Nick Sieger contributed an RSpec test framework that's native to Buildr: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-29 Using JTestR we would still have to write a test framework to use the Ant task, both use RSpec and we won't gain any features that I know of, so I prefer to go with Nick's framework.
