Re: [rspec-users] Am I off track on my testing?

I really agree with the topic starter. I've always done the rspec testing with all layers in isolation, a bit like the first example. Now for my latest project I went a bit for a more TDD approach, sending a request to a controller and testing the full stack, including the dynamic bits of the layou

Re: [rspec-users] [Q] how to restructure tests for an abstract class?

Question is, would you duplicate the specs for all the classes that include a certain module (through shared behaviour for example), or would you use one set of specs for just the module, and specify that a class should include that module? On Sun, Feb 24, 2008 at 12:19 AM, Pat Maddox <[EMAIL PROT
