Autotest is running continuously - even when the files mtimes aren''t changing. I believe this only happens if using a failures file. autotest -v gives me: euclid% autotest -v loading autotest/rails_rspec /opt/local/bin/ruby -S script/spec -O spec/spec.opts spec/ controllers/log_entries_controller_spec.rb spec/views/login/ new_spec.rb spec/controllers/login_controller_spec.rb

Hi I''m new and using Ruby on Rails 3 but when I run $ autotest nothing happens (I have growl installed). If I run $ rspec spec then I get the ''Finished in 0.07253 seconds seconds 2 example, 0 failures'' message I have the following gems installed for autotest (checked via $ gem list): autotest (4.3.2) autotest-fsevent (0.2.4, 0.2.2) autotest-growl (0.2.9, 0.2.4)

Hi all - I''ve just posted a quick plugin that adds notification of test failures via the Growl framework (http://growl.info) for OS X users. Its a great way to keep up with your test suite, especially when coupled with autotest. And if you''re anything like me, you probably already have Growl rocking. Anyway, see my blog for details on installing the plugin:

Dear all, I try to show a subset of coefficients in my presentation. It seems that a "standard" table is not a good way to go. I found figure 9 (page 9) in this file ( http://www.destatis.de/jetspeed/portal/cms/Sites/destatis/Internet/DE/Content/Wissenschaftsforum/Kolloquien/VisualisierungModellierung__Beitrag,property=file.pdf ) looks pretty good. I wonder if there is any function for

I''m trying to get really serious about doing true BDD for a new Rails project, and I note that at <http://rspec.rubyforge.org/documentation/ rails/index.html> it says: "we really don?t recommend the use of rails fixtures" On the same page it also says (about Model specs): "these are the only specs that we feel should actually interact with the database"

Dear all, is there any function to assert whether a file path is legitimate, and to convert any potential file path to a legitimate file path? I automate a batch of files and write them to plain text files with cat(). The file argument of cat() is generated automatically which may contain characters such as ? < >, unacceptable in Windows OS. What I do at this moment is to strip such

Dear all, I have a list like this: l <- list(list(a=1,b=NULL), list(a=2,b=2)) I want to find out the elements with value of NULL and replace them with NA. The actual case has a very long list, so manually find out and replace them is not an option. I can use for loop to do this, but I want to know if there is vectorized way (or other ways) to do it? Thanks -- Wincent Rong-gui HUANG Doctoral

Dear all, I encountered a core dump like this, (R:24072): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_drawable_get_display: assertion `GDK_IS_DRAWABLE (drawable)' failed *** caught segfault *** address 0x78, cause 'memory not mapped' Possible actions: 1: abort (with core dump, if enabled) 2: normal R exit 3: exit R without saving workspace 4: exit R saving workspace Selection: 1 aborting ...

Where should the specs go for code in the "lib" directory of a Rails app? I made a folder, "spec/lib/", for storing such specs, and RSpec automatically picks them up when run using "rake spec". Before I go ahead and patch rspec_on_rails/lib/autotest/ rails_rspec.rb so that autotest can monitor these specs I''d like to ask whether this is the

First up, congratulations to the team on RSpec 1.0.0! RSpec is one of the most vibrant and professionally-run projects in the world of Ruby open source. Now that there is a commitment to a stable API I think we''ll see RSpec really take off. Two quick things... In the absence of official Spec::UI docs, can Spec::UI be installed as a Rails plug-in? eg. script/plugin install

The incorrect result incurs when the file path contains Chinese character. It seems that dirname/basename action on unit of byte instead of char, so the result in the following example is half of what is expected. > g<-"d:\\$BG!2L4^M-CfJ8(B\\$BG!2L4^M-CfJ8(B.txt" > dirname(g) [1] "d:/$BG!2L4^(B" > basename(g) [1] "$BG!2L4^M-(B" -- HUANG Ronggui,

I''m having trouble using autotest with rspec on a non-rails project. my Rspec gem is version 1.0.8, ZenTest is 3.6.2 project structure $ ls * lib: parser.rb spec: parser_spec.rb autotest finds and runs the spec, but it won''t detect changes to lib/parser.rb I know it''s something stupid, but... help? -- Rick DeNatale My blog on Ruby

Given the following ApplicationController specs: describe ApplicationController, "one facet", :shared => true do it ''foo'' ... it ''bar'' ... end describe ApplicationController, "some other facet", :shared => true do it ''abc'' ... it ''xyz'' ... end describe

I''ve been working on a Rails project with one other developer; he was using Test::Unit, and I was using RSpec. That works OK for a while, but obviously it starts causing pain when you have to check in two places to see if a piece of code is properly tested/spec''d, you can''t use TextMate shortcuts to switch back and forth between code and test, you have to duplicate

The Rails ApplicationController (app/controllers/application.rb) serves as an abstract superclass for all other controllers in a Rails application and is a good place to put methods and filters which you want all of your controllers to use. In my case I''m using it to provide methods such as "current_user" and "logged_in?" etc. By default, RSpec

Sys.setlocale(,"C") x1 <- as.character(date()) # I use date to record the time, and save it to sqlite database, to it converted to character x1_2 <- strptime(x1, "%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y") x2 <- as.character(date()) x2_2 <- strptime(x2, "%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y") X<-c(x1_2,x2_2) order(X) ## I want to get the permutation other than the sorted vector. ##

Can somebody please review my ticket: https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/4879 It''s a trivial bugfix ("option_groups_from_collection_for_select should produce an HTML-safe string") before RC, I think.
