I''m in the process of updating an app for Rails 3.0 and rspec-rails 2.0.0.beta20. When I''m running my specs (rake spec) I get a large number of errors caused by two undefined methods undefined method `has_selector?'' for #<String:0x7fdbd0b5b270> undefined method `flunk'' for

Hey guys, I''d never used RSpec Stories before, so I decided to follow the apparent direction of the wind and just jump right into cucumber. I''m dabbling with/using Cucumber and really like it. Good job, aslak! Where i''m struggling right now is using either fixtures or a model factory methodology like the FixtureReplacement. In both cases, I''m not

On http://github.com/rspec/rspec-rails under "View specs" there''s an example describe "events/index.html.erb" do it "renders _event partial for each event" do assign(:events, [stub_model(Event), stub_model(Event)]) render view.should render_template(:partial => "_event", :count => 2) end end Is this indeed correct? From the

Is anyone out there writing specs to check attr_accessible fields? I had originally written my spec to check for allowing the desired fields, and then none of the other regular db fields. Unfortunately this isn''t satisfactory, because attr_protected could have been used instead, which of course wouldn''t prevent mass assignment to any whatever=(val) method. I''m thinking

Has anybody had any luck getting Cucumber, Webrat and Selenium to play nicely together for SSL sites? My test environment: - nginx front-end accepting SSL requests, proxying them to mongrel back-end - mongrel back-end accepting normal HTTP requests - application routes configured with ":protocol => ''https''" so that URLs generated with "_url"

Hey guys, We developed this plugin while writing my first real set of RSpec stories. It''s still missing a lot of functionality, but it''s useful to us as is, so I''m shipping 0.1.0. (Patches welcome. :) ) Code is available at: http://svn.eastmedia.net/public/plugins/webrat/ What do you think? -Bryan Here''s the README:

Hi there I have a weird situation. I have inherited a project in Rails 1.2.3 that has been upgraded to Rails 2.3.14 (and is running). I have installed Cucumber and Rspec to start to write features/tests for the new code that needs to be written. In my Gemfile, these Gems are loaded: group :test do gem ''rspec-rails'', ''~> 1.3.4'', :require =>

In a Rails controller I set the scope on a model class in an around filter. I have defined expectations on the model classes, and ideally, I would add a further expectation for the scope. Is this already possible in some way? How would I go about adding support a scope expectation? Michael -- Michael Schuerig mailto:michael at schuerig.de http://www.schuerig.de/michael/

i get the above error when running rake. I tried switching rails 2.3.3 with 2.3.2 but it didn''t help. here are my gems: actionmailer (2.3.2) actionpack (2.3.2) activerecord (2.3.2) activeresource (2.3.2) activesupport (2.3.2) builder (2.1.2) cucumber (0.3.98) diff-lcs (1.1.2) hoe (2.3.3) nokogiri (1.3.3) polyglot (0.2.8) rack (1.0.0) rails (2.3.2) rake (0.8.7) rspec (1.2.8) rspec-rails

Just trying to get cucumber/webrat going and so after following the installation process here http://wiki.github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/ruby-on-rails i wrote a quick feature and when I rake features, I get the following in the console: c:/InstantRails-2.0-win/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.1.2/lib/acti ve_support/dependencies.rb:262:in `load_missing_constant'': Expected

Hello again :) I''m trying to run rcov on my specs here but i''m getting a lot of segmentation faults (and they usually happen at different places): /home/mauricio/NetBeansProjects/reeds/vendor/rails/activerecord/lib/active_record/attribute_methods.rb:211: [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 1.8.6 (2007-09-24) [i486-linux]

This is sort of a pre-announcement for a Rails plugin my friend Adam Williams and I are working on. We''re in the process of extracting it from a project we are working on so that it can be generally useful to the Rails community. We are calling it "Scenarios". It is a drop in replacement for Rails fixtures: http://faithfulcode.rubyforge.org/svn/plugins/trunk/scenarios/README

Hi All Need some brilliants minds here :) I''m using Rails 2.3.8 & ruby 1.8 (I know, I know... ) I''ve move my gems from .gems to Bundler, but I''m having some issues with Factory_girl when I rake spec "uninitialized constant Factory" I''m following the instructions from http://gembundler.com/rails23.html. Basically: - grab all config.gem and place

Has anyone had any luck using the CalendarHelper plugin at http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/CalendarHelper recently? I''m scratching my head over the following error when I look at any page in my application: NameError in CalendarController#index undefined local variable or method `date_format'' for #<CalendarController:0x24ccd4c> RAILS_ROOT:

One of my controllers directly renders some JSON output that I would like to test with RSpec. For that I use ''response.should have_text("foobar")'' in my spec file, but that leads to a Failure/Error: response.should have_text("enim") undefined method `has_text?'' for #<ActionController::TestResponse: 0xb6736944> I read here somewhere that webrat

My main layout includes separate content_for/yield sections for my header, sidebar, footer, and content. However, when running a view spec, the `rendered` variable seems to only contain a string of just the primary content and ignores the header/footer/sidebar as well as the rest of my layout file (the "render" call just returns my primary content wrapped in generic <html> and

I admit it, when it comes to rSpec, I''m lazy. I''ve made a few feeble attempts to use it, but for once I''m waiting for a book-length treatment. At least two books were announced, I think. Can anyone in the know please report on their progress? Thanks Michael -- Michael Schuerig mailto:michael at schuerig.de http://www.schuerig.de/michael/

The validation reflection plugin adds three things (1) Reflective access to validations - ModelClass.reflect_on_all_validations - ModelClass.reflect_on_validations_for(:property) (2) It provides "declarative" methods for defining validations based on database metadata - validates_presence_of_mandatory_content_columns - validates_lengths_of_string_attributes -

Recently, I''ve started to write unit tests for some of my scripts. In general,it''s no worse in JavaScript than in Ruby or Java. I didn''t have the courage to try Selenium, but had a look at JsUnit. Unfortunately, in Konqueror it produces unfathomable errors and in Firefox it is slow beyond imagination. Anyway, writing tests for functions that are computational or

Why would, in an upgrade from 3.0.1 to 3.0.3, a rake db:migrate run this: SELECT "schema_migrations"."version" FROM "schema_migrations" vs this ? SELECT `schema_migrations`.`version` FROM `schema_migrations` __ rake db:migrate output __ rake aborted!
