I'm convinced. We'll add an AfterStep hook. Do you want to give a stab
at a patch? Start by writing a feature - see
features/after_block_exceptions.feature for a good example of the
style we like...
Sounds good. I'll give it a whirl tonight.

Thanks for doing that. I have one more favour to ask: Can you
show me
an example of a StepDefinition that would cause the file to be
created?
That is a tougher question, because any browser interaction that
causes an
HTTP request to the app under test could result in a server error.
Ajax requests can be triggered by javascript, and in various parts
of our
app, they are triggered by clicking on links, submitting forms,
dragging and
dropping divs, hovering over a div, waiting for a page load to
complete, as
a callback from interacting with a 3rd party web service, or
waiting for a
setTimeout to execute.
So one way I could tackle it is to add a step to the end of every
scenario
that says "Then the application should not have issued any
responses with
50x status codes", but that would be a) repetitive, and b) not
fail until
all steps had run, making it harder to track down the step in the
test where
the failure occurred.
One way to look at may be that I'm trying to enforce an invariant.
Under
no circumstances in my test suite is it appropriate for my app to
raise a
50x error. In my Rails integration suite, webrat enforces this
particular
invariant for me, but can't find a good hook in the selenium test
stack to
do this, which is why I'm looking at this route.

Luke
