How we do Testing

Note: This document is outdated. As of December 2009 we have mocha, selenium and cucumber integrated. Lots of available testing tools, which is good. More later...

We use Thoughtbot Shoulda for our testing (see http://thoughtbot.com/projects/shoulda](http://thoughtbot.com/projects/shoulda).

How to configure

Run the following Rake tasks:

#>rake gems:install
#>rake gems:unpack

Multiple Rake tasks are used to run tests:

#>rake db:test:prepare
#>rake test
#>rake test:units
#>...

How to use it?

Very similar to Test::Unit:

require 'shoulda'
class QuoteTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
  def setup
    # normal Test::Unit setup stuff here
  end

  # standard Test::Unit test
  def test_should_be_true
    assert true
  end

  # shoulda 'should' test
  should "be true" do
    assert true
  end
end
