RSpec, Autotest and views

Tuesday, April 17th, 2007

The current incarnation of autotest seems to assume that you are using integrated views. If not, you can modify the rspec_rails_autotest.rb file to run the view specs as well:

 
  # when %r%^app/views/layouts/(.*)\.rhtml% then
  #   ["spec/views/layouts/#{$1}_spec.rb"]
  when %r%^app/views/(.*)\.rhtml$% then
    ["spec/views/#{$1}_view_spec.rb"]
 

Your view spec must be postfixed with “_view_spec.rb” for it to work

Update This works out of the box now.
