similar to: "rake spec:doc" returns NO NAME (due to --dry-run) for each specify block

I recently post on my blog about setting up a Rails environment with RSpec in Windows, and someone left a comment saying that it doesn''t work in EdgeRails. I so I played around with it a bit and was able to confirm that none RSpec appears broken on EdgeRails. I''ll post the various error messages I received below. I''m not expecting any sort of patch or something for this

I''m doing some housekeeping and just realised that the rdoc formatter produces gibberish: http://rspec.rubyforge.org/rdoc/files/EXAMPLES_rd.html Will anyone protest if I just go ahead and remove it? (I can''t imagine anyone using it, especially with the much better HTML formatter) Aslak

rake spec seems to work fine, but I keep getting a usage error at the end of the spec run: /usr/local/bin/ruby -I"/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rspec-0.6.4/ lib" "/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rspec-0.6.4/bin/spec" Usage: spec [options] (FILE|DIRECTORY|GLOB)+ --diff Show unified diff of Strings that are expected to be equal when

hi, When running rails spec tests is there a log file generated? i''m looking for generated sql to help me debug like in development.log or is there a way to run the test against a webrick server so i can see logs? (i''m not running with spec_server at the moment, it doesnt seem to work well with autotest) thanks linoj

Hey all, I have a spec that is hanging when it is running. How do I get the rspec runner to show what specs it''s running so I can which one is hanging? I am calling the runner from my rails project. Thanks, Ben

Hi: I am a rspec beginner. I have scratched my head for the whole afternoon, trying to figure out a way of writing render expectation in controller spec. However, I failed. It kept telling me that the ''expect_render'' was an undefined method. I have installed rspec 1.0.8 and rspec_on_rails as well. Below is the controller to be tested. Controller def index pre

This is pretty much the same as last time around, if you recall. Thanks to Wilson for converting to the new form. I''ve added a few lines. Basically, it iterates over your model associations and does two things. - First, just try to call the association. Usually fixes speeling erors or other such silliness. - Second, try to find a record with an :include on the association. This

I''m just getting started with rspec, I''m running on edge for both. In a fresh project, I freeze edge, install the edge rspec plugin. I generate a simple rspec_model and run the spec. It passes. When I run rake spec:doc, I get the following output: - NO NAME (Because of --dry-run) where the specification should be. In fact if I just make a pending spec, it does the same.

Hi! I wonder does anybody planning to go beyond the default html formatter/report? The current html report is nice and green but what about to go a little silly and enable also user input. For example to let customer to add a new pending spec, comments etc. I feel it might be mentally easier for some customers to jump into spec world when it is possible to give input at "the same

Hi, Thanks for all the effort that has gone into making RSpec available. I''m not a professional developer and I''ve found the approach articulated has helped me a lot in writing my code, and understanding that of others. To cut my teeth, I''m trying to write an db adapter for the og project. I''ve being iterating with RSpec and it''s exposed some

Questions concerning spec.opts: 1. Am I correct in believing that each option should go on a separate line of spec.opts in the rails spec directory? If this is so, why is it so? 2. Using a formatter in spec.opts doesn''t seem to work. Here is my spec.opts file: --colour -f s and this is what happens when I run the rake task: Couldn''t find formatter class s Make

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

Hi! I was just wondering how you typically generate a spec HTML report in a Rails app. Currently I''m doing something like this: spec spec -f h:spec/spec_report.html But that seems sort of clumsy and I would have thought that there was a rake task for it. Have I overlooked something? Thanks! Peter ---------------------------- Peter Marklund Garvar Lundins Gr?nd 7 11220 Stockholm

I can understand that it''s easier for rspec to set up a mock in advance of the controller call. But it makes it difficult to do something like: context "The HarkController, given Louie the logged-in user" do setup do post :login, :username => ''louie'', :password => ''atest'' end specify "should redirect Louie to the home

hi I''m using restful_authentication and have controller specs working using users fixtures (and login_as) however i''ve been trying for hours without success to do it without fixtures, using mocks and stubs instead. anyone here done this? got code? :) thanks

Hey list, I''m trying to use the rcov integration that rspec provides in my Rails application. As per the documentation on the website, I''ve created the following rake task: lib/tasks/specs_with_rcov.rake: require ''spec/rake/spectask'' desc "Run all specs with rcov" Spec::Rake::SpecTask.new(''specs_with_rcov'') do |t| t.rcov = true

I have installed ruby1.8.5-22 under windows, and then rails 1.2.3 and also i update rubygems to 0.9.3 with gems update --system however,when i enter the project directory and input the command rake db:migrate,it sucks with the following errors: rake aborted! uninitialized constant ActionController c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rake-0.7.3/lib/rake.rb:2028:in `const_missing''

I saw in one of Dave C.''s comments to a ticket that "our current plan is to deprecate the mocking framework." I hadn''t heard anything about that, but then again I haven''t paid super close attention to the list. Are we planning on dumping the mock framework in favor of using Mocha (or any other framework one might want to plug in?). Pat

I love the way I can throw a call to pending() in the top of an unfinished RSpec example and stop it from failing the build. Is there a similar way to do such a thing with good ole'' cucumber? cheers, Matt ---- http://blog.mattwynne.net http://songkick.com In case you wondered: The opinions expressed in this email are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of any former,
