Hello, how can I execute some code after each step of a story. Is there some kind of listener documentated. Thank you in advance, Armin

So I have a describe which is a subclass of RailsExampleGroup. I inserted some data into my database, and reconnect! my connection. Before reconnect, finding the data I just created is fine. The data cannot be found, after reconnection, the data is gone. It''s not in the database. It looks to me the data is not actually inserted into the DB at all, just somehow buffered somewhere. Would

I have been using Rspec stories with Webrat feeling very productive and happy. Then I needed to do something with Selenium (Webrat could have done what I needed but it does not yet have the functionality). Selenium-core as part of a rails plugin looked nice but did not seem to fit with rspec stories. So I went the Selenium-rc route. Since Selenium uses a separate instance of rails

Hey list, I''m refactoring some much-used functionality into a common_steps step group. Methods like this are in there: steps_for :common do Given "a number of existing $types?" do |type| @initial_item_count = type.singularize.classify.constantize.count end When "the user adds an invalid $type" do |type| post

Hi, How can I have a common set of steps that all my stories share? i.e. My stories often start out looking like this: Given a user Joe Given a user Jordan then: Given("a user $username") do |username| @users ||= {} @user_sessions ||= {} @users[username] = create_user(:username => username) @user_sessions[username] = login_as(@users[username]) end I want to share that

Hey guys, just poppin in to ask if anyone knows when stories will be somewhat stable? We''re starting to use integration tests at work, we''re already using rspec, and I''d like to avoid integration tests if possible. Thanks, Nate "fowlduck" Sutton

I have non non-plain-text story without any steps_for, can it be run? If so, how? Thanks, Nate

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 all, Are there any plans for better documentation for the new StoryRunner feature? I tried to use it today (with Rails), and had a hard time getting my head around whether I was doing it "right" and exactly what things are appropriate to test at that level (this might be exacerbated by the fact that I''ve never really used integration testing that much). A full example of

Hi, all! I have a story steps array.rb and the story array.story. I can run it with ruby array.rb But when I execute spec array.rb nothing happened. I''m wondering how can I use spec command to execute stories? (executing examples is OK) Or maybe another question. If I have to run stories with `ruby'' command, how can I choose the output format? (I think there''s

Hi, I have a need for the StepGroup feature in stories but not clear what''s the current api. Could you provide an example? In my case I have several scenarios which vary in the Givens, but not the results. Ideally I''m hoping to achieve something like: (but anything will do for now :) Scenario: one Given something When he does foo Then good things should happen

Hi there, newb q: The "pending" support for spec''s and steps is nice. I''m just wondering why a scenario itself can''t be pending? I.e. it seems to me like it would be nice to write up scenario titles for scenarios as you think of them, and for low-priority fringe scenarios leave the steps unwritten until it comes time to implement the scenario? Is there a

So I dig rspec and BDD, of course. I thought that Dave''s Google Video was a great intro () -- even if it was a bit heavy on theory and a bit loose on the nuts and bolts. But I don''t see anyone sufficiently answering the big question: What do you test? How do you define higher level and lower level behaviors that should have tests written for them?

Hi, In the spirit of "outside-in" are given-when-then scenarios supposed to be integration tests of views? Or should we be accessing the model interfaces directly (not through a view)?

Does the plain text story framework support teardowns? There doesn''t seem to be anywhere to put an "after" method. My stories test an application which parses and modifies a directory tree, which is currently generated in a Given-clause, and I want it to be deleted after each story. (I don''t mind if the stories take a few seconds to run, the specs are still fast)

This is mostly theoretical, but ... I''m starting to use lighthouse (http://llighthouseapp.com) for my projects at work. I''m organizing iterations as milestones and stories as tickets tagged to a milestone. Lighthouse offers an API so that you can write access the data in your account and write apps to process that data. I think you see where this is going. It seems to me that

hello there, i have been trying my hand at this rbehave material, specifically in terms of integration testing a rails application, and i am curious about the most friendly way to deal with session data. currently, the only way i have found to simulate a session is to open a session and refer to everything afterward via the @session variable stored after open_session. it seems to be workable,

Hey all, I just found Bryan Helmkamp''s (of webrat fame) slides on a presentation he did at GoRuCo 2008: http://www.brynary.com/2008/4/26/story-driven-development-slides-posted On slides 21-24 he talks about writing good stories and shows gives two examples.. the way not to do it and the way to do it. You can also see the video of the presentation at confreaks

I have played a bit with RSpec specs and now want to check out stories. I note that there is no generator for rspec stories pre se (unless I managed to miss all references to one ) and that the only directory relating to stories added by installing rspec is ./stories itself. The documentation at rspec.info seems to presume a great deal of prior knowledge. What I am looking for is a guided tour

anyone have any information on how to effectively use this? Event.observe() doesn''t return anything, and nothing I''ve tried is actually removing the event listeners from the objects. -Jeremy -- Jeremy Kitchen ++ kitchen-RA8HwDor7flnDGu+y90WmgC/G2K4zDHf@public.gmane.org In the beginning was The Word and The Word was Content-type: text/plain -- The Word of Bob.
