Rails 3 Upgrade

Testing RSpec
1

Hi,

I am upgrading a rails 2.1.0 app to Rails 3. Before I started my
migration, I wrote all the tests cases for my app in Rspec 1.x version.

I am doubting whether rspec test cases written in 1.x version will work
when my app starts running in Rails3. After I upgrade to rails 3, i want
to run my rspec 1.x version tests cases on it to see if I have broken
anything during the upgrade.

Will RSpec 1.x version work in a Rails 3 application ? Please help.

Not out of the box, but a lot of what you’ve done will probably work
just fine. Start with the Upgrade information at:

http://relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-core
http://relishapp.com/rspec/rspec-rails

and feel free to ask questions here if you run into any specific
problems.

Good luck!

Just a note, you may want to try upgrading first to the latest Rails 2
(is
it still 2.3.9?) version. You will still have a lot to do jumping
between
the latest 2 and 3 but seems that a lot of the support and info out
there
targets that jump moreso than going from earlier 2 versions. May or may
not
be a big deal depending on your app.

You need to change a few syntax-related things, please check the group
archives this thread specifically

Hey guys!

I got a serious issue right after upgraded to rails 3.

Rails doesn’t render layout, just only if I explicitly add this line to
actions at end of actions.

render :layout=>“application”

If I place layout “application” to the controller doesn’t work, but I
think it must have to work without anything. Cos That is the default
layout.

Any idea?

thx
