Hi I'm loading a gem on demand but can't find a way to spec it.
Assuming rubygems is already loaded, I assumed the following would work: describe SqliteConnection, " class" do it "should require 'sqlite3'" do Kernel.should_receive(:require).with("sqlite3") SqliteConnection.new end end Unfortunately it seems that rubygems does something funky to "require" because it works as a standalone method, but not as a Kernel.require call (ie Kernel.require 'sqlite3' => "LoadError: no such file to load -- sqlite3"). Do I need to set the expectation on the "main" object? I have also tried this: main_object = self describe SqliteConnection, " class" do it "should require 'sqlite3'" do main_object.should_receive(:require).with("sqlite3") SqliteConnection.new end end but fails with this: Mock 'Object' expected :require with ("sqlite3") but received it with ("sqlite3/database") (!!!) I'm at a loss, I hope someone can help Thanks Ashley -- blog @ http://aviewfromafar.net/ linked-in @ http://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleymoran currently @ home _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
