Good explanation Phillip. It gives a clear idea...
Thanks

Others can explain it better than me (and have), but in a nutshell:
- use Cucumber for full stack (as the user would see it) testing. Some
call it User Acceptance Testing (UAT)
- use RSpec for unit/functional testing
hey there
there's also http://bddcasts.com with railscasts like bdd screencasts
haven't check it much myself, but might deserve a look

Already reading that one thanks :-) It is a good book and it's helping
me get my head around it all. It's just a case of understanding when to
develop using Cucumber and when to user RSpec on it's own. I think this
will come with experience.

Thanks for this David.
I suppose the thing I am so used to is testing classes in isolation
whereas Cucumber is about testing everything together.
Do Rails developers generally not test things in isolation using mocking
and stubbing?

Hi,
I've been a .Net developer for a number of years now and I'm a big fan
of TDD / BDD. I have been following these principles for a couple of
years and use tools such as NUnit for testing purposes.
I am now looking at moving across to using RoR for a number of projects
and I'm still getting my
