Hello list, I think I have a rails related RSpec problem with a mock going out of scope on a recursive call to a model. The code is at: http://pastie.textmate.org/79821 if you want to see it highlighted. I have pasted it below as well. Basically, I have an acts_as_nested_set model called "Node", which works fine. I have a function which finds the language name of the node instance.

Hello Rspecers, I have a rails project where I am calling Resolv::DNS.open and then using the block to check a domain name. The code snippet in question is: domain = "mytest.com" Resolv::DNS.open do |dns| @mx = dns.getresources(domain, Resolv::DNS::Resource::IN::MX) end I obviously want to stub this out, especially for speed but can''t quite work out how. I

Hi, I''m a bit stuck with mocking a unit test of a join model with regards to a validates_uniqueness_of clause.

Hi, Why does ActiveRecord allow perception of success when updating an ID, however it doesn''t really work(i.e. no change in database)? Here''s an example. The update of "id" versus update of a non-existent attribute. ?> ai = AccountItem.find(:first) => #<AccountItem id: 1, account_id: 1, date: "2009-01-11", amount:

Getting a strange error. In a story I have the following step: When "I submit a search name" do xhr :post, ''/searches'', {:search => {:given_name => "bob", :family_name => "smith"}} end I am getting: ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (4 for 3) stories/searching_story_spec.rb:45 in "I submit a search name" But I only

Hi all, I have a TDM2400 full of FXS cards and a TDM800 full of FXO cards. If I have a fax machine on the FXS port dialing out through asterisk on the TDM800 FXO, should I be expecting any problems? Or should this just work as expected? (ie, flawlessly with the asterisk box essentially transparent to the whole operation). I am doing it this way to allow many faxes and modems to share a dial

Hello all, I've played with background and play sounds apps and googled around and asked the list before to no avail. Does anyone know of a way to have tones played during the call progress stage of the call? We (especially on some international circuits) get up to 5 seconds of silence before the phone starts ringing or is busy. I don't want to force "R" on the Dial app as

Hi all of both RoR Core and TMail. You may know me better as the maintainer of TMail. However, TMail has been a bit difficult to get working with Ruby 1.9, so in the light of that, I sat down over the past few months and wrote myself an all encompasing mail gem. Mail passes all of its hundreds of specs equally well in Ruby 1.8.6, 1.8.7 and 1.9.1. Mail reads every email in the TMail test suite

OK everyone, so we finally have Mail merged into ActionMailer replacing out TMail This is for the 3.0 release, and not part of the 2.x tree. I am the TMail maintainer and I decided this year to write a ruby email handler, the Mail gem is my solution to this. Mail takes a very object oriented approach to email. It conforms to RFCs as closely as practical and parses the 0.5gb Trec and 2.5Gb

I am having a weird error that I have not had before... I''m bouncing it off the list to see if anyone else has had it, or to give me some pointers about how to find it. Basically, AUTOTEST will run (RSpec mode), fine, then suddenly, will complain that RAILS_ROOT is undefined. Then I stop and restart it, with no code change... no problem. It happens on different specs where I use

Hi all. If I run rake features or cucumber features/* I get one failing FIT scenario in one of my features. If I then run that feature that contains the FIT table with the failing scenario manually, it passes. I run it again with rake features or cucumber features/* it fails, run individually, it passes. Obviously some state is carrying over between the features. Any idea where i would start

I am writing a small ruby script that will be accepting input from postfix''s pipe command (ie, not running via the shell, directly executing). One of the things I need to do it spec the exit codes to make sure I am returing the correct exit codes for each condition as Postfix will then return SMTP errors as appropriate. I have two files that concern this bit of the program, init.rb and

Hello all, Two questions: 1) What do people on the list do to debug phone quality issues. Phone quality seems to be a very subjective thing. But are there metrics that you can work against? Like maybe generating a tone and measuring the return quality etc? It looks like all trial and error right now. If that is the way it is, then fine. But anything more accurate / scientific? 2) Also

Let''s say you''re using the restful_authentication plugin. You have a model called articles. On the index action of the articlescontroller you simply want to spec out that it''ll scope the results to the ownership of the current_user. It should NOT include any articles other than the articles that user owns. How would you properly spec this out? Thanks for the help!

Hello all, I am getting Really Simple History working in rails. I''ve got this history content up etc, but I am a bit lost on how to capture the XHR response data from the Rails app to insert into the history. My understanding would be to have some way of grabbing the response data from the Rails app, inserting that into the history with dhtmlHistory.add(''PageName'',

What is the correct way to mock out the errors on a Rails model? I''m assuming i need to say @mock_thing = mock_model(Thing) @mock_thing_errors = mock("errors") @mock_thing_errors.should_receive(:full_messages).and_return("An error") @mock_thing.should_receive(:errors).and_return(@mock_thing_errors) Just wanted to check the best practice on this kind of thing and how

Hi all, Running on OSX 10.5.3, Latest Rspec trunk, Rspec rails trunk, latest autotest gem and rails 2.1 I''ve lost my colour output in autotest. rake spec gives colour output, but autotest gives me black and white. It was working a little bit before, I think I upgraded to the latest versions of everything to get all the textmate snippets talking and being friendly to one another again
