similar to: Something like rcov but more explicit?

Hey list, RSpec is great, I''ve been using it at work for a couple of months now. One gripe I have is that I find it hard to know exactly to what extent my code is covered by the specs. I am aware of RCov and Heckle; they''re great, but I''d like to demonstrate another perspective of coverage analysis I''ve hacked up. The perspective is that of what is mocked and

Thanks, first, to everyone who''s asked and answered questions on this list, and to the creators of RSpec - it is all very helpful. I''ve searched the mailing list, and had a couple 2hr googling sessions that didn''t help me find an answer. I''ve run into a problem getting my first non-trivial view spec to run. I get an error when trying to generate a link_to()

Hey, I''m using rspec and rails and have a spec that tests if a before_filter is executed, I also have a spec that tests if a method called by the filter is executed. It appears however that when I should_receive something, it is no longer actually called when I fire the http request. I''m not sure how, or where exactly I should manually fire the filter, either before or after the

Hi, I''m trying out RSpec with the heckle option (for mutation testing). Problem is that heckle goes into an infinite loop when running it on an example. I want to send a "--verbose" to heckle but can''t find a way to do that through the spec binary. Since this is not an uncommon situation when using heckle I would like this to be supported in some way by RSpec.

I''ve tried running Heckle with rspec on some of my classes, but keep getting (what I believe to be) an infinite recursion. Is there some way to supply extra options to heckle via. rspec? Scott

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:

Hi Are there any tools around that make rspec''s failure messages easier to read? unit_diff from ZenTest doesn''t seem to work - unless I missed something. A simple but very helpful improvement would be to use more line- breaks, e.g. Current output: expected "this is a very long string blah blah", got "this is a very very long string blah blah" (using

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 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

I''ve created a short patch so that spec.opts can use a single line (or multiple lines for backwards compatibility) for options. I''ve run the specs against spec:trunk I have two questions: 1. I''ve run rake pre_commit, but after the specs are done running, I get this error: rake aborted! ERROR while running webgen: /opt/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/

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,

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

How do I run Heckle with RSpec? I''ve tried rake spec --heckle but get no output. I''ve tried just -heckle too, as mentioned in the docs, but that isn''t accepted as a valid option and the help out is displayed. I have both the heckle and rspec-rails gems in my Gemfile, and running Rails 3, and have the latest beta version (at the time 17) installed. 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

Why is RJS so dependant on programatic creation of Javascript? RHTML is a great implementation in that it puts HTML first, and Ruby second. I would have thought RJS would be the same way: a .js with ERb helpers for generating Javascript functions. RJS putting Javascript second means: - I have to learn a whole new set of commands to use Scriptaculous. - Developers have to constantly chase the

Hi all, I've come across a very strange bug with Xapian 1.0.9.0 and the Turkish query parser when trying to index a string (as posting) that looks like this: "...bir araya getiren CD'leri son teknolojiyle piyasaya...". The actual offending bit of the string is: 'leri It throws the message I have shown below. The real annoyance is that I can't seem to catch it because it

I''ve finally managed to find some time to do some serious work on Mocha. There are some code snippets on my blog (http://blog.floehopper.org/articles/2007/04/12/preview-of-latest-mocha-changes) showing the new functionality available in trunk (revision 128). I don''t don''t know how many people out there are using trunk, but it would be great to get some feedback on these

I know this is probably a meaningless metric, but I''m new to TDD and would like to know what to expect in terms of lines of code of tests to lines of code in a "typical" rails app. It seems like it could be as much as 5:1 or more. Perhaps its more like number of test methods : lines of code is closer to 1:1 ?

Hi there I just started my first Merb app and I''m running into some weird things in Specs. When I do: describe "create action" do it "should create a new project" do project_params = {:name => ''bekkunin''} Project.should_receive(:create).with(project_params) controller, action = post(''/projects'', :project
