[rspec-users] File creation

2010-04-22 Thread ben rooney
I have a model that generates the authorization_rules.rb for declarative_auth. I am not sure how I can go about testing the model - apart from anything I don't want my test to over-write the file - so, er, I am not quite sure how to go about it. I *could* have some sort of sniffer in my model to

[rspec-users] running: 'rake spec' mixes ApplicationHelper into my ActiveRecord model instances

2010-04-22 Thread Stephen Bannasch

2010/4/22 Nicolás Sanguinetti godf...@gmail.com Yeah, just that now you define your entire example as pending. So instead of: You now do pending does something do this_will_fail end Thank you! I like it, very clean. Is that documented somehwere? I couldn't find it. John
