rspec version 1.1.9 has been released!

Behaviour Driven Development for Ruby.

Changes:

Version 1.1.9 / 2008-10-20

WARNING: This release removes implicit inclusion of modules in example
groups.
This means that if you have ‘describe MyModule do’, MyModule will not be
included in the group.

  • 2 major enhancements

    • Add extend to configuration (thanks to advice from Chad F.)
    • Modules are no longer implicitly included in example groups

  • 4 minor enhancements

    • mingw indicates windows too (thanks to Luis L. for the tip)
    • improved output for partial mock expecation failures
    • it_should_behave_like now accepts n names of shared groups
    • eliminated redundant inclusion/extension of ExampleGroupMethods

  • 6 bug fixes

    • spec command with no arguments prints help
    • fixed typo in help. Fixes #73.
    • fixed bug where should_receive…and_yield after similar stub added
      the args_to_yield to the stub’s original args_to_yield (Pat M.)
    • fixed bug where rspec-autotest (autospec) was loading non-spec
      files in spec directory. Fixes #559.
    • fixed bug where should_not_receive was reporting twice
    • fixed bug where rspec tries to run examples just because it is
      required (even if there are no examples loaded). Fixes #575.

Thanks for rspec–it totally rocks. The stubbing mechanism and the
english like syntax are very very very nice.

Thanks!

PS Here’s wishing for 1.9 support some day .

It seems the spec task somehow depends on spicycode-rcov, which is not
available on RubyForge. Was that an unintentional glitch?

The gem was build with RubyGems 1.3, which allow you have runtime and
development dependencies.

With RubyGems 1.3.0 spicycode-rcov is not installed, but with 1.2 it
does.

I hope JRuby can jump soon to 1.3 (and soon 1.3.1) for us to rejoice
of development and runtime dependencies (at last, no more hoe
dependencies for us).

So: was unintentional :slight_smile:

1.3 update is planned for JRuby 1.1.5 (soon).
