similar to: autotest and rspec for a non-rails project

Josh Knowles http://joshknowles.com/ just let me know that ZenTest Autotest 3.50 now handles your RSpec specs. http://blog.zenspider.com/archives/2007/04/zentest_version_350_has_been_released.html That''s a great news. Josh also shared with me a quick hack to make autotest work with only the RSpec plugin installed. Add the following into your ~/.autotest file

Has anyone else encountered this problem? What I mean is, rspec_autotest runs all specs, then waits. When you change a spec, it reruns that spec. However, if that spec now passes, it should run the whole suite again, so you can see the next one to work on. It no longer does this. This renders it somewhat useless. Does anyone have autotest working with rspec 0.7.5, or does anyone have any

I haven''t been spec''ing lately, but been hopping back on and adding autotest. However I get an error: http://pastie.caboo.se/177538/wrap I also noticed a post by Scott and there was mention of rspec_autotest. Is this is what everyone is using? http://svn.caldersphere.net/svn/main/plugins/rspec_autotest/

Is the rspec_autotest plugin mentioned here, http://blog.nicksieger.com/articles/2006/11/15/rspec-autotest-now-a-rails-plugin the accepted method of auto testing specs? It''s an old article, and after grabbing the plugin, and giving it a run, it fails with: $ rake spec:autotest:rails trunk/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/dsl/behaviour/rails_example.rb:31: undefined method

Hi, Is it possible to run both autotest and rspec_autotest at the same time while I convert my tests over to specs? autotest seems to either want to run one or the other. Also, rspec_autotest doesn''t seem to red/green the error/successes. It should, right? Thanks, Joe

Hi, When I start the "autotest" it gives me the following error...not sure what HOME path I have to set...all Ruby/Rails related components are in path! --- C:\>autotest -rails C:/Tools/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ZenTest-3.3.0/lib/autotest.rb:285:in `expand_path'': couldn''t find HOME environment -- expanding `~/.autotest'' (ArgumentError) ---

When I work with a .html.erb file, the autotest rspec on rails stuff doesn''t understand the file to map it to the right test. I wanted to submit a patch for this, but I''m unsure where the specs would be to update. I found the necessary mapping in rspec_autotest.rb, but I can''t find any specs anywhere. Help? I just need to have /app/views/coupon/index.html.erb to map to

How can I spec out a rake task? How can I use rake in my spec''s? I want to fix this rake spec:autotest bug with --drb and --color. How can I get rake output? How would I get out of autotest? My initial thought is just to run the command in the spec. Scott

Is anyone using rspec with autotest? Scott

Hi all, I tried testing with Rspec for first time, following a tutorial. "rspec spec/" works fine but when I try ''autotest'' it gives me the error message below. I also made a gist about it: https://gist.github.com/779265 It seems like a redgreen or ZenTest error. I''m using Ubuntu10, Rails3, Ruby 1.9 and RVM. Any help is appriciated, thanks in advance, gezope

I''m having trouble getting autotest to run "out of the box" with rspec. I''ve got a Leopard setup with Zentest 3.5.0, rspec on trunk, and rails 2.0PR. No ".autotest" file. There are a couple of issues: 1. Running ''autotest'' inititally yields a command not found for "spec --diff unified etc etc". This seems to be an old issue but

I''ve got rspec and zentest installed as well as the rspec rails plugin, and my model/controller specs all pass and work well. I can''t seem to get views to work though - 100% of the specs fail with: NoMethodError in ''/users/show.rhtml should render attributes in <p>'' protected method `render'' called for

I managed to have Autotest running on my windows box. Apparently all is working but every time I know there is an error a new line is generated, no error messages or anything is sent to the console.

This applies to anyone using rspec''s trunk from >= 3220 with ZenTest <= 3.7.2. Anyone else, feel free to move on.... The next release of ZenTest, coming soon, includes some changes that improve the relationship between Autotest, it''s subclasses (like those in rspec) and .autotest, the file that you can use to plug into autotest''s hooks to extend/modify

I am using latest version for rspec-rails, ZenTest. I am getting following error, when ever I try to run autotest. Please help -head at mhart6/gems/ZenTest-4.6.2/lib/autotest.rb:315:in `load'': /Users/ jayparteek/.autotest:7: invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII) (SyntaxError)

Hey, I''m trying to configure autotest with rspec on cygwin but something is going wrong. I made a very simple testing environment with a user.rb and user_spec.rb file. Rspec works fine, but autotest outputs nothing - it just stays here, idle. ^C doesn''t display anything more. I can see it''s running because I added require ''autotest/snarl'' in my
