similar to: autotest problem, can you possibly help me ?

I am getting this horribly ugly output from autotest when a test fails. Normal output from ''rake test'': -- 1) Failure: test_export_format(TaskTest) [./test/unit/task_test.rb:61]: <"Michael Alvarez"> expected but was <nil>. -- Same failure, as seen via autotest: -- 1) Failure: test_export_format(TaskTest) [./test/unit/task_test.rb:61]: ---

Hi, First, thanks for the plugin. Sorry if this is not strictly a backgroundrb issue but I thought others on this list might have come across this problem. I''m trying to run the test that comes via the worker generator. The test works fine when running ''rake test_functional'', but when the tests are run by autotest I get "uninitialized constant BackgrounDRb"

Hello all, I''m new to rSpec but after reading a couple of tutorials I''ve become enamored. Anyway, I am at minute 42 of the rSpec basics screencast ( peepcode.com) and I''m having the following error running autotest w/rSpec: D:\ruby\projects\forecaster>autotest loading autotest/rails_rspec c:\ruby\bin\ruby -rrubygems -e "require ''redgreen''"

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

When I try to run autotest (zenspider) (which looks VERY cool), I get this error: (run from within a Rails app directory) C:\ruby_home\analysis>autotest -rails # Testing updated files + c:/ruby/bin/ruby -Ilib:test -e ''["test/unit/user_test.rb", "test/unit/role_test.rb"].each { |f| load f }'' | unit_diff -u ''c:'' is not recognized

Hi, When I start the "autotest" it gives me the following error...not sure what HOME path I have to set...all Ruby/Rails related components are in path! --- C:\>autotest -rails C:/Tools/InstantRails/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ZenTest-3.3.0/lib/autotest.rb:285:in `expand_path'': couldn''t find HOME environment -- expanding `~/.autotest'' (ArgumentError) ---

I have been using autotest/zentest 3.5.0 with my rails 2.0.2 and rspec. I upgraded my gems and got 3.9.3 and had a problem. I went back to 3.5.0 and it worked. I stayed there until moving to rails 2.1. I again updated my gems and got 3.10. This one had the same problem. This time I need to figure out what is wrong. Here is what I get:

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

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)

Heya guys & gals, I have to do some development on a Windows box, hitting a stupid problem, wondering if anyone on the list knows how to solve it. I had RSpec 1.1.1 and ZenTest 3.6.1 - this was working fine with autotest (though no colour output). I updated to rspec 1.1.2 and zentest 3.8.0 and now autotest hangs, it seems, on initializing the environment. The list of the tests come up, and

Hi, I''ve been using the rspec and rspec_on_rails plugins quite happily on my Rails project for a while now. Today I noticed the autotest support in RSpec-1.0.3 and decided to give that a spin. Oh tragedy! $ autotest loading autotest/rails_rspec ./vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/autotest/rails_rspec.rb:33:in `initialize'': undefined method `singularize''

I have had this problem for a while. autotest has never worked properly for me. I have tried different versions of rspec with different versions of ZenTest. I have tried it with .autotest files and without. When I run autotest from my rails app root, it says: loading autotest/rails_rspec and then it just sits there. If I look at the output from autotest -v, it is traversing the tree and it

I''m having trouble getting autotest to run "out of the box" with rspec. I''ve got a Leopard setup with Zentest 3.5.0, rspec on trunk, and rails 2.0PR. No ".autotest" file. There are a couple of issues: 1. Running ''autotest'' inititally yields a command not found for "spec --diff unified etc etc". This seems to be an old issue but

This applies to anyone using rspec''s trunk from >= 3220 with ZenTest <= 3.7.2. Anyone else, feel free to move on.... The next release of ZenTest, coming soon, includes some changes that improve the relationship between Autotest, it''s subclasses (like those in rspec) and .autotest, the file that you can use to plug into autotest''s hooks to extend/modify

Before I chalk this up as a bug and report it, I just want to make sure I''m not doing something silly. Running ZenTest''s autotest on OS 10.4.10 with RSpec 1.0.8, drb, produces the following failed test: ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch in ''User should create an avatar with uploaded_data'' Avatar expected, got Avatar This only happens with that exact

Hi Are there any tools around that make rspec''s failure messages easier to read? unit_diff from ZenTest doesn''t seem to work - unless I missed something. A simple but very helpful improvement would be to use more line- breaks, e.g. Current output: expected "this is a very long string blah blah", got "this is a very very long string blah blah" (using
