Dependencies

All gems are vendored except for Nokogiri & JSON, which have native extensions, & Cucumber, which doesn’t respect vendoring.

Install:

Cucumber 0.3.5 JSON 1.1.6

Tests

We use Cucumber & Webrat for acceptance testing and Shoulda, Factory Girl, & Mocha for unit testing. We use Fakeweb to stop the test suite from hitting external services. We use Nokogiri for parsing markup, especially in acceptance tests.

Production
