Forum: RSpec Autospec only runs specs in spec/models/ folder

Hi,

Where do I change the mappings of the specs in my rails app.
rspec/lib/autotest/rspec.rb?

Given the latest versions in rspec, what is the bare minimum
plugins/gems that I need to run autospec. I've been playing around and
installing too much stuff into my app that I'm confused :P

THanks!
Wayne

All you need to do this is rspec-rails, rspec, and ZenTest.

If you look at lib/autotest/rails_rspec.rb, you'll see how RailsRspec
clears and resets the mappings between spec files and their associated
application code files. Take a look at that and see if it makes sense
to you. If so, you can follow a similar path with your own mappings in
a .autotest file at the root of your project.

HTH,
David

Thanks. Realised that there were a few extra folders that were created 
in the spec which wasn't mapped.
