeding-edge story-writers, How are you structuring your specs? I am working on a new project and tried this: ./lib ./blah ./spec ./blah ./stories But it breaks autotest, so I moved stories parallel to lib and spec. Also what about suffixes? I have adopted "xyz_story_spec.rb", and "xyz.story" for the time being, with the line runner =

Hey list, I''m refactoring some much-used functionality into a common_steps step group. Methods like this are in there: steps_for :common do Given "a number of existing $types?" do |type| @initial_item_count = type.singularize.classify.constantize.count end When "the user adds an invalid $type" do |type| post

Hi, I have a need for the StepGroup feature in stories but not clear what''s the current api. Could you provide an example? In my case I have several scenarios which vary in the Givens, but not the results. Ideally I''m hoping to achieve something like: (but anything will do for now :) Scenario: one Given something When he does foo Then good things should happen

Hi Something that''s gnawing at me... to avoid using the SQLite3 gem I''m stubbing it out like this: before(:each) do @database = mock("SQLite3 database") SQLite3 = Module.new SQLite3::Database = Class.new SQLite3::Database.stub!(:new).and_return(@database) end But then it keeps nagging me:

Hi In light of the fact that RSpec mocks are going into maintenance mode in the near future, I was wondering what everyone was switching to. I liked the look of FlexMock most, so gave that a shot. However, there''s a few things that don''t work well with RSpec due to the traditional differences in the way Test::Unit cases are written vs RSpec specs. (One spec per

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

Hi I can''t get heckle working. In fact, I''ve built an example so simple that it either shows a bug, or I am being really, REALLY stupid. Heckle does not appear to support RSpec directly, so I''m trying to use spec --heckle (RSpec trunk as of 10 mins ago, Heckle 1.4.1). I''ve constructed this pair of sample files: 18> ~/Desktop/heckle_test % cat

Hi I''m loading a gem on demand but can''t find a way to spec it. Assuming rubygems is already loaded, I assumed the following would work: describe SqliteConnection, " class" do it "should require ''sqlite3''" do Kernel.should_receive(:require).with("sqlite3") SqliteConnection.new end end Unfortunately

Hi I hope this is not OT. I''m training my replacement at work to do BDD Rails development. He''s done a CS/maths degree but has no professional programming experience, so he''s never NOT done a project without BDD. In a way I am jealous of his unspoilt situation :) I''ve gone about things this way: * first teach him some Ruby (he did mainly Java at

Hey, I have a copy of Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 premium, and I am running a computer with Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit.

Hi Recently I sent a modified version of the GetBundle bundle to textmate-dev. It was failing because the RSpec bundle was from another repo (ie RubyForge). One of the replies said that the RSpec bundle was now in the MacroMates repo, which it is. Is that an officially handled thing? If so, what version of the RSpec bundle is being maintained there - CURRENT? It''s

Hey, before I was running Wine and I couldn't open up a .exe file that downloads a game (Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 Triple Thrill) that I have bought online. Is there an easy workaround for this? Please, please reply asap, as I am planning on putting Wine on this new computer to run Windows files. Thanks! :)

Hi I ran across the following when running spec on an old merb app. $ cat spec/spec.opts $ spec spec/models/topic_spec.rb Options written to spec/spec.opts. You can now use these options with: spec --options spec/spec.opts $ cat spec/spec.opts spec/models/topic_spec.rb $ spec spec/models/topic_spec.rb Options written to spec/spec.opts. You can now use these options with: spec --options

Hello, I've just installed Rollercoaster Tycoon 3 Deluxe (I think it's called 'Platinum' in the US, the version with both addons) on my Kubuntu 8.04 partition with Wine 0.9.59. The installation works fine, but when I try to start the game, the following error message appears: "Please insert the original disc instead of a backup. See www.securom.com/copy for more

Hello, if I will install Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, first I see the Message "Internal Failure - Error Number 0x80040707" (I don't know for it is from RCT3 or from wine), but I'm able to proceed with click on ok. But if I'm in the page to set the path and see the discspace and click on next, I ever get this page. But I don't see any error-message and it is enough discspace.

So in the past I''ve written a script that query''s a remote DB, takes the data, validates it, then does some processing, producing a new file with the data in a completely different format. Since this is a script with it''s own set of methods, etc, how do I go about testing the pieces parts? It seems like it should be no different than doing the rails testing I have
