I’m still very new to all this but I like Machinist a LOT more than Factory Girl. It just seems a more natural way to do things but of course it’s a personal thing.

Sorry for posting this here, but I’m stumped with this curiosity and I’m not sure where else to post it. I configured autotest to run RCov as soon as all of my Cucumber tests pass. I did this using one of autotest’s hooks (http://gist.github.com/555162). That hook basically calls up the following rake task (http://gist.github.com/555163).

My problem with this though is that the tests get run twice. Once during the run_all_tests method of autotest, and then another time when the above rake task is called.

Is there a way to force this to just run the rake task once prior to displaying RCov results? Very minor problem if at all, I know, but I can’t stop obsessing over it!

I also needed to do a “sudo gem install autotest-rails”

rcov only runs the tests for me, it doesn’t actually give me any coverage data when I run rake rcov:rspec. What gives?

Clayton,

I wrote a Rails template with an approach to testing inspired from this blog post.

I forked the RCov task on github, and added tasks that allow you generate separate rspec or cucumber coverage reports along with the aggregate.

Download at http://gist.github.com/231022

rake rcov:all for the aggregate coverage
rake rcov:rspec for rspec coverage only
rake rcov:cucumber for cucumber coverage only
