Hello! I've been lurking in the list a while, and now I would like to ask you a somewhat "noobish" question... This is the first time I've run across this particular problem, so I'm not sure what to do. I'm sure this is so common that's in a textbook somewhere, but what is the best way to write specs for code that calls out to an external server?
I've just started working on a project that will use AMQP messaging (and the "amqp" gem), and most of the code I've written so far is all about talking to a messaging server. The only alternatives I saw for writing specs were starting said server, and mocking/stubbing out all the code that would talk to it. I went witht he second one, but I feel it's a fragile approach that won't actually allow me to find bugs, since everything is mocked out. What is the best way to do this? -- Bira http://compexplicita.wordpress.com http://compexplicita.tumblr.com _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
