Hi, Just installed 0.9.4 (from 0.8 series) and ran the spec translator. It messed up specs that had the should include() where the argument to include is a string (using no parens for the arg) IOW, given: context "OldSchool" do class OldSchool attr_accessor collection def initialize @collection = [] end def add_new(item)

Hi, by switching to MySQL from SQLite, it fixed the problem. I ran rdebug on it and it is trying to call I ActiveRecord::Base.connection.begin_db_transaction. from ActiveRecordSafetyListener.scenario_started. I don''t think SQLLite likes transactions.

MasterView is a rails-optimized (x)html friendly template engine plugin that provides another option to the existing rails view templates (rhtml and rxml). The main idea is to provide a template engine that would provide all the power of layouts, partials, and rails helpers but still be editable/styleable in a WYSIWYG editor. It was also a major goal that the syntax of these attribute directives

Hi - I have 3 fileds a user can fill out. They can fill out 2 of them or just one of them, for example. fill out these 2 fields: Field1 and Field2 Or fill out this field: Field3 In my model how do I use validates_presence_of for Field1 and Field2 or just Field3. I want to do something like this: validates_presence_of Field1, Field2 OR validates_presence_of Field3 So the user can fill out

I''m interested in tracking edge development of the RSpec on Rails plugin and I''m a bit confused. The installation guide (http://rspec.rubyforge.org/documentation/rails/install.html) says, "You''ll have to install the RSpec core gem first." It also says, "Take note of what rspec version you''re installing ? it''s very important that you

Hi, I''ve been following this thread and I can get the example stories to run with the ruby command. But I''ve been unable to get the example from http://blog.davidchelimsky.net/articles/2007/10/25/plain-text-stories-part-iii to run with all.rb ruby stories/all.rb /home/edh/story/stories/additions/steps/addition_steps.rb:2: undefined method `steps_for'' for main:Object

HI, After I upgraded to RSpec 1.1.4 (from git), my stories all failed. I was using Webrat and the first thing I noticed was the ''visits'' method was gone. I then backtracked to just using ''get'' and got the same undefined method exception. I confirmed it was still working in 1.1.3 Eventually, I got it to work doing this: in my first Given: @app =

Hi, I''ve been reading with interest the threads trying to integrate Mocha and Stubba with RSpec. So far, I''ve made the two changes in spec_helper.rb suggested, but discovered another one that neither of the archives mentions: If you use traditional mocking: object = mock or the stub shortcut : object = stub(:method => :result), you run into namespace conflicts with

This updates Ruby to 1.8.6 patch level 111 (lots of bug fixes since 1.8.6 was released). It also updates most of the included extensions to their latest versions (see the change log). The final release won''t happen until after RubyGems 0.9.5 is released (which should be any day now) because we want the latest RubyGems version to be included. However, we''re putting out this

Hi, After I upgraded RSpec from 0.7.4 to 0.7.5, first the gem, then the Rails plugin, I noticed that when I ran my spec/models, the fixtures were overwriting the data in the development environment DB, not the test one. The test environment was being used prior to the upgrade. I am using SQLite3 and an in-memory db for the test environment. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Ed -- Ed

Hi I hope this is not OT. I''m training my replacement at work to do BDD Rails development. He''s done a CS/maths degree but has no professional programming experience, so he''s never NOT done a project without BDD. In a way I am jealous of his unspoilt situation :) I''ve gone about things this way: * first teach him some Ruby (he did mainly Java at

Hi, I''m using piston to manage rspec and rspec_on_rails in vendor/plugins. ---- ~/work/simplify_md $ piston st vendor/plugins/ vendor/plugins/rspec (svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/CURRENT/rspec) vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails (svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/CURRENT/rspec_on_rails) ---- After I ''piston update''d rspec and

I''m trying to stub(!) the Kernel.` (backquote) method and I''m having confusing (to me) results. Here''s the method I''m spec''ing: class Barcode ... def raw_barcodes self.make_temporary_copy `OcrBarcode #{self.temp_file_path}` end ... end And this is my (newbish) attempt at the spec: describe "Calling @barcode.raw_barcodes" do

Howdy, Why does the bundle NOT work when I do the following: - Start TextMate - Open my project - Open my spec - Try to run spec and get an error While the following DOES work: - Open Terminal - Locate my project - Start TextMate via command line (mate .) - Open my spec - Try to run spec and it works Cheers, Mel -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was

As I think I previously mentioned, there is an incompatibility with rails 1.2.1 and sqlite3 3.3.8. see: http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2007/1/29/using-sqlite3-with-rails and: http://weblog.rubyonrails.org/2007/2/6/rails-1-2-2-sqlite3-gems- singular-resources Sqlite is now at 3.3.13. Because of this, if a developer is trying to create a patch for rspec_on_rails, he will have one of the

Hi everyone. I can''t get the above(subject line) combination to work. If I use a standard sqlite3 file db for the test db, and spec_server all the specs on my models pass. If I use an in-memory db for the test db, script/spec w/o spec_server, they all pass. But if I use in-memory and spec_server I get the following error: 1) ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in ''User should be

Hi folks, I''m in the process of converting a Test::Unit functional test to RSpec, but I''ve run into a slight problem. I tried looking through the documentation but I still don''t know what I missed. Thanks in advance, Blake describe VenuesController, "on update" do before(:each) do @venue = mock("venue")

I''m using the date_select and datetime_select helpers in my view, and they return Date classes from the params hash. But how do I work with Date classes, they don''t print human readable dates or times, Time classes work well I can use strftime("%H:%M") to print to the screen. Is it possible to convert a Date to a Time, Ive been tinkering in irb but have got

Probably dead obvious, but are there any assertions for easing testing of xml output, both for builder templates (for RSS feed -- something like a version of assert_tag) and for the new restful stuff. Couldn''t find anything relevant in the API. Cheers Chris

I''ve spent all day digging through the rails api and postgres-pr on this, I think it''s time to ask the list. Postgres stores a Date in YYYY-MM-DD format. My users want the dates in MM/DD/YYYY format. Sure, I could explicitly convert it on the app level every place where a date is displayed, but that seemed like a DRY violation. I thought I''d be clever and simply
