Has anyone noticed any problems with the Rails story runner returning a response code of "0" when doing get/post/etc methods? I just grabbed the latest rails/rspec and just started noticing this problem, http://pastie.caboo.se/117497 Regular controller specs pass as expected. -- Josh Knowles phone: 509-979-1593 email: joshknowles at gmail.com web: http://joshknowles.com

Hi: This command: svn co svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/REL_0_9_0/rspec_on_rails/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rail Gives me this output: svn: URL ''svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/REL_0_9_0/rspec_on_rails/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails'' doesn''t exist If I go the ''script/plugin install'' route, I get "Export complete."

Fyi, I made the following renames: * RailsExample -> RailsExampleGroup * FunctionalExample -> FunctionalExampleGroup * ControllerExample -> ControllerExampleGroup * ViewExample -> ViewExampleGroup * HelperExample -> HelperExampleGroup * ModelExample -> ModelExampleGroup This was done to keep the naming consistent with ExampleGroup.

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

Is anyone using rspec with autotest? Scott

Hey, we''re currently using shoulda (http://dev.thoughtbot.com/ shoulda/) on a project and I saw some things that would be really nice to see in rspec, namely the should_ methods, and especially the should_be_restful method. Do these go against the rspec goals at all? Or could an ambitious programmer go to town implementing these for rspec_on_rails? Nathan Sutton fowlduck at

Hi, I''m new to rspec. I have some fixtures in /spec/fixtures. If they were in /test/fixtures they could be loaded with rake db:fixtures:load. Is there any way other than a symlink to load my rspec fixtures into the database with rake? Or, can I cause rspec to load the fixtures from /test/fixtures? Thanks, Paul

This is pretty much the same as last time around, if you recall. Thanks to Wilson for converting to the new form. I''ve added a few lines. Basically, it iterates over your model associations and does two things. - First, just try to call the association. Usually fixes speeling erors or other such silliness. - Second, try to find a record with an :include on the association. This

All, Sorry for spamming this list about this but I think everyone who could help me with this problem is on this list... If there is a better place to post this question let me know. Anyways, I am trying to use rspec_on_rails_matchers in my rails app to improve my view specs but I can''t get them to work. The helpers for the form tags never seem to be called. I created a new Rails

As anyone deployed on Textdrive using Apache + Mongrel? If so did you just install the GEM locally? I have filed a support request with Textdrive querying when we will see the Mongrel GEMs installed but have received no response yet... Thanks!

I''ve been unserializing XML in PHP with the XML_Serializer class, and I''m wondering if anyone knows of such a class for Ruby. Nothing fancy, just perhaps a simple way of converting arbitrary XML to a Ruby object. Maybe this has been implemented somewhere already? Thanks, Raymond

Hi, I''m trying to setup a mock for my controller test but I can''t get it to recognise the mock. I use it "should find all users" do User.should_receive(:find).with( :all, :limit => 10 ).and_return([@user]) do_get end and in the controller @users = User.find(:all, :limit => 10 ) But this does not work. It gives me User expected :find with (:all)

I recently submitted ticket #9240 (1) adding Oracle support for the rake db:reset task. I don''t consider myself an Oracle expert by any means, and would appreciate if someone familiar with the database can take a look and verify that I''m going in the right direction. Thanks. 1. http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/9240 -- Josh Knowles joshknowles@gmail.com

In the package lasso2, there is a Prostate Data. To find coefficients in the prostate cancer example we could impose L1 constraint on the parameters. code is: data(Prostate) p.mean <- apply(Prostate, 5,mean) pros <- sweep(Prostate, 5, p.mean, "-") p.std <- apply(pros, 5, var) pros <- sweep(pros, 5, sqrt(p.std),"/") pros[, "lpsa"] <-

Seeing as how the new Basecamp API reflects a similar use of RoR that I have been working on I''m curious as to what we can expect to be extracted from there in 0.13? Was the API written as an ActionWebService or just as a set of controllers? Any generic AR xml parsing/output methods that we may see in 0.13? Any reason you decided to do everything with HTTP Get instead of utilizing

i have a client that wants a function that will automatically logout an agent from a queue if they do not answer a call. This would prevent future calls from being sent to that phone if the agent forgot to logout. Any ideas?

Just a thought, it would be interesting to track and graph the number of examples (and number implemented) on a daily basis as a way of tracking a project progress.

Hi, I have a spec it "should have a unique username " I have a code: validates_uniqueness_of :user_name Now, I don''t know how to test this code. In order to test this, do I need to run `save`? For example, @user = User.create(:username => "mike") @another = User.create(:username => "mike") @another.save.should be_false This messes up test
