Test First Development is great...But should you use it when you are adding classes/methods on to external library that doesn''t have an extensive test suite? I noticed that the rspec plugin for autotest has no specs. David Chemlinsky said something to the list a while back that has been stewing in my subconscious - that you develop software differently using Test First

Hey list, Does anything exist that can show me which lines are explicitly tested? RCov is great, but it doesn''t really give a sense of _actual_ coverage, indeed, there is no guarantee that functions executed were in fact called as the result of a line being tested. I know nothing of the rspec internals, but would a simple list of executed lines be a relatively simple feature to add?

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

Just a thought, it would be interesting to track and graph the number of examples (and number implemented) on a daily basis as a way of tracking a project progress.

does story runner have commandline options ,eg to add color to output?

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''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, 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 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

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

Do have the latest versions?

Hi, It appears that if I have 2 should_receives in a row, the latest one overrides the previous one(s). If there isn''t one, could we add a way to accumulate them, such as @thing.should_receive(:method).and_return(@value) @thing.should_receive(:method).again.and_return(@value) @thing.should_receive(:method).again.and_return(@value) would be equivalent to

Hi, rather than flooding this list with separate emails, I''ve been queueing up questions using rspec with rails. (an irc channel would be nice too :) Here ya go... - Is there a way to test named routes? - Could I get an example how to test an ajax request (link_to_remote)? would that go in view? and/or in controller spec? - Can you assert which layout template is rendered in a

Can you run rdebug on specs? I get errors when I try: $ rdebug spec ./spec/models/select_option_spec.rb ./spec: Is a directory - ./spec (Errno::EISDIR) from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ruby-debug-0.9.3/bin/ rdebug:136:in `debug_load'' from /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ruby-debug-0.9.3/bin/ rdebug:136 from /opt/local/bin/rdebug:16:in `load''

This may be a dumb noob issue, but I haven''t found any answers while seaching the forum-- I have a controller method def edit @user = User.find params[:id] @user.password_confirmation = @user.password end The User class has an "attr_accessor :password_confirmation" definition (so "password_confirmation" doesn''t exist in the users table). My spec

Hi I''ve spec''d a class and they pass. Now I''d like to assure that any subclass of this class also passes the same specs. Any suggestions for a clever way to handle this? I''d prefer to keep the existing specs as is (eg instead of moving everything into shared behaviors, or doing something to all the ''describe'' lines) thanks linoj

I''m sure this is OT but I''d appreciate the help I''m using rspec_on_rails I prefer to use stable release rather than live dangerously (at least until I can tell the difference between what I might be doing wrong vs problems in rspec). However, I would like to try the RspecScaffoldGenerator fix. I installed (per the docs) last week with the following commands

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
