puppetlabs_spec_helper is a Rubygem to make writing and running module spec tests using rspec-puppet easier. It includes a set of common rake tasks and a spec_helper that correctly initializes puppet and rspec-puppet for testing.

Hi, I was playing with rspec and every time I find a possible improvement that could be made in spec_helper or rakefile I have to change it in every module that is using rspec tests. So maybe these things could be centralized, I thought to myself. I found the following module, actually. https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-module_spec_helper But I am at a lost how to use it. Is it supposed

Hi all, There is something amiss with what I am doing.

Hello all, I have created this module: https://github.com/Spantree/puppet-thrift and everything worked fine all specs ran fine. Now I using the puppetlabs/apt module and when I run the 'rake spec' it is trying to run the 'apt' tests, and it is failing (I think) because I am not providing the appropriate facts. Is there a way to ignore the rspecs inside the

I have a bunch of fixtures designed to populate the database for my Cucumber integration tests. But at this stage I want my database to be empty when using Rspec. So, I moved the fixtures from `/spec/fixtures` to `features/support/fixtures`, and updated `features/support/env.rb` to read: Fixtures.reset_cache fixtures_folder = File.join(RAILS_ROOT, ''features'',

Hi all, I have just started using Rspec in rails and trying to test the following models: >>node.rb class Node < ActiveRecord::Base acts_as_tree end >>project.rb class Project < Node end >>task.rb class Task < Project end >>milestone.rb class Milestone < Node end Fixtures for table nodes is set global in spec_helper.rb, with the types set manually in the

I am taking over a code base and am trying to run the tests. I am somewhat new to RSpec so this might be a trivial problem. Basically I can tell that the fixtures are not getting loaded. All 100 tests fail with a similar error. But I don''t know why. Below is the code, with my narrative with *** before it... Can you see anything or give me a clue where to look. So far I am coming up

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

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:

I''m trying to make puppetlabs_spec_helper runs on Windows 7 to test my Puppet modules. Is this supported ? Because I encountered some problems: 1. symlinks were not created on Windows 7 (even if the functionnality are availabe). To manage that I added to rake_tasks.rb an ugly function: def make_link(source,target) ruby_platform =

Hi, Anyone know how to run rspec on 1.2.3? It fails out of the box.... I newly downloaded rspec, rspec_on_rails and ran the command ruby script/generate rspec ==>>> Does this script work right? from the instructions http://rspec.info/documentation/rails/install.html I then created the directories in spec: controllers, fixtures, helpers, models, views I then created the

Hello, everyone. I''ve been lurking here for a while, but this is my first post. I think I''ve run into a RSpec bug in a Rails project I''m working on. I was working on a few REST controllers, and started getting failures on a specific spec that verified whether a certain action returned XML output. I spent quite a lot of time checking my code to see if it was something I

I''m trying to get rspec-puppet working and have run into a problem. I have a VM running ubuntu lucid, have installed rubygems 1.3.5 from the apt package and have install rspec-puppet (and other required gems), and rake, using gem install. I''ve run rspec-puppet-init in the module I want to test, and have created a very basic spec file for one of the classes in my module.

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! I would really like to find a way to allow me to write RSpec specifications for code that use database transactions. I know I can set config.use_transactional_fixtures = false in my spec_helper.rb. That works, and that''s great, but it will (I think) slow down my specs quite a bit. I would like to turn off transactional fixtures for just a single spec (describe), or even

Hi, I''ve been trying to find an answer for this problem in the last couple hours, but I think no discussion was about this exact same thing. So here it goes, hope someone can help. I''m trying to spec a view which works correctly on the browser, but that generates the following error when I run "rake spec:views". ActionView::TemplateError in ''/survey/show
