Okay, I''m finally asking for help
Hi, all!
I would love if someone could help me figure this out. I can''t seem to see
why the following fails:
Here''s the spec:
it "should redirect back to the index page" do
Coupon.should_receive
(:new).with({"name"=>@expectedName,"amount"=>@expectedAmount}).and_return(@coupon)
@coupon.should_receive(:save)

Autotest''ing specs on non-rails app
I''m having trouble using autotest with rspec on a non-rails project.
my Rspec gem is version 1.0.8, ZenTest is 3.6.2
project structure
$ ls *
lib:
parser.rb
spec:
parser_spec.rb
autotest finds and runs the spec, but it won''t detect changes to lib/parser.rb
I know it''s something stupid, but...
help?

Which rspec for rails 2.1RC1?
I''m working on porting our app. Do I need to upgrade rspec from 1.1.3?
If so which version.
BTW the installation doc at
http://rspec.info/documentation/rails/install.html seems to be stuck
in the pre-git days.

attachment_fu and story runner, any updates
I''m trying to write a story for a Rails app which involves using the
attachment_fu plugin to upload images.
After blunting my pick on this for a while, google found me this:
http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/134743#600831
So it seems that there''s a hole in Rails integration testing and
multipart form posting. David offered to incorporate a patch to story
runner at the end of the

Composed Stories/Scenarios
In using stories, I find myself wanting to build scenarios on top of each other,
For example
I want something like
Scenario: The user logs on
Given a
And b
When c
And d
Then e
And f
Scenario: The user changes his password
Given the user logs on
And g
Then h
In other words, I''d like to write the second scenario starting with

Exception Notification plugin options hash handling????? backwards merge?
Today I worked on adding email exception notification to some
ancillary background processes for a Rails app.
Since I was already using Jamis'' exception notification plugin to
notify me of errors in controllers for the web app, I figured that the
path of least resistance was to try to figure out how to hook it into
the daemon code.
At first it looked easy. I just needed to

Branching scenarios, GivenScenario and database
I''m trying to use stories to drive some high-level design.
I''ve got some branching scenarios where I want to follow a scenario,
to establish a base situation, and then have different scenarios which
''branch'' out from that state, possibly several levels deep.
I asked a bit about this a few days ago, and David pointed out the
rather undocumented GivenScenario

Anyone using the rspec textmate bundle with Ruby 1.9.1
I''m now in the process of facing converting a rails app to use Ruby 1.9.1.
Has anyone figured out how to use 1.9 with the RSpec bundle in
textmate and preferably how to switch back and forth?

Any pioneers who've configured passenger to support some apps running in 1.8.x others in 1.9?
Passenger configuration selects which ruby executable to use via a
global configuration variable (at least for Apache, I assume it''s the
same for Nginx).
I''m in a situation where I''ve got at least one rails app I''d like to
run on 1.9 while others remain on 1.8. This is for my development
machine running OS X 10.6. Normally I just use the Passenger PrefPane,

"Tricks" for testing after_create callback???
I''ve got a model Message, which needs to send an email using action
mailer after it''s first saved in the database.
I want to pass the model to the mailer which then uses methods on the
message model to render the email.
So the natural way to do this is in an after_create callback on the
Message model.
But I can''t see an easy way to test this. Here''s my spec

Can I get RSpec NOT to abort rake on failing specs?
At work we''ve got a rather complex app with both specs and tests. Our
default rake task runs all our our tests and specs. We''ve also got separate
rake tasks to run groups of tests and specs in the various subdirectories.
The default task simply lists all the individual tasks as pre-reqs.
We do a lot of branching and merging, so we really want to run all of the
tests and specs

ActiveRecord, spec''ing find has right :order parameter
I''m wanting to write a spec that a model is applying an :order option
to a find call, but I don''t want to completely specify all of the find
parameters.
So I want to write something like this, say in a controller spec
User.should_receive(:find).with(:all, hash_with_at_least(:order =>
''user.name ASC''))
get ''index'', :sort =>

Specifing methods in a steps_for block

Story runner "macros"
I''ve gotten quite a bit out of Pat Maddox''s screencast

punch, but more festive) to announce RSpec-1.1.0.
Thanks to all who have contributed patches over the last few months.
Big thanks to Dan North and Brian Takita for their important work on

should_receive(:foo).with(any_object)
Hey,
I just ran into a situation where I would like to expect a method call
with an argument I know and another one, which is a random number. I
think mocking up the rand method is somehow ugly so I thought maybe
this is the first time where I can take something from Java to Ruby ;)
Java''s EasyMock mocking library knows things like "anyObject()" and
