This is a great idea, I’m going to give it a try. Does anyone know if
there is a way to accomplish this wthout having to send an HTTP request
to w3.org http://w3.org? It would be nice to write functional test
that will pass even when you’re not connected to the internet. Is there
a ruby xhtml validation library?
The assert_valid_markup plugin now catches SocketError exceptions, so
that the assertion will pass if there’s temporarily no connection.
Plus, it caches responses from the W3C validator, so it only makes a
connection if the markup has changed.
It also has class-level methods, so you can do things like:
class FooControllerTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
assert_valid_markup :home_page, :another_page
assert_valid_markup :some_private_page, :but_first => :login
end
The plugin lives here:
http://redgreenblu.com/svn/projects/assert_valid_markup/
As such, this should install it for you:
script/plugin install
