Hi! What I''m trying at the moment is to build specifications for some background thread code. What I want is a class Task and a class TaskRunner. The TaskRunner should run a task in a background thread. It should also indicate the status of the running task when calling the running? method. That''s basically, what I came up with so far: class TaskRunner def initialize

Hello Rspecers, I have a rails project where I am calling Resolv::DNS.open and then using the block to check a domain name. The code snippet in question is: domain = "mytest.com" Resolv::DNS.open do |dns| @mx = dns.getresources(domain, Resolv::DNS::Resource::IN::MX) end I obviously want to stub this out, especially for speed but can''t quite work out how. I

Hi, imagine there''s a class called Egg which has the following method (which calls another method): <CODE> def do_thing has_iterated = false self.each_row do |row| has_iterated = true unless has_iterated end has_iterated end </CODE> Stupid code, I know. I have two questions with it. The first is, would it be possible to set it up to test the case when each_row

Dear all, Why does not the three-dot accept arguments from the parent environment? I am just confused with this error, can someone give me a hint? > rm(list=ls()) > testFun <- function(a, ...) + { + if(a){ + print(a) + }else + { + print(b) + } + } > > myTask <- function(a) + { + b <- 3 + testFun(a, b = b) + } >

During context switch is_running is set for the next vcpu before the gic state is actually saved. This leads to possible nasty races when interrupts need to be injected after is_running is set to the next vcpu but before the currently running gic state has been saved from the previous vcpu. Use current instead of is_running to check which one is the currently running vcpu: set_current is called

Hi I''ve come up with a problem using RSpec on a model class in my rails app. I wanted to test that some data was being cached for some calculations, so rather than do state-based testing I tried to specify that the method that fetches the data should NOT be called when I call the calculate method. However in doing so I have to simulate the return value, which is about 27

I have a mock of an instance of a class which descends from Array: class ArrayDescendent < Array; end #... in the specs... @descendent = mock ArrayDescendent How would I stub out ArrayDescendent#each, which is inherited from Array, to return multiple values successively? I could use and_yield, but that is raising an arity error (the anonymous function/ block should expect only *one

Hi Code with a large number of different paths is probably the biggest problem I have right now. I''ve made a sample class that illustrates the simplest case of one parameter that takes two values: class DataStorer def initialize(logger, emailer, db_updater, do_update_db_step) @logger = logger; @emailer = emailer; @db_updater = db_updater

Hi, I''m working with wxruby since 2 days but next to this Wiki: http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl and this Doc: http://wxruby.rubyforge.org/doc/ I couldn''t find something usefull for it. Also del.icio.us has no intresting links. Do you know any good website or book about wxruby? My problem at the moment is, I wanna test the TaskBarIcon on Gnome and so I did:

I''ve just found myself stuck trying to rspec something so am hoping someone more knowledgable can help. I have a Connector class which has a class method ''results'' that yields results it get from a network service based on a set of attributes that I pass to it. I am wanting to yield these results from my Intermediate class up to the next

Hey guys and gals, I have a snippet of code: Net::SMTP(@host, @port, @from_domain) do |smtp| @emails.each do |email| begin smtp.send_message email.encoded, email.from, email.destinations @emails_sent += 1 rescue Exception => e # blah end end end What I want to do is: Say there are 4 emails. First email is sent OK On the second email smtp raises a IOError

I''ve found myself mocking out a published api in my set-up method. This has led to some contexts having a large set-up and empty specifications. As the mocks get auto-verified, the specification blocks have nothing to do but serve as documentation. Does this sound bad? Chris

I have the following code, which yields instance eval''s the block given: class Foo def bar(&blk) instance_eval &blk end def baz yield end end The effect of this is that self is reassigned: Foo.new.bar do # here, self is the instance of Foo # created by new end But normally self is the object in which Foo.new.bar {...} occurs. Foo.new.baz do

There is one annoyance I''m encountering with the Mock API in rSpec. Overall it works well, as far as dynamic mocks go ;)... but there''s this one thing... It doesn''t allow overriding of expectations. example: m = mock("blah") m.should_receive(:one).any_number_of_times().and_return(1) m.should_receive(:one).and_return(1) The second call to should_receive

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

My app uses account_location to set up subdomains as account keys. In my controllers, all my model operations are scoped through the @current_person object. The question is: How do I test this with RSpec''s mocking and stubbing? Basically, I need to test that @current_person.things is getting the find message and returning @thing. I''ve tried stubbing and mocking

Not sure if this is possible currently. I have a section of code like this: ActiveRecord::Base.transaction do cow.save! duck.save! dog.save! end (Names changed to protect the innocent.) I''d like to specify that the saves run in a transaction. I can do ActiveRecord::Base.should_receive(:transaction).and_yield But is there any way to specify that the code is
