The RSpec Development Team is pleased to announce the release of  
RSpec-1.0.3.

== Changes

This is the compatibility release!

- Compatible with autotest!!! (As of ZenTest 3.6.0 - see below)
- Compatible with edge rails (as of r6825).
- Compatible with jruby (since release 1.0.1)

See [http://rspec.rubyforge.org/changes.html](http://rspec.rubyforge.org/changes.html) for more detail.

== About RSpec

RSpec is a framework which provides programmers with a Domain Specific  
Language to describe the behaviour of Ruby code with readable,  
executable examples that guide you in the design process and serve  
well as both documentation and tests.

== Autotest compatibility

ZenTest-3.6.0 boasts a new autodiscovery and plugin model that other  
frameworks can register with and plug into. RSpec-1.0.3 ships with the  
necessary plugin code, so all you need to do is download and go:

For Rails apps:

gem install ZenTest --version ‘\>= 3.6.0’  
rails myproject  
cd myproject  
ruby script/plugin install  
svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/CURRENT/rspec  
ruby script/plugin install  
svn://rubyforge.org/var/svn/rspec/tags/CURRENT/rspec\_on\_rails  
script/generate rspec  
autotest

… and off you go

For a non-rails app, you’ll need to follow the convention of parallel  
lib and spec directories. For example:

gem install ZenTest --version ‘\>= 3.6.0’  
gem install rspec --version ‘\>= 1.0.3’  
mkdir stuff  
cd stuff  
mkdir lib  
mkdir spec  
autotest

Enjoy!
