Re: [rspec-users] rspec groups?

Using the -e option from the command line, you can also specify a string which is to be run, this is a way to run only one describe block, or one it block. The rake task method suggested by Edvard is the other option On Mar 10, 2008, at 5:42 AM, Edvard Majakari wrote: >> The idea is that y

[rspec-users] RSpec view test for :partial with :locals?

I'm currently working on some RSpec view tests and I'm having problems with expect_render. Most of the expect_render's work fine, but in one of my views I have: <%= render :partial => "user_cloud", :locals => {:user => @featured_user} %> I see that expect_render supports ":object" or ":col

[rspec-users] [ANN] RSpactor 0.0.2 : autorun your spec files

Hi all. I want to introduce RSpactor and its "draft" release 0.2.0. RSpactor is a little command line tool to automatically run your changed specs (much like autotest). As you may expect, it concentrates on the use of RSpec. It was especially designed to use filesystem events like FSEvent on Leopa

[rspec-users] for a beginner - good rspec examples?

I'm learning to use rspec and I want to see some good examples. Any recommendations of open source projects that demonstrate the use of rspec? So far I've found: 1) the Caboose sample app (http://sample.caboo.se/) 2) the Altered Beast forums app (http://beast.caboo.se/forums/1/topics/46

Re: [rspec-users] view spec on rails questions

For content_for blocks we have a separate "testing.html.erb" layout which we use when rendering our view from our spec. We then ensure the things generated in content_for are rendered correctly.. ie: render "foo/index", :layout => "testing" Zach On Mon, Mar 10, 2008 at 11:23 PM, Jonathan Linowes

Corey, What part of the Story do you like that you want the designers to be exposed to? A higher level API, the plain text part (separation from implementation of the test), etc... ? Zach On Tue, Mar 11, 2008 at 8:39 AM, Zach Dennis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tue, Mar 11, 2008 at 8:03 AM, C
