Hi, all, This isn''t about rspec, but this list has people whose opinions I respect. So, I''m looking for a new version control system for my local development. I was going to install subversion, but I''ve heard rumors of people using some newer ones. Thoughts? I''d like to be able to run it either locally or on a home server. If I run it off a home server, then

Hi, I''m just getting e set up on my machine, and I was wondering if someone could point me to the current rspec bundle for textmate? I googled and found a million of them, I think.

Hi, all! I would love if someone could help me figure this out. I can''t seem to see why the following fails: Here''s the spec: it "should redirect back to the index page" do Coupon.should_receive (:new).with({"name"=>@expectedName,"amount"=>@expectedAmount}).and_return(@coupon) @coupon.should_receive(:save) response.should

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

So, I have a plugin that adds a method to ActiveRecord::Base, let''s call the method is_encrypted. class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base is_encrypted end So, my question is, how do I write a spec to show that is_encrypted is called here? I would rather not write specs that say that the behavior is there, since I have tested the behavior already in my plugin. Thanks. -Corey --

I''d like to add taggability to a model in the site I''m working on, and I wanted to get an idea of what people are using. I keep seeing that acts_as_taggable is deprecated, so I tried the acts_as_taggable_on_steroids. I also tried be_taggable. In any case, I figured I''d see what people use. thanks. -corey -- http://www.coreyhaines.com The Internet''s Premiere

Hi, I''ve been investigating plain text stories, and I had a quick question. How would I go about creating story tests for views in isolation, instead of the full stack? I had hoped to be able to do a straight render ''/'', but it says it can''t find the method. The reason that I want to do this is that I want to give our designer/business people a way to write

All, I''m missing something simple, I think. I am writing a spec to say that my CouponController should create a new coupon from the form parameters, then set the current user. Here''s the spec: describe CouponController, "When posting to save_coupon" do before(:each) do @expectedName = "pepper''s" @expectedAmount = 5 coupon =

RSpeckers: I''m trying to install this into a Merb-generated RSpec rig: http://code.jeremyevans.net/doc/fixture_dependencies/ It requires inserting their test case into RSpec. This is the documented way to do it: describe ''Post'' do inherit FixtureDependencies::SequelTestCase And that leads to the syntax error in the subject line. (No stack trace is available

How do you load fixtures from specs as you would test? eg. rake db:fixtures:load RAILS_ENV=development -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/rspec-users/attachments/20080131/38c3b0ab/attachment.html

When working with views, I use instance methods of ApplicationHelper: # app/helpers/application_helper.rb: module ApplicationHelper def distribute(total, min, cutof, list) [1,2,3] end end # app/views/planner/_mta_colors.rhtml: <td> <% ... dist = distribute(total_v_px, 4, 0, colors.collect{|color| color[1]}) ... %> So to test the distribute method in ApplicationHelper, I have

Is there anyway to achieve inheritance of specifications? Suppose I had an action like def index filter = params[:filter] ? params[:filter] : ''%'' order = params[:order] ? params[:order] : ''created_at DESC'' @posts = Post.find(:conditions => "title LIKE #{filter}", :order => order) ... end Now I might have half a dozen specs for this

I''m trying to specify that a particular view must render two different partials. My spec looks like: describe AClass do it do template.should_receive(:render).with(:partial => ''foo'', :locals => { ... }) ... end describe ''some conditional case'' do it do template.should_receive(:render).with(:partial =>

Hey all, you HAVE to read this blog post: http://blog.jrock.us/articles/RSpec%20vs.%20Test::More.pod#comments My favorite parts are: 1) ... some rspec code ... > For the sake of comparison lets translate this directly into perl: ... some perl code ... 2) >First, notice that the rspec-version isn''t actually ruby code. It''s not any real language. For the sake of

I''m heading out of town, but had a quick thought I wanted to share. Rather then using ambiguous named request helpers in controller specs like "do_request", I''ve been using more readable helpers like "post_create". For example... describe ProjectController do def post_create post :create, ... end before do end it "creates a new

I''m running into an issue using ONLY rspec version 1.3.3 (no rails / rspec-rails with this project) where i''m hitting the following error: My code looks like this: describe Win32Meterpreter before :all helper_method end def helper_method ## If a session came back, try to interact with it. if @session

Hello, In Rspec 1.x I I could create custom ExampleGroups that would have behaviour similar to controller specs. How can I accomplish something similar to this in Rspec 2? I would like to create an example group to test my Cells instances ( http://github.com/apotonick/cells ). Thanks!

Hello, all, I have this error with my rspec - controller - test, and yes, I do found the thread with the same error here, but it isn''t helped me, think it''s not my case. i have rails -v = Rails 3.0.0.rc, rspec -v = 2.0.0.beta.18 (hope they should match each other). my test is here: spec/controllers/posts_controller_spec.rb and i ran it with command: rspec

Hi, Googling ''RSpec describe scope'' didn''t yield much, so apologies if this question has been dealt with. It seem well known that a ruby class is ''visible'' between describes, and if this is a problem then you should use some counter as prefix or suffix: ''class Item_001; ... end'' Is there any work underway, or sheduled release where
