I'm resurrecting this thread. This is becoming a major issue for us, and we have some allocated time coming into play soon to work on a solution. What's the current state of the art for distributed test runs? Is anybody doing it for real? As part of the build or before check-in? Where would be the best place to contribute effort? Testjour looks the most likely... Any others out there? cheers, Matt -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
