I''d like to output my rcov data to the screen in ascii instead of html...is that possible using the rake spec:rcov command? Also, is there somewhere that will allow me to search the mail archives...I''m pretty sure someone else has asked similar questions. Thanks for the help.

Being new to testing and ruby, are there "standard" tests that can be done that test for things like cross site scripting and friends? If not, anyone have ideas on what I might do about testing those sorts of things? I''ll be using rails, also.

I''ve just started doing TDD/BDD and like the idea of mocks. So I set out to use them. The doc pages seem great, I setup the mock and then it just works. Here is what I am trying to do: Myuser is a non-rails model of user attributes. We are going to be mocking the connection to the ldap server. The user class has a login method that connects to the ldap server and if successful,

I''ve done a clean install of Ubuntu 7.04 server in 2 different machines and everytime I reboot the machine or manually run /etc/ init.d/mongrel_cluster restart/start the mongrels won''t start correctly. I have to manually start them by using mongrel_rails cluster::start from each app folder. I''ve been searching around and it looks like mongrel has some problems

If I have a low volume application and I want to use DigestAuth to limit access to the site, is it possible to do this with just mongrel/mongrel_cluster? I''m thinking I''m going to have to include Apache to make this work, and I heard that Rails 2 has methods to do this, but thought I''d ask.

Here is a short bash script I wrote to install rspec if your just using the tarballs like me. I probably should have written it in ruby, but there it is: #!/bin/bash RSPEC=rspec-1.0.4-pre-release.tgz RSPECRAILS=rspec_on_rails-1.0.4-pre-release.tgz [ -z "$1" ] && { echo echo "You must include a pathname" echo exit 1 } if [ -d $1/vendor/plugins ]; then cd

Just curious as to the functionality of puppet. Does Puppet ensure that a service is up and running as long as puppet is running? Ie, I want to make sure ssh is always running, if for some reason ssh get''s shut down, does puppet start it back up when it does it''s config sync run? Thanks! --------------------------------- Pinpoint customers who are looking for

OK. I thought I would start by looking at how cron.rb in the puppet lib/type works because what I''m trying to accomplish is similar. However, when looking through that, it wasn''t immediately obvious to me how or when the resulting cron file was getting written out. Is this getting stored up in some instance var or something? Maybe getting sent to standard out and some

Anyone willing to tar me up the 1.0.8 of rspec and rspec_on_rails? I''m interested in giving the story runner stuff a try. I really got to get svn going somehow.

I''m looking for some ideas about how to learn how to use puppet. One of my main concerns is dorking up the machine I''m testing it on. For this I''m using a VM. So that concern is mainly taken care of. If some of you experienced puppet users where going to do it all over, what parts would you try to learn first? I have successfully been able to get a cronjob added

I can see that the file story_adapter.rb isn''t where it is supposed to be, however, I don''t know where it comes from in the first place. Can someone give me a hint here? I installed using: ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/CURRENT/rspec ruby script/plugin install svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/CURRENT/rspec_on_rails The above is

I''ve been watching the thread where Luke is having to spend time defending his position about documentation. Can we get off that? From my perspective, Luke, I''m glad you have documented as much as you have. I''m one of the few who have been a little stymied by what documentation is available, but in no way do I believe berating you for your lack of documentation is a

A couple of things: - it is defaulted to 1.0.5, but if there was a "current" I could probably use that instead. - it seems like everyone might not use the rspec_on_rails piece...what do other think? - there are some other checks I could put in here, suggestions are welcome. - general code suggestions are welcome as well.

I''ve been going through Pat''s example story and noticed that there was no checking for a bad login. I assume this is because that would have made the article bigger and more complicated than it needed to be. So the question that comes of of this is: How do folks normally handle the negative case? My plan was to just use another scenario, but as a new person to BDD/TDD,

Hello, I''ve install ror/mongrel etc, etc on a linux server (rhes). As i''m not root, all package startinf from ruby have been install into ~/gconf/usr ruby-1.8.6 and all of this gem package: -r-xr--r-- 1 dimnce dba 168448 Aug 9 14:53 rails-1.2.3.gem -r-xr--r-- 1 dimnce dba 84480 Aug 9 14:56 rake-0.7.3.gem -r-xr--r-- 1 dimnce dba 217088

This GemPlugin will gzip your HTTP responses from mongrel if the client says that it supports it (eg, most modern browsers). I''ve tested it in IE6, Firefox 1.5 and Firefox 2.0RC3 Install: gem install gzip_filter --source http://edenli.com Configure (assuming rails): cd RAILS_ROOT echo ''uri "/", :handler => plugin("/handlers/gzipfilter")''

I poked around the web a little and didn''t run across how to use https when it asks for certificate validation. I''m trying to connect to devices that don''t have valid certificates, and in this case, I don''t care if they are or not. So when I use my browser to ge to the site, firefox asks me to allow the certificate, then one other question, then I get the

Hi I've just installed Tachyon: The Fringe and it plays but the max resolution that it detects is 1024x768. My monitor is 1600x900. Is there some way of helping it detect the full resolution? I've tried running with a desktop, but no joy. Wine version 1.7.46 Thanks

I''m trying to use mechanize against a site that has four fields in the form. However, those four fields have to be filled in order. So putting something in field one, populates the second field drop down. So I''m thinking that I''ll probably have to call the page multiple times? What sort of things should I be doing to figure out how to interact with this page.

I downloaded the gems from rubyforge, but they are a couple of revs back. What''s the reasoning behind this? I''m no expert, but would be willing to keep rubyforge updated if needed.
