Script/general rspec_*

Testing RSpec
1

I have started using rspec after generating much of my applications
models
and controllers. Much of the code is plain vanilla scaffolding.
I accept that this is not very BDD, but I’m building a tool that
required I
do this.

Is there a quick way to generate the test stubs- i.e. the equivalent of
the
Test::Unit ones I now have? Can I run "script/generate rspec_model
"
and the same for controllers on over-top of things?

Thanks,
Nick

I saw those. My question is whether they run fine if model, controller,
scaffold have already been run.

No reason they shouldn’t. You should get the opportunity to
approve/deny any files that already exist, and the new files will just
get written.

Let us know if you run into any problems.

If its existing models you’re dealing with, you probably will want to
add --skip-migration. Just skip over replacing the model.
