autotest stops running tests after the last failing test succeeds

[shalonwood]

When I fix the last failing test in my test suite, autotest stops running tests. It looks like it can't map the files to tests anymore. The last bit of the output when running it with -v is:

Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you. This came in while I was travelling.

Are you using the autotest-rails plugin gem?

[zenspider]

anything?

[shalonwood]

Whoops, sorry! I thought I'd responded to this last week. It looks like the error may have been related to the autotest-inotify plugin; just before you posted that question I accidentally blew my .autotest away, and when I recreated it I didn't remember to add that back in. Shortly afterwards, I noticed that the problem wasn't happening any longer. A bit of testing seemed to imply that it was a result of that plugin.

I didn't have time to do much testing, so it could have been coincidence, however. Also, to answer your question, yes, I'm using autotest-rails.

[zenspider]

Can you file a bug against autotest-inotify and point them back to here?

Closing this ticket.
