Forum: Redcloth running tests on gem

Is there a way to run he tests with cjust the gem installed?

I wanted to run the tests on the gem and tried:

$ jruby -S gem list RedCloth

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

RedCloth (4.1.1)


$ jruby --version
jruby 1.1.5 (ruby 1.8.6 patchlevel 114) (2008-11-14 rev 6586) 
[i386-java]



[jruby.git (master)]$ jruby -S gem check -test RedCloth

Not currently, but it seems a reasonable request.  File a ticket and
I'll make gem check --test RedCloth work.
