Are we developing the code in TDD style with CI? Currently all the  
methods I have added, I have a seperate ruby code which runs test  
against to verify my results. I would like to know are we adding the  
tests build into the code itself? Sorry, I didn’t see the test cases,  
thats why I asked.

Thanks.

Thanks to the awesome work by the rubinius team, if you’re working on  
the libraries, you’re effectively working test-first.

The tests live in tests\specs\core\* today. When Jim finishes his work  
on getting the rubinius specs running they’ll move somewhere else.

Thanks,
