RSpec and Cucumber

Ruby

As a learner of RSpec in “The RSpec Book”
When I run the cucumber command, I get loaderror as,

C:…\codebreaker\features>cucumber codebreaker_starts_game.feature

Yes! I got green by pushed the .rb file into ‘features’ dir.

Yes! I got green by pushed the .rb files into ‘features’ dir.

Before that the Cucumber got run the feature, also finded the .rb file.
I stored env.rb inside subdir ‘support’ of dir ‘features’, so Cucumber
got env.rb file.

And then the env.rb had LOAD_PATH to game.rb in dir ‘codebreaker’, but
the game.rb file couldn’t load at run time.

Because the snippet in env.rb is,
$LOAD_PATH<<File.expand_path(’…/…/lib’, FILE)
require ‘codebreaker/game’

if you reading ‘The RSpec Book’ then you can see the above.

The game.rb existed at the out of the dir ‘feature’, so I want to do
either of the following,

  1. edit the path of the .rb file as,
    $LOAD_PATH<<File.expand_path(’…/…/…/lib’, FILE)

  2. relocated the needed .rb files into ‘feature’.

Hi. I suggest you two things. Read the entire RSpec and Cucumber books.
Take a look at this gem: GitHub - damian-m-g/cocot: Skeleton builder of a new proyect wich will be developed with BDD. . Hope
this can help you.
