similar to: new in ruby and rspec testing

Does anyone know of any RSpec screencasts for dummies, like me :) I have a Java background, but I have never written a java test in my life. I''ve never learned about TDD or BDD so I''m totally blank on everything that has anything to do with testing and stuff. Where should I start?!? ;) Christian... --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this

Howdy, Why does the bundle NOT work when I do the following: - Start TextMate - Open my project - Open my spec - Try to run spec and get an error While the following DOES work: - Open Terminal - Locate my project - Start TextMate via command line (mate .) - Open my spec - Try to run spec and it works Cheers, Mel -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was

Hello all, I''m new to rSpec but after reading a couple of tutorials I''ve become enamored. Anyway, I am at minute 42 of the rSpec basics screencast ( peepcode.com) and I''m having the following error running autotest w/rSpec: D:\ruby\projects\forecaster>autotest loading autotest/rails_rspec c:\ruby\bin\ruby -rrubygems -e "require ''redgreen''"

<http://www.apress.com/book/bookDisplay.html?bID=10368> Came across this as a stub page browsing Amazon UK. This is good news! I''m surprised it hasn''t been discussed on the list before. Was Chad keeping it a secret? I hope it will have plenty of BDD theory. I''m still waiting for that magic book I can give to someone and say "here - read this, it

I''m going through Peepcode''s Rspec Basics for an overview. He''s just doing a simple spec: class PeepCode end describe PeepCode do it "should be awsome" do end end So running spec spec/simple_spec.rb should produce according to his screen cast: 1 example, 0 failures, 1 not implemented but I only recieve: 1 example, 0 failures Also spec

I''m interested in tracking edge development of the RSpec on Rails plugin and I''m a bit confused. The installation guide (http://rspec.rubyforge.org/documentation/rails/install.html) says, "You''ll have to install the RSpec core gem first." It also says, "Take note of what rspec version you''re installing ? it''s very important that you

I tried to install the RSpec Rails plugin as described here: http://rspec.info/documentation/rails/install.html After I run this... ruby script/plugin install http://rspec.rubyforge.org/svn/tags/CURRENT/rspec At the very end after a lot of output I get this error: Plugin not found: ["http://rspec.rubyforge.org/svn/tags/CURRENT/ rspec"] It looks as though it actually was installed

I''m taking my first fledgling steps driving a new ruby (non-rails) project with BDD. I''ve got a (test) story working. However, when I run the story in TextMate (via command-r), the output is plain text. See: http://skitch.com/georgeanderson/8grg/run-examples How do I get the output to look pretty (formatted)? rspec-1.1.3 OS X 10.5.2 TextMate v1.5.7 (1455) Thanks, /g --

I''m getting this when I run my Rails controller specs. <projectroot>/config/../lib/authenticated_system.rb:16: warning: Object#id will be deprecated; use Object#object_id I added "include AuthenticatedTestHelper" to /spec/spec_helper.rb so that my controller tests^H^H^H^H^Hspecs can use the "login_as" helper method. Anyone know how to fix this? -- Cheers,

There''s been some discussion on the IRC channel about getting a site for Merb going. Since the culture around the project is pretty casual, I figured I''d just throw a few ideas together, see what you guys think. So, firstly here are three example pages, just to show off the general look and feel. http://mr-eel.com/tmp/merb/01_frontpage.gif

I have my application happily generating UUID primary keys using the uuidtools gem. But the auto-generated specifications created by "script/generate rspec_scaffold...", etc, assume that one is using a sequential integer primary key. For those who have hit this same issue, is it just a matter of rewriting the auto-generated specifications to take this into account, or does one have to

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/

I vote for spec''ing. Anybody else?

Hey all, I''m very happy to announce that ActiveReload[1] has generously offered to sponsor a lighthouse[2] account for rspec. We''ll be moving ticket tracking there. We''ve already got the account set up and will soon make it public. We''re also going to be getting a sponsored slice at Engine Yard[3] to host source control, which will be either mercurial or git

I''m building an http communicator class for a web service API wrapper and I''m trying to go through the BDD process in doing so. I''m having a bit of a struggle figuring out how to set up the tests in relation to isolating things appropriately as well as testing behavior vs testing implementation. Specifically, I''m trying to set up a post method on my

I''m going through PeepCode RSpec Basics and he gets a beautiful rspec results page in html when he presses a hotkey in TextMate. I would guess it''s along the lines of Apple + R but I don''t get the same results and I''m using the same bundle. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
