Visual Test Automation

Ruby
1

OK, I guess I just don’t kow to find it, but I’m looking for something
that automates the running of Ruby Test::Unit tests and generates one of
those “red bar / green bar” displays.

I see a billion “automet the browser with javscript” deals, but that’s
not what I am looking for. I just want some process on some machine to
run tests and provide a nig simple display of each test, each assertion
and whether it passed or failed.

I wrote one of these myself for Lasso a couple years ago, but I’m
struggling to find one for Ruby.

Help. Thx.

I don’t use any of these, but I think you want to experiment with
the runner stuff in test/unit. tk ships with ruby so it prolly works
as-is. Check it:

Perhaps “Turn” is what you are looking for.

sudo gem install turn

Wouldn’t a continuous integration server with formatted output piped
to somewhere give you what you want?

Maybe something like:
http://integrityapp.com/

(It’s on my to-look-at-list, but I haven’t tried it yet myself.)
