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

RSpec 0.9.4 has just been released. Gems haven''t rsync''ed around the globe yet, so you might have to wait a few hours to install it. The big news this time is Spec::Ui 0.2.0, which has been released along with RSpec core. This RSpec extension gives you custom Watir matchers (custom Selenium-RC matchers are not implemented yet). Moreover, it comes with a custom KICK ASS formatter

Hi all, (Sorry for cross-posting - please reply to only one list, preferrably wtr-general) I just started on a project where it looks like we might start using Watir. I just whipped up a little example and some doco about how to (and why) use RSpec with Watir. It''s in RSpec''s subversion under trunk/vendor/watir http://rubyforge.org/scm/?group_id=797

Rubies & Acceptance Testers: For those of you not doing acceptance tests yet, I have a very slick test rig to show off. I haven''t demo-ized it yet, so please accept these diverse audiovisual displays as if they were a united whole! We start with MiniRubyWiki, at this demo: http://www.zeroplayer.com/cgi-bin/wiki?TestFlea Click on any of the green bars. Now imagine if the left

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

The trunk now has some nifty improvements to the HTML report (--format html). Each failing spec will (in addition to the backtrace) have a box with a source code snippet of the offending code. If you have Jamis Buck''s syntax gem installed the code will also be syntax highlighted 8-D There has also been some major improvements to Spec::Ui, and it should be much easier to set up than

Hello. Sorry for this little offtopic question, but I was wondering if anyone happens to know if there''s any good conferences coming up about rspec or ruby or watir in this year where I could attend to? Or any good website where such things are listed or something similar. All suggested conferences should not take place before one month from now (employer needs some time to get good

The "rspec" rake task collects all _spec files in the spec directory, and excludes the "watir" directory. Is this indicating a preference for using Watir over Selenium? I would like it better to standardize on something more neutral, ''ui'' perhaps? /Marcus -- Marcus Ahnve http://marcus.ahnve.net

Big news for all Java programmers out there. Now you can use Cucumber with pure Java! That''s right, you don''t have to write a single line of Ruby! (1) All of your step definitions can be written as annotated methods in POJOs (Plain Old Java Objects). To get a taste of what this looks like, check out the simple example in the cucumber_java project on GitHub: * README for

Hi there I just started my first Merb app and I''m running into some weird things in Specs. When I do: describe "create action" do it "should create a new project" do project_params = {:name => ''bekkunin''} Project.should_receive(:create).with(project_params) controller, action = post(''/projects'', :project

Is anyone here using Rspec and Ruby to test software written in other languages? I''m about to start an R language project, and may also be doing some work in another language (I''m not sure which one yet, but it''s one of the ones that''s part of the Axiom symbolic math package). I''d dearly love a test framework that can handle all three languages,

Hi, Is there a hook or a method to execute some code after a whole feature has run or will I need to embed that in a ''Then''? Regards Aidy

It seems that some examples at http://rspec.info are broken with invalid html. For example: http://rspec.info/documentation/before_and_after.html All those spans there should not be visible, I think :) Isn''t rspec.info web tested well enough? :P Best regards, Jarmo

This is related to Selenium/Watir usage along side webrat in story testing. MHS_Testing and Rspec-ui provide some great help for testing through frameworks like Selenium/Watir. But there is something missing, Webrat has changed the landscape somewhat with Acceptance Tests/Story Driven development. Now I have a choice: 1. Tests and rails process run as one test process (Webrat) 2. Use

Yesterday I added some Watir examples to RSpec''s svn. Today I added some Selenium (actually - Selenium Remote Control) examples. It''s dead easy to use both, and the Ruby code you end up writing is actually quite similar. Here''s a taste: == Watir == require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/rspec_watir'' context "Google''s search page" do

I added cucumber to my rails project using the following commands: git submodule add git://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber.git \ vendor/plugins/cucumber ruby script/generate cucumber git submodule add git://github.com/brynary/webrat.git \ vendor/plugins/webrat git submodule add git://github.com/dchelimsky/rspec.git \ vendor/plugins/rspec git submodule add

While looking into spec_ui, I decided to run the examples. The watir example works a little, but always chokes on the ''better than fudge'' spec (failure output below). Also, is there any command to pause the "browser"? If my connection slows, the test gets out of whack. The selenium example fails right away (output below). I do have the 0.9.0 selenium-rc

Hello. I''m using RSpec with Watir to do some automated tests on IE. I''ve ran into problem, where I want to make a screenshot of a browser window when example fails. For that I made custom formatter where in extra_failure_content i''m invoking screenshot taking methods. Now, everything works like a charm, as long as I''m not using after :each. I remember that I

Behind every great release is a maintenance release. Go get it while it''s hot. We''ve also reworked the website a little - trying to scare off fewer people. Aslak
