Railsters: Despite Rails being the only Web platform designed for TDD, a lot of its test infrastructure is still "cargo cult" - imitating other test rigs instead of understanding their principles. Most importantly, tests should run instantly. There''s no excuse for breaking this rule, and if you invent a platform that can''t obey it then you are doing something

I have been using autotest/zentest 3.5.0 with my rails 2.0.2 and rspec. I upgraded my gems and got 3.9.3 and had a problem. I went back to 3.5.0 and it worked. I stayed there until moving to rails 2.1. I again updated my gems and got 3.10. This one had the same problem. This time I need to figure out what is wrong. Here is what I get:

As today seems to be "test day" on the list, I''d like to hear how people are using ZenText. I''m using autotest -rails and it''s made an incredible difference in my productivity. There is mention of using zentest to autogenerate missing test cases. I can''t seem to get this working. Any hints? Thanks, Steve -- View this message in context:

OK, supposedly it has Rdoc documentation but I couldn''t find it (not helped by the fact that I''ve never used offline rdocs so I don''t really know where to look). So, does anybody know how to use ZenTest effectively with Rails? I read all I could find on the web but nothing really illuminated for me. I''m trying to get into Test Driven Development (I have already

The latest release of Autotest, bundled in ZenTest 3.5, now has support for running specs! No longer do we need to use the rspec_autotest plugin, now it-just-works. The only problem is that the script is assuming you have the rspec gem installed. If you''re keeping up with Edge RSpec on your Rails project you''ve probably just included rspec and rspec_on_rails into your

Hi all, I tried testing with Rspec for first time, following a tutorial. "rspec spec/" works fine but when I try ''autotest'' it gives me the error message below. I also made a gist about it: https://gist.github.com/779265 It seems like a redgreen or ZenTest error. I''m using Ubuntu10, Rails3, Ruby 1.9 and RVM. Any help is appriciated, thanks in advance, gezope

Hey all, Just a heads up that the ZenTest-3.9.0 release is not compatible with RSpec-1.1.2. I thought I had a release ready to go, but differences between a preview release of ZenTest that I received and the actual release seem to have broken compatibility. We''ll get this resolved soon, but in the mean time please hold off on upgrading to ZenTest-3.9.0 if you''re using RSpec.

I would like to know which one is better. Zentest seems to lack good documentation whereas Selenium seems to be having good documentation.

Hi, I just updated to the latest RSpec 1.1.3 + ZenTest 3.9.1. I also have rspec 1.1.3 installed as a gem When starting autotest with -v option, there is a lot of noise because autotest does not ignore the vendor folder, the migrations, etc ...: Dunno! vendor/plugins/acts_as_solr/solr/lib/jetty-util-6.1.3.jar Dunno!

First I recognize that these questions might be straying a little from the scope of this mailing list, but I haven''t been able to find a more appropriate venue; if anyone can point me to a better venue, I''d be very appreciative.

Josh Knowles http://joshknowles.com/ just let me know that ZenTest Autotest 3.50 now handles your RSpec specs. http://blog.zenspider.com/archives/2007/04/zentest_version_350_has_been_released.html That''s a great news. Josh also shared with me a quick hack to make autotest work with only the RSpec plugin installed. Add the following into your ~/.autotest file

Heya guys & gals, I have to do some development on a Windows box, hitting a stupid problem, wondering if anyone on the list knows how to solve it. I had RSpec 1.1.1 and ZenTest 3.6.1 - this was working fine with autotest (though no colour output). I updated to rspec 1.1.2 and zentest 3.8.0 and now autotest hangs, it seems, on initializing the environment. The list of the tests come up, and
