similar to: Everyone Using Rspec Autotest?

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) ---

hi list - should it be possible to use autotest to continuously run specs for a non-rails project? when i execute autotest in the base directory of my project, it complains that it cannot load rspec_autotest, however looking at rspec_autotest[1] and rspec_rails_autotest.rb, it appears as though both are geared towards rails (perhaps even rspec on rails). cheers, jean-pierre [1]

Is anyone using rspec with autotest? Scott

Has anyone else encountered this problem? What I mean is, rspec_autotest runs all specs, then waits. When you change a spec, it reruns that spec. However, if that spec now passes, it should run the whole suite again, so you can see the next one to work on. It no longer does this. This renders it somewhat useless. Does anyone have autotest working with rspec 0.7.5, or does anyone have any

Hi, Is it possible to run both autotest and rspec_autotest at the same time while I convert my tests over to specs? autotest seems to either want to run one or the other. Also, rspec_autotest doesn''t seem to red/green the error/successes. It should, right? Thanks, Joe

When I work with a .html.erb file, the autotest rspec on rails stuff doesn''t understand the file to map it to the right test. I wanted to submit a patch for this, but I''m unsure where the specs would be to update. I found the necessary mapping in rspec_autotest.rb, but I can''t find any specs anywhere. Help? I just need to have /app/views/coupon/index.html.erb to map to

Is the rspec_autotest plugin mentioned here, http://blog.nicksieger.com/articles/2006/11/15/rspec-autotest-now-a-rails-plugin the accepted method of auto testing specs? It''s an old article, and after grabbing the plugin, and giving it a run, it fails with: $ rake spec:autotest:rails trunk/vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails/lib/spec/rails/dsl/behaviour/rails_example.rb:31: undefined method

If I got this to work, do you think we could/should check in rspec_autotest into rspec? I''ve updated rspec_autotest abit, so let me know if you''d like the modified code. Scott

I installed 0.7.5 and the corresponding Rails plugin. Now it seems that the rake command is: rake spec:autotest I immediately ran into several problems: 1. rspec_autotest.rb line 30 has curly quotes and makes Ruby choke 2. Same line, rails_spec is spelled solid, when it should have the underscore But fixing these didn''t get me back going. Now I have to have a rails_spec_server

How can I spec out a rake task? How can I use rake in my spec''s? I want to fix this rake spec:autotest bug with --drb and --color. How can I get rake output? How would I get out of autotest? My initial thought is just to run the command in the spec. Scott

In case anyone else is trying to make this work, here is what I did (Before 0.7.4 I had patched the regex in zentest redgreen, but that is not used any more) To use directly, it is very simple. In rspec_autotest/lib/ rspec_autotest.rb, add a -c to the spec_command in the initializer function: @spec_command = "spec -c --diff unified" This won''t help however if you want

Is there something currently going on on the rspec trunk that causes a massive slowdown when running rake spec and autotest (without spec_server)? I updated to the latest trunk yesterday and the time needed to run the specs of my app jumped from ~20 seconds to more than a minute. The weird thing is that if I run the rake spec tasks separately (controllers, models, views, helpers), they

I''ve got rspec and zentest installed as well as the rspec rails plugin, and my model/controller specs all pass and work well. I can''t seem to get views to work though - 100% of the specs fail with: NoMethodError in ''/users/show.rhtml should render attributes in <p>'' protected method `render'' called for

Hello forum I have there to files #----- virtual_host_controller.rb class VirtualHostsController < ApplicationController before_filter :capture_domain # GET /domain/1/virtual_hosts/1 def show @virtual_host = @domain.virtual_hosts.find(params[:id]) respond_to do |format| format.html # show.rhtml end end private def capture_domain if

Hello, I''m confused why the spec described below is failing. Other simple comparison specs are passing fine for the same model. The code is working accordingly when I test it through the console, I''m just having difficulty getting this spec to work. Any pointers would be appreciated.

Just upgraded to latest rails and rspec builds and my autotest doesnt work undefined method `before'' for Spec::Rails::DSL::RailsExample:Class (NoMethodError) Here''s the full trace: http://pastie.caboo.se/112754 Any ideas? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

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

Hi, all, I''m trying to write a spec for a controller method that starts out: def download @orders = Order.find( params[:ids] ) ... and started writing a spec that set params[:ids] to a mock. I was surprised to discover that controller specs (at least in RSpec 1.0.8) don''t offer the use of the params object (per

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
