I’m trying to implement ruby-openid 2.1.6 using TDD. Many of the resources I’ve been using to research the plugin open\_id\_authentication and RESTful-authentication were written back in 2007 and don’t work, and also don’t have a test-driven approach. Does anyone know where I can find some good resources that would explain and maybe have some examples with some tests and also how they are getting them to pass, that is also fairly current? I know this is a lot to ask, but thanks for trying. Wayne ---

The original tutorial can be found at [http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?pid=74245#p74245](http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?pid=74245#p74245) The source code is now available on [github.com](http://github.com) at [http://github.com/activefx/restful\_auth](http://github.com/activefx/restful_auth) … ree/master Since this new tutorial will be less of a step by step instruction guide and more of an overview and description of the files in the application, I suggest you grab the app from github to work with. ---

Wayne - sorry I misread your post, I thought you were announcing the tutorial, but I realise now you were quoting someone else. Colin 2009/5/13 WJSimacek [removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid) ---
