First off, thanks for the great library. Is there a way setup expects with this: runtime_options[:property] = properties_option_string or do i have to use: runtime_options.store(:property, properties_option_string) which results in this: runtime_options.expects(:store).with(:property, ''prop1=1'') Thanks for your help. jeremy

Hello. I have discovered that mongrel does not correctly take on all the groups of the requested user/group combination. It seems that while the specified user and group is correctly activated, all the other groups that are associated with this user are not enabled and the group permissions remain the same as the caller (i.e. root). This problem (and solution) is discussed in the Ruby Forum:

I wrote this abomination just now, and wonder if anyone else has had experience with the pattern behind it. In short, I''m specing an after_create hook on an ActiveRecord model, that calls a bunch of private methods. Instead of stubbing all those private methods (which is verboten anyway, as well as impossible because creating the object which owns those methods is what I''m

Hello All, first post to the list. I just checked out trunk and it broke my tests. Turns out that the BREAK_RE regex found in base.rb is missing the "/m" mode modifier. I am still getting my head around the library so i may be missing something but was that done on purpose? Thanks. jeremy Index: base.rb =================================================================== --- base.rb

How would you spec out a call to Signal.trap (a ^C or a unix SIGINT)? Scott

Hi, (This is my first post after months of appreciative lurking...) I''m trying to spec the following conditional controller macro: class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base # turn off session management for robots session :off, :if => lambda {|req| req.user_agent =~ /(Google|Slurp)/i } # ... end My current attempt seems to be quite unsuccessful: 1) when I

Dear All, I have a asterisk setup that is currently running on version 1.4.15 - I wish to upgrade or migrate this instance to the current asterisk stable, 1.6.0.6. It is my intention to build a FC8 box, then install asterisk from source, and begin to migrate over the configuration. The thing is, this sounds so simple in my head, and I've had enough issues with asterisk, to know that life

In "An Introduction to R" (See R help menu), there is an example of a function 'open.account' that makes use of the lexical scope in R. I have a set of functions that can be used to output R tables and graphics into a single report document. (I am aware that several tools can do this already). While reorganizing my code, I realize that I can collect my functions in a list, in

Greetings, I am having a couple issues setting up Icecast on my server and I am in need of assistance. 1) the front end page is not building ( files exposed ) 2) I got it started but only 1 mount can connect at a time. I have EZstream running perfectly but I can not have 2 people connected to different mounts at the same time. Can you give me some guidance or point me to the right direction? I

(oops, accidentally sent this to the rspec-devel list, sorry about that) Could someone help me spec out these Rails controller methods? I don''t know where to get started, especially with the transaction stuff. Or, if anyone else could suggest ways I could improve the code, that would be great as well. Puzzle has_one Media. Both are AR model objects. class PuzzlesController <

i wrote a little camping app which serves the css, js and images statically using the Static class example i found on the camping wiki. everything works perfectly on my mac. once on windows the static files don''t get served. a 404 is returned. i have tried running the app using camping, webrick and mongrel, all give the same 404 response. here is an example value of X-Sendfile. I have

Hello all, I''m new to Mongrel and am very impressed with what I see so far. This thing beats FastCGI hands down, and is even simpler to use than SCGI. Great job Zed! Thanks for all the hard work. I am a bit surprised at the memory usage patterns though. I''m not sure if I''m doing something wrong (most likely I am), or if this is a problem with the app I''m

Hi all ! I just started writing specs on a new project. I would just like to validate that this is the way you would write it. I know about mocks, stubs and expectations. I don''t think this is a problem for me. My question really boils down to: def index @projects = current_user.projects.active end My spec needs to return the proxy, no ? Here''s my code: context "A

Folks, I''d like to spec the behaviors that I''m adding to ApplicationController. Specifically, I''m adding: def authenticated? session[:username] != nil end I described ApplicationController, but couldn''t figure out how to call the authenticated method. I''m probably going about this quite wrongly and would appreciate any hints? Thanks, Scott --

How would I spec a call to exit? I can''t seem to stub it - rspec throws an error. Scott

I''m spec''ing a model with an observer that sends mail. Mailers behave similarly to controllers, so to make the whole thing work, I believe something like integrate_views has to be available. Has anyone dealt with observers and ActionMailer? Thanks

Hi all, I''m in the process of creating rspecs for my helpers. One of the helpers in app/helpers/application_helper.rb looks like this: def page_name @page_name || "Define @page_name in #{controller.controller_name}::#{controller.action_name}" end The rspec is simply: it "should something" do page_name end

I''ve been getting my head around view spec''ing lately for a fairly complex project that makes heavy use of partials in views and I have hit up against a style puzzle. I see two strategies for spec''ing views: First: Develop detailed specs for each partial and then make sure that the final view expects that the appropriate partials are included and used. Pros:

I want to isolate and spec methods that are shared by controllers, and live in application.rb. Whereas I usually also provide examples in individual controllers that use these methods, not necessarily all the edge cases and I''d like to isolate the examples. This is the approach I''m taking (thanks to bryanl for suggestions and http://pastie.caboo.se/123626). WDYT? This
