response.should have_text leads to undefined method `has_text?'
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:

Shoulda
Hey, we''re currently using shoulda (http://dev.thoughtbot.com/
shoulda/) on a project and I saw some things that would be really nice
to see in rspec, namely the should_ methods, and especially the
should_be_restful method. Do these go against the rspec goals at
all? Or could an ambitious programmer go to town implementing these
for rspec_on_rails?

do we need stubbing?
Hey all -
The trunk currently supports three types of mocking/stubbing:
Mock Objects (created dynamically at runtime)
Partial Mocking of methods on existing classes
Stubbing of methods on existing objects or classes
The main difference between Partial Mocking and Stubbing is that Stubs
don''t verify.
I''m wondering if we really need the stubbing facility at all, given
that we

Specification Reuse to avoid Combinatorial Explosions
Hello,
While reading Dan North''s BDD tutorial <http://dannorth.net/introducing-bdd>,
I tried to implement his ATM example as spec stubs.
When I first implemented it creating a context for each of his scenarios, I
noticed that there is duplication and a combinatorial explosion of the
specs.
I attached the full files to this email. For brevity, I will use scenario 1

it "should [action] ..." vs it with an active voice
I''d like to start gathering information/debating on the
advantages/disadvantages of using it "should ..." vs other techniques.
Dan North explained why we should use should:
http://dannorth.net/introducing-bdd/
I used to use it "should ..." for the projects I was on, until I was
challenged by a fellow developer who started using it with an active
voice.

Shoulda issue: no more "should have_instance_methods" ?
I''m using Shoulda.
After copying the code here....
.... http://joshuaclayton.github.com/code/2009/07/14/should-act-as-list.html....
into my test_helper file so I can test acts_as_list, I came across
issues. For one I realized I had to get rid of the _ between the
"should" and "have" in past cases, but here, I get this error when I

Ajax, buttons, and firefox
I created a button_to_remote function that I use to call :toggle_blind
visual_effect :toggle_blind, ''div_id''
It works great on Safari, Opera, IE, but in firefox the button does
nothing. Is there a problem with firefox. I can''t seem to find much
online about this issue.

Webrat 0.1.0 released - Ruby Acceptance Testing for Web applications

We developed this plugin while writing my first real set of RSpec

Code is available at: http://svn.eastmedia.net/public/plugins/webrat/

RSpec, shoulda-matchers and Rails model attributes validations
I was trying out RSpec framework in a project and got stopped doing the unit
test of a model. In particular, doing the test for the associations and the
ActiveRecord validations.
I started writing the validations but my tests didn''t look DRY at all.
Before refactoring the tests checked out and look for other people
solutions.

Selenium/Watir usage along side Webrat in story testing
This is related to Selenium/Watir usage along side webrat in story
testing.
MHS_Testing and Rspec-ui provide some great help for testing through
frameworks like Selenium/Watir.
But there is something missing, Webrat has changed the landscape
somewhat with Acceptance Tests/Story Driven development.
Now I have a choice:
1. Tests and rails process run as one test process (Webrat)

Spec''ing via features
As I work with Rails TestUnit tests I am reconsidering how to use
cucumber features. It seems to me that it might be best to have a
coherent view of how to arrange my test suites before I get much further
into this. Now, so far I have considered three possibilities:
1. Use features exclusively. Create a feature file for each model, one
for each controller and possibly an additional one for
