similar to: rspec_on_rails - necessary to force "test" env?

Looks like you can run rspec w/out hitting the database by doing the following: 1. Setting up a new rake task which does not have db:test:prepare as a dependency: namespace :spec do desc "Run the specs under spec/models without a database" Spec::Rake::SpecTask.new(:models_no_db) do |t| t.spec_opts = [''--options'',

In my rspec_on_rails controlle rspec, I have this: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../spec_helper'' describe FooController, "with a foo" do it "should be false" do get ''index'' assigns[:foo].should be_false end end In my controller I have this: class FooController < ApplicationController def index @foo = FALSE end

I figured most of it out. The Spec::Rails stuff was something in the code which has been fixed by revision 3099. The test methods partially make sense. Since the test/unit code has been integrated, methods with test in them are automatically turned into specs. However, the test? method is in a lib file that isn''t directly loaded into the specs. It is a convenience method: def

Hi all, I''m just getting started with rspec. I''m using trunk rspec with edge rails. I get an error on migration though, here it is: rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV="test" --trace (in /home/pat/railsapp) ** Invoke db:migrate (first_time) ** Invoke environment (first_time) ** Execute environment rake aborted! undefined method `failure_message'' for class

I now have two specs in my rails project which correspond to one rails controller. I can run them individually and they pass, but running them together (either with the rake task just putting both files on the command line): euclid% spec spec/controllers/crud_resource_controller_spec.rb spec/ controllers/crud_resource_controller_with_join_models_spec.rb

I just downloaded rspec_on_rails-1.1.3.tgz onto a mac on OSX 10.4 and another computer (Ubuntu 7.10) and I get the same tar errors when I try to decompress: rspec_on_rails-1.1.3/spec_resources/views/view_spec/implicit_helper.rhtml rspec_on_rails-1.1.3/spec_resources/views/view_spec/multiple_helpers.rhtml gzip: stdin: decompression OK, trailing garbage ignored

Hey, I''m using rspec and rspec_on_rails to test some RSS feed views, the problem is that the specs spew out messy warnings when they run: ignoring attempt to close channel with link opened at byte 61, line 3 closed at byte 141, line 5 attributes at open: {} text around open: "ss version=\"2.0\">\n <channel>\n <title" text around close:

I ran into something really puzzling today. I don''t know exactly why it''s happening, but I thought I''d share my experiences. I started a dummy app just to test an idea outside of the context of my real work today. So, I quickly get things started: * rails junk * cd junk * ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/ CURRENT/rspec * ruby

hi all I''m still a little uncertain on how to use mocks/stubs with rspec when dealing with associations. I know the point is to isolate the code being tested and remove external dependencies, but I''m not sure how to implement it. Can someone suggest how they would spec the code below: I have a Book model and Review model class Book < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :reviews

After a couple of quick fixes this morning, rspec_on_rails (in trunk as of rev 3070) now works correctly with Rails 2.0.1 Now that Rails 2.0 is out, we''ll try to get an RSpec 1.1 release candidate out the door in the next few days. Cheers, David

Hi! I''m still struggling with RSpec to get it working with a Rails application, that does not use a database. I removed all the db:* dependencies from the RSpec targets, but it still wants to connect to a database. Any ideas? bye, Tobias ** Execute spec:models /usr/bin/ruby1.8 -I"/var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/rspec-0.7.5/lib"

Hi, I wrote a class which is not an AR extension, nor a controller. I''d like to use logger.* methods there too. My class is in lib/ dir. I include it in environment.rb with the line require ''lib/localization'' just after the line require File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), ''boot'') I tried many ways to reuse the logger class. The cleaner way seemed to

Hello rspec-users, I''ve encountered a strange bug in rspec, but it may be me who is wrong. I''m running latest version from the trunk (r1678) of both rspec and rspec_on_rails. Please consider the following model: class Url < ActiveRecord::Base def after_save Contact.create!(:primary_email => ''user at example.com'') raise

All, Just read in the Capistrano manual about the Capistrano "migrate" task. There it says that: "By default, all this task does is change to the directory of your current release (as indicated by the current symlink), and run rake RAILS_ENV=production migrate. You can specify that it should run against the latest release (regardless of what the current release is) by setting
