- Make sure you can install it.
- Make sure you have bundler and rake (
gem install bundler rake
) - Fork the repo (there's a button on Github)
- Clone your fork (
git clone git@github.com:YOUR_GITHUB_NAME/seeing_is_believing.git
) - Install the dependencies (
rake install
) This approach is painful, but it means the full test suite is 1 minute instead of 10min. - Get a list of rake tasks (
rake -T
) - Run the full test suite (
rake
) - Run the rspec tests
bundle exec rspec
from here you can pass options you want, such as a tag for the tests you're interested in. - Run the Cucumber tests
bundle exec cucumber
(these literally invoke the executable, as a user would)
I often have the dependencies installed in my Ruby environment, as well, which lets me invoke the binaries like rspec
directly. This can get messed up because it ignores Bundler.
I often tag the test I'm working on so I can run it in isolation. You can do this with line numbers, too, but line numbers are harder to get to work, you can't add the tag to a second test and have them keep working, and they can break if your lines move around.
To run a specific cucumber scenario, I usually tag the cuke with @wip
then run cucumber -t @wip
.
