Hi! It seems that migration doesn''t use single transcation to execute the needed migrations for the database upgrade, so if I have database at version 5, and I wrote some migrations 6..10, and error occurs while executing migration 7, the database stays in state 6? I also think that migration taks could use some more verbosity, for example if migration fails, there''s no

Hi! Is there an option that I could provide to the spec runner that would make it stop after it encounters the first spec that fails? Esad

Hi! The following example doesn''t work for me: http://pastie.caboo.se/41732 However, if the call to msg() happens in the specify block after the expecation and not in the setup, it will pass. Why is this? I thought the setup method was there to actually ''construct'' the context and the specifications are some kind of "postconditions" that only need to be

Hi! I''m using Migration to define my database schema and these "ALTER TABLE t ADD FOREIGN KEY..." look really ugly - that''s why I wanted to ask it would be possible to simply add add_foreign_key method to ActiveRecord? Are there any reasons this isn''t yet implemented? Greetings, Esad -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi! Is there a nicer way of writing File.should be_exist(''filename'')? File.should exist(''foo'') throws NoMethodError in ''specification'' undefined method `exist'' for #<#<Class:0x3ec1c30>:0x3ebc308> (I''m using rspec from the trunk) Esad

Hello rspec-users, I''ve encountered a strange bug in rspec, but it may be me who is wrong. I''m running latest version from the trunk (r1678) of both rspec and rspec_on_rails. Please consider the following model: class Url < ActiveRecord::Base def after_save Contact.create!(:primary_email => ''user at example.com'') raise

Would it make sense for rake db:migrate to support creating databases if it is not found, with blessing from user to prevent typos, or as an additional command line switch. Or am I just being too lazy? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi! I''m thinking of implementing datagrid like functionality for showing data (models) in grids so that I don''t have to re-invent the view/controller for each table I need. There are number of parameters that need to be customizable: column titles, row style depending on the data (i.e. showing all rows with balance<0 in red), is column sortable, sort-algorithm etc. To

Hi! Is it possible to render the action within the after_filter method, or is the rendering performed before? I have something like this: class FooController after_filter :send def a @content=... end def b @content=.. end protected def send send_data(@content,...) end end However, when calling the action a or b, the @content doesn''t get sent, but instead

Hi! I''m writing a datagrid plugin and would like to render the datagrid using a .rhtml template. However, I''d like to avoid placing this template in app/views/shared, but it should reside somewhere within vendor/plugins/datagrid/... Any ideas? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I am a bit of a rails and rspec noob. I am trying to use rspec in conjunction with CruiseControlrb. When I run a cruise build having spec errors, the build does not indicate a failure. I have tried to track down why this is the case, and my best guess is that the spec task is kicking off the spec via a ruby() method in rake, and that ruby method does not propagate my spec failure back to

Hi, Just installed 0.9.4 (from 0.8 series) and ran the spec translator. It messed up specs that had the should include() where the argument to include is a string (using no parens for the arg) IOW, given: context "OldSchool" do class OldSchool attr_accessor collection def initialize @collection = [] end def add_new(item)

Brandon, can you get your Helpers to work in rspec 0.7 ? I''m including them in the context but the render fails to see it. If you have it working, I''ll go back and bang my head against it some more, otherwise I''ll file a bug! Many thanks, Jerry context "account/login (view)" do include StandardHelpers specify ''displays title

Hi all, I have an array of shipping_type''s being returned, and I want to see what is in there. In the past I have done: shipping_type.include?(Cart::SHIPPING_TYPE_REGULAR).should be_true This works, but looks really ugly.. It just doesn''t roll of the tongue very well. I then looked up the use of Predicates, which I had been using, but hadn''t realized:

Hi, Here''s two blog posts for those that need to test respond_to blocks and/or are currently using simply_helpful extensively. http://blog.methodmissing.com/2006/11/22/testing-different-content- types-with-rspec http://blog.methodmissing.com/2006/11/23/using-simply_helpful-with- rspec-controller-tests - Lourens

Hi! Is it possible to run unit tests when no database is configured? Rails recipes mentions putting following piece of code in a file within lib/tasks/ [:test_units,:test_functional,:recent].each do |name| Rake::Task.lookup(name).prerequisites.clear end However this seem to be out-of-date, as task lookup in rake according to RDoc is now done using Rake:Task[name]. But after I updated the

Hey all, I am currently working on coming up w/ an easy to use, developer-centric web testing framework to test a J2EE app with. (I have 3 rails apps in production, love rspec, and am currently at a java shop). I''ve looked at selenium, and it just doesn''t seem like it is ready for prime time, and the target audience is developers. So, having said that, does the rspec

Recently as a result of using Git I''ve noticed a number of inconsistencies in the RSpec codebase with respect to whitespace (mixed line endings, mixed use of spaces and tabs for indentation, and trailing whitespace at the end of lines). I never would have noticed, but Git produces nice colorized diff output which highlights these kinds of inconsistencies. I wanted to ask if the

Trunksters, I just added a couple of methods to ActionView::Base in Spec::Rails (as of r2136) that lets you do this in view examples: describe ''/things/index.html.erb'' do it "should render _thing with a collection of things" do assigns[:things] = things = [Object.new] template.expect_render(:partial => ''thing'', :collection => things)

Good morning (Pacific Time). I have a controller action that, as a side-effect, sends an email to an administrator. I want it to do something like this: specify "when someone successfully signs up, an email should be sent to the administrator with the person''s contact page" do post :signup, {...lots o'' params} response should_be success #
