Ben J., Have you given up on this? You're right - that defeats the purpose of Spork. You need to make sure that any code that loads code in your project does not make it in to your Spork.prefork block. If you are specifically loading the models in your environment, that's your problem. Here's so

No, I didn't have that one, but had one similar problem where one of my specs edited one non-Ruby file, which caused autotest to reload. I solved that problem by explicitly ignoring it in autotest. I was surprised that autotest cares about non-mapped files :) But now I have another problem - it se

Right, and in the code example I gave, if those preconditions fail then the rest of the example won't be run. There's not really any need for a new semantic element in RSpec, it already works this way out of the box. You can do it "should do something" do some_precondition.should be_met an_o

Let's say I've got this spec: describe Team, "add_player" do it "should add a player to the team" do team = Team.new player = Player.new :name => "Pat" team.add_player player team.should have(1).players team.players.first.name.should == "Pat" end end and for some reason te

I thought the point was we don't want the examples to be run at all, if the condition is not met? Though I'm wondering why not just handle something like this with a stub (on System.getProperty in this case)? Arthur Smith Pat Maddox wrote: You can put expectations in your before block,

You can put expectations in your before block, and that'll give you the behavior you want. before(:each) do @org_root_prop = java.lang.System.getProperty("root") @org_root_prop.should_not be_nil @org_root_prop.trim.should_not be_empty end If either of those expectations fail then the ex

Hi David, Thanks for the suggestion! It indeed make sense for the Junit example... However, my particular usage case for assumption is a bit different. I am using jruby+jspec and I have a group of rspec examples that all require a java property to be set for the examples to be able to run. Besides

JUnit 4.4+ has a feature called assumptions and I am looking for something similar in rspec so that I can express that my examples require a specific environment variable to be specified for testing to make sense. About assumptions from the readme (http://junit.sourceforge.net/doc/ ReleaseNotes4.4
