Nice post by Defiler on RSpec:
RSpec is mere days away from a new release with greatly improved Rails support.
Since people are currently paying me to write Rails code, rather than plain old standalone Ruby (hint hint), I’ve been waiting for these features before making serious use of RSpec.
As an exercise, I ‘ported’ the acts_as_authenticated controller tests to RSpec. The results were fairly interesting. Subjectively, I find it more readable than the test/unit version. Objectively, one of the test/unit test cases doesn’t get run because there are two methods with the same name.
…
So far, so good. Anyone who thinks that RSpec is ‘only’ about a different set of terminology should give it a serious try first.
