merb-rspec

===

A plugin for the Merb framework that provides helper functionality for the rSpec testing framework.

Stories

  merb-rspec supports rSpec story generation for regular Merb apps.  See http://rspec.info for more information
  on using rSpec plain text stories.

  When using the generators for the first time, a few extra helper files will be generated.

Generation Examples

Simple

  To generate a simple story use:

  {{{merb-gen story my_story}}}

  This will generate all files needed to support that story.
    - steps/my_story.rb
    - stories/my_story
    - stories/my_story.rb

Complex

  You can keep your stories organized by putting stories into sub-directories.  To do this with the generator use:

  {{{merb-gen story complex/story_group/story_file}}}

  This will generate the following files:
    - steps/complex_story_group_story_file.rb
    - stories/complex/story_group/story_file
    - stories/complex/story_group/story_file.rb

Usage Examples

  merb-rspec has a rake task for running your stories.  To include it you need to make merb-rspec a dependency in your app.

  To make the rake file available, in config/init.rb include the following line:
  {{{dependency "merb-rspec" if Merb.environment == "test"}}}

  Once you have the rake file available you can run the stories:

  rake story[my_story]

  OR for complex examples

  rake story[complex/story_group/story_file]

  OR to run all the stories

  rake story[all]
