We use humans to check layout and presentation since it's visual and not something that can be determined correct by a program in a reasonably maintainable way (at least IMO). We use scenarios and specs to ensure that the application is providing the right display of information from the system, and the proper form/inputs that people should be able to access through the app. We find the combination gives us a good flexibility to change the UI while being confident that the app is still doing everything it should be, > -- > Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. > _______________________________________________ > rspec-users mailing list > rspec-users@rubyforge.org > http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users > -- Zach Dennis http://www.continuousthinking.com http://www.mutuallyhuman.com _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
