I've been battling the strangest behavior, and hoping someone can shed some light... I am using RSpec for MVC tests, and then Cucumber for stories/features. I am new to Cucumber, and recently finished converting our RSpec Story Runner suite to it. What I'm seeing is that if I clean the database (e.g. rake db:reset), then run all my specs, then run the features, Webrat fails to find various fields on form pages. If I run them in the reverse order, with features first, then specs, often times various specs fail (seems somewhat random and odd in what may fail).
I believe that if I clean the database between each, that things work. I did not previously have to do that with story runner. But, also, what I'm finding is that I can't seem to run rake db:reset twice in the same rake task (due to Rake's usual not allowing that), so this makes setting up a rake task for CruiseControl.rb hard, as it won't reset the DB a second time. I could probably just run it as a shell command, but that seems like a terrible hack. I'm running into this both on MacOS X, and on my CI server which is Ubuntu 8.04 running CruiseControl.rb (from git:// github.com/benburkert/cruisecontrolrb.git). Has anyone else seen this kind of thing, any ideas?
