Hello, I''ve just released rspec-ext 0.0.1 (http://rubyforge.org/projects/ rspec-ext/) It is gem-installable (rspec-ext gem) It is simply two _experimental_ (and may be not well tested) extensions of rspec as for now: * specify_negatively (http://rashkovskii.com/articles/2007/1/25/rspec- specify_negatively, http://rashkovskii.com/articles/2007/2/3/ specify_negatively-updated) *

Hello, Just decided to check whether I am doing something that makes sense or not. I was thinking about how cool would it be to re-use examples (just like we reuse story scenarios with GivenScenario). I was not sure if this possibility already exists in rspec (and, honestly, was lazy to check), so I have created this helper: def given_it(name) example_definition =

I''ve become very fond of Yurii Rashkovskii''s "aspects". For such a simple change they make it a LOT easier to navigate, read and verify specs. Are there any plans to include something like this in RSpec? Ashley

Hello, Just thought it could be interesting for some of you. I''ve written rspecs for acts_as_authenticated plugin. http://rashkovskii.com/articles/2007/01/01/rspec-on-rails- acts_as_authenticated I''m not sure they are 100% ok, but they seem to be :) Thank you, Yurii.

Hey, May be it is just too deep night over here and I''m missing something though I got this failure on {{{response.should_not redirect_to}}}: ''QueuesController should allow authenticated user to access ''show'''' FAILED Matcher does not support should_not. See Spec::Matchers for more information about matchers. Also I''ve found this in

Hi. I''m upgrading a project from an 0.8.0 pre-release gem to 0.8.2. I''ve installed the 0.8.2 gem, and the rspec_on_rails 0.8.2 plugin: ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/REL_0_8_2/rspec When I try to run my specs though, I get the below error. It''s as if the spec_helper cannot find "spec/rails". I''ve noticed that

The new "pending" example feature reminds me of a feature I''ve been bouncing around in my head, to aid in refactoring. Often, when I''m changing existing behaviour, I know that certain aspects of the old behaviour should change. Imagine changing the "it" method to perhaps "not" or "old" or "removed"... The behaviour would be to

We''d like to get some feedback on RSpec 0.9 before we start pushing out releases via Rubyforge''s gem server and update the website. We have therefore made the first beta of 0.9 available - both prepackaged and tagged in subversion (see below). RSpec 0.9 introduces a new API for expectations, which essentially means that your underscores go away (there has been other discussions

Dear all, sorry to bother you with potentially known issue -- we have noticed that if we select data frame rows by rownames, we get some results back if the match can be done unambiguously, though the match is not perfect (see example), e.g. x{"2",] will return a row if there is a unique row with name starting with "2" (but may be "2375745"!) is that a

First up, congratulations to the team on RSpec 1.0.0! RSpec is one of the most vibrant and professionally-run projects in the world of Ruby open source. Now that there is a commitment to a stable API I think we''ll see RSpec really take off. Two quick things... In the absence of official Spec::UI docs, can Spec::UI be installed as a Rails plug-in? eg. script/plugin install

Hey, just posting in case this is of interest. I just recently wrote a Rails plugin to convert Rails Test::Unit cases to RSpec. http://www.davidjrice.co.uk/articles/2007/8/12/ruby-on-rails-plugin- test-unit-to-rspec-converter it''s not going to work 100% in every case, but it''s really helped me convert old tests to the lovely RSpec :) Best, Dave --- David Rice

Hi, I''ve hacked together a setup to load an RSpec backtrace into jEdit (in other words, you''ll be able to click the relevant failed behaviour or error to go straight the relevant file and line). More info here: http://textgoeshere.org.uk/articles/2008/03/howto-integrate-rspec-on-rails-with-jedit/ -- Dave Nolan http://textgoeshere.org.uk -------------- next part --------------

Hi This is only part related to rspec but I asked the Rails list and didn''t get a reply so I thought I''d try here. Basically, since rspec_on_rails doesn''t have an equivalent to rails integration tests, I''m trying to find a way of doing automated acceptance tests. I''ve found selenium and watir, but I''m struggling to tell the two

Hey all, you HAVE to read this blog post: http://blog.jrock.us/articles/RSpec%20vs.%20Test::More.pod#comments My favorite parts are: 1) ... some rspec code ... > For the sake of comparison lets translate this directly into perl: ... some perl code ... 2) >First, notice that the rspec-version isn''t actually ruby code. It''s not any real language. For the sake of

Hi, I''m trying the specs for restful_authentication I found here http://jonathan.tron.name/articles/2007/01/02/rspec-on-rails-restful- authentication It seems to use custom .should methods: should_eql, should_be_an_instance_of, should_redirect_to, should_be_success, should_not_be_nil, should_be_nil, should_not_be_nil, should_be_empty, should_be_success, should_not_change, and

Hi Aslak, Thanks for the help. That bug is fixed in trunk.
