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

I am following the instructions on how to use RESTful Rails plugin found at http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2006/04/19/rest-on-rails.html?page=3.

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

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:

I am using latest version for rspec-rails, ZenTest. I am getting following error, when ever I try to run autotest. Please help -head at mhart6/gems/ZenTest-4.6.2/lib/autotest.rb:315:in `load'': /Users/ jayparteek/.autotest:7: invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII) (SyntaxError)

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

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.

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

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!

I have been frustrated with J2EE technology just like any other developer who has worked in that technology for a long time. This made me learn about Rails and I was excited about RoR. Today I came across JBoss Seam framework and I am not able to contain my excitement. My passion for JEE development is back. It seems like it is better than RoR. I would like to hear differnt opinions about this

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 evaluating the Yahoo Browser Based Authentication Rails plugin for use in my web app. It looks like a good idea to make the signup process easier by using this plugin. I see the following advantages for using it: 1. Less code ;-) 2. I don''t have to struggle with Acts As Authenticated or RESTful Authentication plugins to get this functionality. 3. I can safely assume most of my
