hi all I''m seeing strange behaviour when running specs using spec_server. They take longer to execute, and it looks like none of examples are being run. here''s the output for a simple spec file using just the spec command: ---------- foo at holly:~/rails/allison$ time ruby/script spec spec/models/listing_spec.rb ...... Finished in 0.060469 seconds 6 examples, 0 failures <

We''d like to get some feedback on RSpec 0.9 before we start pushing out releases via Rubyforge''s gem server and update the website. We have therefore made the first beta of 0.9 available - both prepackaged and tagged in subversion (see below). RSpec 0.9 introduces a new API for expectations, which essentially means that your underscores go away (there has been other discussions

Hello, I have a controller action that raises a RecordNotFound exception if you''re not allowed to see something. In my global application controller (application.rb), I catch these and render the 404 template. But when I run cucumber (using webrat), it''s getting the full stacktrace (the step blows up). Any ideas why? I have consider_all_requests_local turned off in my test.rb.

I have a step definition like this: Then "the account should be created" do account = Account.find_by_name("my shiny new account") p account.class account.should_not be_blank end When running this step, I got the error message: Account(id: integer, name: string, state: string, next_renewal_at: date, created_at: datetime, updated_at: datetime, full_domain: string,

Hello, Is anyone else having trouble with the and_raise method on mocks, with respect to shared behaviors? If I do the following instead: foo.should_receive(:bar).and_return { raise } everything seems to work. I have been supplying no arguments to and_raise, by the way. Also, you may want to make the background in the code examples on the home page a little lighter. I am hardly able to

Has the should_... syntax changed? I''m getting errors when running the following: should_render(:index) should_be_valid should_not_be_valid should_respond_to should_be should_render I thought the syntax changed to something like the following: obj.should render(:index) but this doesn''t seem to work.

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,

Hi, I just moved from 1.08 to 1.10 and now have one example failing, which, under 1.08, passed. Is the due to a change in behaviour? Here''s my spec (removed some passing examples) require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../spec_helper'' describe "A user" do before(:each) do @user = User.new @valid_user = User.new( :email =>

Being new to testing and ruby, are there "standard" tests that can be done that test for things like cross site scripting and friends? If not, anyone have ideas on what I might do about testing those sorts of things? I''ll be using rails, also.

rspec_resource_generator ======================== By Pat Maddox Use this generator to generate RESTful scaffolding with RSpec specifications. Syntax is exactly the same as the scaffold_resource generator: ./script/generate rspec_resource ModelName [field:type field:type] When you run this generator, it will create a migration, model, and model spec file. In addition, it gives you a RESTful

Hey guys, I''m running spec_server and using --drb with my specs in Rails, and I''m seeing virtually no speed up. I''m using rspec/rspec_on_rails trunk. Is there something I''m doing wrong?

Hi all, I released RSpec 0.7.4 yesterday, and by now the gems should have rsync''ed to all the mirrors. This release features a complete redesign of the reports generated with --format html. You can see some examples of it here: http://rspec.rubyforge.org/report.html http://rspec.rubyforge.org/tools/failing_examples.html As usual there are many bug fixes - mostly related to spec/rails.

Mocha''s mock/stub framework has the ability to stub all methods on a mock given. Does RSpec''s mocking framework have this ability? And if not, is there some reason it shouldn''t be implemeneted? Regards, Scott

Hi, I am using JRuby (trunk) and wrote a bunch of specifications for my code. Everything works fine so far. Now I am trying to integrate RCov in my test run. I have installed RCov without the C extensions. I tried it with a simple script and it worked (pretty slow, but it doesn?t matter). But when I add the rcov options to my Rake task, RCov is not invoke properly! Rakefile:

hi, first time trying rspec, and rails edge. Are there any known issues running rspec with rails edge? for one, apparently script/generate scaffold_resource has been renamed just "resource". Do I just search/replace "scaffold_resource" with "resource" in file rspec_resource_generator.rb ? Somethings still missing. before i get "Couldn''t find

I''m taking my first fledgling steps driving a new ruby (non-rails) project with BDD. I''ve got a (test) story working. However, when I run the story in TextMate (via command-r), the output is plain text.

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
