similar to: Corrupt rspec_on_rails tar file?

When I untar 1.0.8 after having downloaded it from rubyforge, I get these errors: <snip> rspec-1.0.8/spec/spec/runner/spec_parser_spec.rb rspec-1.0.8/spec/spec/spec_classes.rb gzip: stdin: decompression OK, trailing garbage ignored rspec-1.0.8/spec/spec/translator_spec.rb rspec-1.0.8/spec/spec_helper.rb rspec-1.0.8/UPGRADE tar: Child returned status 2 tar: Error exit delayed from

Recently as a result of using Git I''ve noticed a number of inconsistencies in the RSpec codebase with respect to whitespace (mixed line endings, mixed use of spaces and tabs for indentation, and trailing whitespace at the end of lines). I never would have noticed, but Git produces nice colorized diff output which highlights these kinds of inconsistencies. I wanted to ask if the

[Rails plugin 1.0.5] Hi, I am looking for some guidance. When working on a partial which looks like this <div class="bug" style="width: 100%;" /> I have some examples which should fail - I think - but do not: it '' should fail'' do response.should have_tag( ''div.bug'', :content => ''There is no

Hi I have this simple view (used by the Gap controller): <h1>Gap#index</h1> <%= link_to "Get a GAP quote", :action => "get_quote" %> And this spec: context "A rendered gap/index" do setup do render ''gap/index'' end specify "should have a link to the get_quote page" do

Hi there, I''ve installed rspec, rails plugin & generators thusly: $ sudo gem install rspec $ sudo gem install rspec_generator $ sudo gem install zentest -v 3.4.1 $ ./script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/REL_0_7_2/vendor/rspec_on_rails/vendor/plugins/rspec $ ./script/generate rspec $ ./script/generate rspec_model ModelName With Rails version: $ rails

In my rspec_on_rails controlle rspec, I have this: require File.dirname(__FILE__) + ''/../spec_helper'' describe FooController, "with a foo" do it "should be false" do get ''index'' assigns[:foo].should be_false end end In my controller I have this: class FooController < ApplicationController def index @foo = FALSE end

Hi Aslak, Thanks for the help. That bug is fixed in trunk. Here''s my path to recovery ... $ svn co svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/trunk ~/tmp/rspec $ cd ~/tmp/rspec $ rake gem $ sudo gem install pkg/rspec-0.7.3.gem $ ./script/plugin install --force svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/trunk/vendor/rspec_on_rails/vendor/plugins/rspec $ ./script/generate rspec (required to regenerate

Hey, I''m using rspec and rspec_on_rails to test some RSS feed views, the problem is that the specs spew out messy warnings when they run: ignoring attempt to close channel with link opened at byte 61, line 3 closed at byte 141, line 5 attributes at open: {} text around open: "ss version=\"2.0\">\n <channel>\n <title" text around close:

I figured most of it out. The Spec::Rails stuff was something in the code which has been fixed by revision 3099. The test methods partially make sense. Since the test/unit code has been integrated, methods with test in them are automatically turned into specs. However, the test? method is in a lib file that isn''t directly loaded into the specs. It is a convenience method: def

Hi all rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails.rb starts: ------ dir = File.dirname(__FILE__) require ''application'' silence_warnings { RAILS_ENV = "test" } ------ That force into "test" environment is causing me trouble and I''ve commented it out. Why? I''m testing a plugin, and have a sort of mini rails app that I use for the specs. The

I ran into something really puzzling today. I don''t know exactly why it''s happening, but I thought I''d share my experiences. I started a dummy app just to test an idea outside of the context of my real work today. So, I quickly get things started: * rails junk * cd junk * ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/ CURRENT/rspec * ruby

hi all I''m still a little uncertain on how to use mocks/stubs with rspec when dealing with associations. I know the point is to isolate the code being tested and remove external dependencies, but I''m not sure how to implement it. Can someone suggest how they would spec the code below: I have a Book model and Review model class Book < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :reviews

After a couple of quick fixes this morning, rspec_on_rails (in trunk as of rev 3070) now works correctly with Rails 2.0.1 Now that Rails 2.0 is out, we''ll try to get an RSpec 1.1 release candidate out the door in the next few days. Cheers, David

Hello rspec-users, I''ve encountered a strange bug in rspec, but it may be me who is wrong. I''m running latest version from the trunk (r1678) of both rspec and rspec_on_rails. Please consider the following model: class Url < ActiveRecord::Base def after_save Contact.create!(:primary_email => ''user at example.com'') raise

In rspec_on_rails, the spec:doc task uses --dry-run, which doesn''t jive well with rspec''s ability to write docs for you. For example, I use the rspec_expectation_matchers plugin from spicycode.com (scanned for a name, didn''t find one =), and end up writing specs like: it { @ticket.should validate_presence_of(:name) } Which results in specdocs such as: Ticket

When I first learned about the View specs I was very excited. I still am. However, I haven''t found them useful yet for one reason. They throw the following exception when ever a view renders another view, which is very common. ActionView::TemplateError in ''Event View message'' No rhtml, rxml, rjs or delegate template found for spec/rails/ view_spec/_info

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 all, What would be the best/easiest way of installing rspec as a system wide generator so I''m not having to download it or ./script/plugin install it every time?
