Hello, I just installed radrails and it will not run the webbrick because a version is already running on my mac. I do not know how to shut down the mac version. Thanks Regards, Frank Rocco farocco-H+0wwilmMs3R7s880joybQ@public.gmane.org

It seems to me that the RSpec bundle''s ''it'' snippet is in need of some love. By default, a newly inserted spec passes. This seems odd as it is misleading. It also makes it harder find what specs still need to be completed if you return to an RSpec module after a break. I propose that the ''it'' snippet is changed to the following: it

I''ve been working on a Rails project with one other developer; he was using Test::Unit, and I was using RSpec. That works OK for a while, but obviously it starts causing pain when you have to check in two places to see if a piece of code is properly tested/spec''d, you can''t use TextMate shortcuts to switch back and forth between code and test, you have to duplicate

I''ve just started getting so odd symptoms working with webrick. I use TextMate editing my rails apps over a CIFS mount on the server. Usually when I "edit/save/reload" a page I see the new changes. However I''ve started getting the same old data and now have to frequently restart the webrick server to get my changes to render. What is available to debug on this to

I want to be able to code my rails apps either on my Desktop mac or my Powerbook using textmate. I want to build a Debian server that runs lighttpd, rails and mysql. Would I use samba on the server and access the files that way through TextMate or is there something else that folks use? and should I use subversion and if so, how would I do that in the scanario I''m describing.

Hi All, I have the following arrangement: class PickAndPackRequest < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :transactions, :as => :request has_many :postings, :through => :transactions end class Transaction < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :request, :polymorphic => true has_many :postings end class Posting < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :transaction end But when I ask for

Hey all, I was just wondering if any one has played around with getting autotest''s rspec integration working with rspec''s HTML output. I really like how in the rspec textmate bundle the context of the failing code is inlined with the failing spec along with the exact line highlighted and a link to the exact spot in reference. However, I rarely use this nice output since

It seems like half the people on this list are writing a book on Ruby or Rails. For all the hints I''ve seen strewn across the list I have yet to see one that will focus on test-driven development for either Ruby or for Rails. If anyone is looking for a topic, please consider this. I''ve been trying to wrap my brain around the TDD process, but its way of thinking is

Features: * Management WEBrick - start, stop * Viewing log files * Abbrev from TextMate * Switching between View/Action http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/emacs/rails.el

Hi all, I am starting a new rails app with the Markaby plugin (had some issues installing, but think its working). First, i created an index.mab file for a controller containing: h1 "First template" That rendered fine. Also, I do not have a "def index ..." in the controller. Then I created an app/layouts/application.mab file. It didn''t get picked up until after

I''m still reading other people''s code and going over the books. As I was doing this a question sprang up in my mind. Is it wise for total newbies to attempt test driven development from the start? Basically, if you''re a newbie like me, chances are your tests might even be broken themselves. Or will attempting to write tests be good practice for actual coding as

I was wondering if there are any IDEs out there that has autocomplete features for win32. It would be perfect if it could do something akin to what DHH is doing on the screencast hosted on the rails website. http://media.rubyonrails.org/video/rails_take2_with_sound.mov Cheers -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Is tax a reserved word or am I sleep deprived?? I''m working on a shopping cart and have a table called sales_taxes (at first i named it taxes). I get the following error when i load the controller: uninitialized constant SalesTaxis RAILS_ROOT: script/../config/.. Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace

Total Ruby Noob here. Just in the throws of reading the books and choosing an isp for my server etc. If you are developing a "one-off" rails app with the intent of using it on an isp hosted server, would it normally work better to develop and debug the thing locally (like on a Mac for instance), and then go through a round of "move it to the server and retest everything there

Hi, I wonder what kind of interest there is on Test Driven Development (TDD) in R. Test Driven Development consists of writing the test before the function, and iteratively build the function until it passes the test. Python and Ruby (specially Ruby) have very strong test-oriented cultures. In fact, in Ruby at least the custom is to do TDD and lately Behavior-driven development (BDD). In BDD,

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 am trying to create the perfect development environment for rails and i dont know exactly which way to go. Do i create a windows environment or a *nix environment. If i go *nix, what distro is best suited for rails. I would be using mysql, so that would come in to play. If i go *nix, i would use apache. Any ideas for the right environment would be greatly appreciated. I guess the major choice is

Hi all, as part of adopting Rails in my company I had to go through the hassle of setting up a Rails production environment on Win32 system since we mostly use MS SQL as our database back end and also because we mostly dealing with customers who become green-blue-purple as soon as you mention Unix/Linux and run for the door. I also need to mention that most of our web applications are internal and

I''ve been working through the book ''Beginning Ruby on Rails E-Commerce'' which is very heavy on Test Driven Development. As in, you have to write tests for scaffolding methods and validations and crap like that. And then they fail. And you KNOW its the test not the method. So you spend 2x the time writing a test that has to be adapted when requirements change. You

I am new to web development, Ruby on Rails, and UML as well. I was wondering if there were any free tools available for UML design. There is a list of free tools on wikipedia under UML tools, but I don''t understand if I need a tool that supports the ruby language. If anyone uses a free UML tool for designing Ruby on Rails apps, please let me know what you use.
