Forum: RSpec Autospec does not work w/ cucumber features?

Hi!

And now for the second part of the subject of my previous mails :)

$ cat cucumber.yml
default: .
autotest: -v .
autotest-all: -v -f progress .
$ cucumber -i . -f progress
PP

Pending Scenarios:

1)  enlightenment (meditation)

$ AUTOFEATURE=true autospec     # bug! prompt returns immediately, 
ZenTest gem not a dependency? a warning that autotest was not found 
would be nice.
$ sudo gem install ZenTest
Successfully installed ZenTest-3.11.0
1 gem installed
Installing ri documentation for ZenTest-3.11.0...
Installing RDoc documentation for ZenTest-3.11.0...
$ AUTOFEATURE=true autospec
^CInterrupt a second time to quit
^C


it just does not do anything at all...
and I haven't had any luck with earlier versions of cucumber, either.
Nor does autospec become more active when I have implemented some 
features already.
afaik I did everything mentioned in
   http://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/wikis/autotest-integration

any ideas?

NB: where to file the autospec/autotest warning missing bug; rspec 
plain? rspec-cucumber?

Bye,
Kero.

Huh.  The autospec command comes from RSpec; do you have this issue
without setting AUTOFEATURE=true?

Yup.

But as I only have features, I would not expect it
to do anything in that case ;)

Perhaps the problem is related to that.. if you add a spec or two what

Nope!
I've been looking for the "default directory setup" for quite a while.
It's not documented as such, but suggested at
http://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber/wikis/migration-from-rspec-stories
And behold!

$ autospec
(Not running features.  To run features in autotest, set 
AUTOFEATURE=true.)
$ AUTOFEATURE=true autospec
loading autotest/cucumber
cucumber features --format progress --format autotest --color --out 
/tmp/autotest-cucumber20081212-23416-1vlymnp-0
................

cucumber features --format progress --format autotest --color --out 
/tmp/autotest-cucumber20081212-23416-njhy50-0
................

Actually, just making a ./features directory is already enough...

What is clearly a bug, is that the suggested cucumber.yml
profiles autotest and autotest-all, when they include the
directory to -r require and the directory with the features,
are not picked up by autospec.

To file under rspec, I suppose:

Kero.
