As someone who sound like they rely heavily on a fixture replacement, do you find you achieve the same level of isolation from dependencies when setting up your tests? I personally feel I run across more errors setting up my specs when I am primarily using a fixture replacement, as opposed to mocks. Though I realize this is probably do to a learning curve involved with using specs and a fixture replacement in harmony. _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
