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

The RSpec Development Team is pleased to announce the release of RSpec 0.7.5. This release adds support for Heckle - Seattle''rb''s code mutation tool. There are also several bug fixes to the RSpec core and the RSpec on Rails plugin. Changes: http://rspec.rubyforge.org/changes.html Download: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=797 or gem install rspec Happy spec''ing,

I''m working on tool to automatically run code metrics in the same way as autotest. It''s runs rcov, flog, and saikuro right now, and works with rspec and rails. It''s hosted at rubyforge: http://rubyforge.org/projects/autometric/ I''ve got a post on how to configure it with growl: http://benburkert.com/2007/11/9/introducing-autometric I''m hoping

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

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:

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 =

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

Now that I''m developing a big suite of specs, I really want to run Heckle and see how well I''ve done. Using r1359, when I run: spec spec/models/metadata_report_spec.rb --heckle MetadataReport the result is just to run the specs once and then exit, as though I hadn''t mentioned Heckle. I started looking though rspec to figure out why, but it''s late, so I should

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

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

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

Fellow hecklers, Just spent a while getting this working. Turns out heckle will heckle a whole module and sub-modules with one call, so with a bit of string matching, you can build a nice tool to heckle your whole app and report any failures. Was going to post to the list, as the first version was about 4 lines long, but I''ve embellished it slightly (I got carried away), so

Given the following ApplicationController specs: describe ApplicationController, "one facet", :shared => true do it ''foo'' ... it ''bar'' ... end describe ApplicationController, "some other facet", :shared => true do it ''abc'' ... it ''xyz'' ... end describe

Is it possible to create a stub that returns hash values. For example I would like to convert this: @siteItem = stub(''plmSiteItem'', :one => "uno") To something like this: @siteItem = stub(''plmSiteItem'', {''one'' => ''uno'', ''two'' => ''dos''} ) So that I can do this:

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

Hey guys and gals, I have a snippet of code: Net::SMTP(@host, @port, @from_domain) do |smtp| @emails.each do |email| begin smtp.send_message email.encoded, email.from, email.destinations @emails_sent += 1 rescue Exception => e # blah end end end What I want to do is: Say there are 4 emails. First email is sent OK On the second email smtp raises a IOError

Ok, this is INCREDIBLY finicky of me, and I''m a really finicky person at the best of times, but I noticed that when you use the TM Alternate File command to create specs, it does it with a header line like this: File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../../../spec_helper'' I use a header line like this require File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), *%w [..

Hi guys, I have a weird failing spec, for which I just cannot figure out the reason of failure. I''m now rewriting my controller specs based on the advice of David and Ashley, and I got stuck on this (see: [rspec- users] specing rescue, ensure and else blocks of an Exception). http://pastie.caboo.se/111221 I''ve tried everything, like stubbing out :update_attributes! , even

I''ve noticed that I phrase a lot of shared behaviours in plural, eg describe "All payment_details views" How about a "they" alias to "it" so you can write describe "All payment_details views", :shared => true do they "should have a card number field" do # ... end end WDYT? Ashley
