I'm using a call to wget to download a large datafile (multiple megabytes) having assumed this will be quicker than using open-uri.
How can I spec the behaviour? Ideally I'd also like to not be hitting the internet every time I test! in my_object_spec.rb describe ".get_data" do before(:each) do @my_obj = MyObject.create(@valid_attributes) end it "should download the file" do # behaviour goes here end end in my_object.rb: def get_data `wget --output-document=#{self.filename} #{self.file_uri}` end I'll be massively grateful for any help anyone can give me. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
