At times I''ve gotten the message "No Server Running" from drbspec with my rails app. The thing is, the drb server certainly is running! This happened a few times with my model specs. I''m not sure exactly what the problem was there - I believe I was loading up fixtures that didn''t exist. I was calling fixtures :singular_table_name as opposed to

Hi all I''ve upgraded the rails plugin from 0.7.5 to 0.7.5.1 (plugin/remove rspec_on_rails followed by : ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/REL_0_7_5_1/rspec_on_rails/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails I''ve also updated the rspec gem and removed the older version. I''m running rubygems 0.9.1 on a windows box however, when I try to run a spec

Hi there, I can''t upgrade rspec on rails to 0.7.5.1. I followed the install guide on the website without sucsess. Here''s my env info: $ rails -v Rails 1.2.2 $ gem -v 0.9.2 $ spec -v RSpec-0.7.5.1 (r1395) - BDD for Ruby http://rspec.rubyforge.org/ $ spec ... <snip> ############################################################################ Your RSpec on Rails plugin

I''ve got a spec that loads a fixture in the "before" block. This works fine running scripts/spec, but when I run rake spec instead, I get: ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in ''User in fixture :quentin with an IM service but no IM name should be invalid'' Mysql::Error: Cannot delete or update a parent row: a foreign key constraint fails

I''m getting the following error with version 0.8.0 (I updated the gem and the rails plugin, and re-ran generate/rspec): c:\wd\clarks>drbspec spec/models/user_spec.rb c:/ruby/bin/drbspec:16:in `load'': no such file to load -- drbspec (LoadError) from c:/ruby/bin/drbspec:16 the same command works fine under 0.7.5.1.

Hi there, Is it just me or do many other rspec / rpsec_on_rails users spend more time than they would like feeding the framework ? Don''t get me wrong, I love rpsec, but I seem to spend about 2/3 hours per week hunting down rspec problems. For example, today `rake spec:models` is broken. When I migrate, load fixtures and run `spec -cfs` all is well. When I run `rake spec:models`,

Hi, Since moving this morning from 0.7.5.1 to 0.8.2 I''ve hit some problems and I''m not sure if it''s something I''m doing wrong or a change in 0.8.2 Basically I dislike fixtures so I have been using a helper method to create an object I need frequently and setting it up in the setup method, in 0.7.5.1 this all worked fine - but since moving to 0.8.2

I started using the new Model.should_have(1).records expectation in rspec_on_rails, and quickly realized that my fixtures were remaining loaded, even in contexts that didn''t use them. Bug or feature? Jay Levitt

Is anyone else getting this message? With rails 2.0 pre-releases it looks like you also have to be working with the latest version of rpsec. $ ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/trunk/rspec svn: Connection closed unexpectedly The above is what I get when I try to install the trunk version. Is there something that I am missing? Thanks -- Posted via

I''m now using the 0.8.0 RC1 gem and have the same version of rspec and rspec_on_rails checked out into my vendor/plugins directory. I''m having a problems with controllers... I''ve generated a controller using the ./script/generate rspec_controller MyController. When I try to run the rake spec:controller task I get the following: euclid% rake spec:controllers (in

Hey, I just updated from the edge and it looks like this _issue_ has resurfaced. Yesterday things were working (stories and specs). No code base changes, only rspec and rspec_on_rails After updating today I now need to set <config.txn...fixtures> to false in the spec_helper.rb to get the specs running, the stories are fine. Looks like the fixture loading is trying to start a txn. I

Hi there, I''ve installed rspec, rails plugin & generators thusly: $ sudo gem install rspec $ sudo gem install rspec_generator $ sudo gem install zentest -v 3.4.1 $ ./script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/REL_0_7_2/vendor/rspec_on_rails/vendor/plugins/rspec $ ./script/generate rspec $ ./script/generate rspec_model ModelName With Rails version: $ rails

RSpec-ers: I''m aware this is quite the FAQ. I have probably asked it myself, but I just can''t Google up anything but others asking it. I grabbed the source to Beast, to use as a Rails project uninfluenced by me, or RSpec. Then I installed the CURRENT version of RSpec and rspec_on_rails, and set up a model spec on Post. Here''s the spec_helper.rb lines:

Dear Fellows: I was using fixtures in the model tests using Rspec. I found that the test data specified in the fixtures was stored in the test database once I ran the spec and won''t be removed anyway. Is my observation correct? There might be another problem regarding the fixtures. When I ran the specs one by one, it was working. However, it failed when I tried to run all the

I''m trying to write specs for a plugin I''m developing named audit_fu, and I''m running into a problem which I can''t get past it. I''ve got the same specs setup in the main rails app, and everything works fine there, it''s just running the plugin specs that I''m having a problem with. My setup is: - edge rails - edge rspec (in

I have found useful to have the table information associated to models disp?ayed in the models and fixtures files of my rails applications. If you want to add this information to the spec_fixtures and specs add the following patch to your plugin. Index: vendor/plugins/annotate_models/lib/annotate_models.rb =================================================================== ---

Is it possible to specify that certain tables not be cleared on each example. I''ve inherited a project where a good amount of enumerated data is stored in the database (US States, statuses, about 15-20 tables worth. Over all, it''s a reasonable decision that leads to solid production code (acts_as_enumerated is good). This data is read-only and relatively static; any

Hello, I have recently upgraded to the 0.8.2 release of rSpec, and I am receiving the following message with each view spec execution: WARNING: there is no transaction in progress I have upgraded the rspec_on_rails plugin as well, and both the model and controller tests are working flawlessly. Is there some simple step I missed? thanks for the input. -Chris -------------- next part

Hi, I would like to test a sorting method that is in the user model, it''s a class method called search. What I would like to do is create 2 users and load the test database with just those 2 users, so that I can call User.search("john") and it would return those two users. Not sure how to clear the test database and populate it just with these 2 users for that specific
