Run RSpec specs with JRuby
--------------------------
Key: BUILDR-29
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-29
Project: Buildr
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Test frameworks
Affects Versions: 1.3
Reporter: Nick Sieger
Attached is a test framework I wrote that allows me to write RSpec specs that
test Java code.
If Buildr is run under MRI, JRuby is downloaded as a dependency and launched to
run the specs.
If Buildr is run under JRuby, JRuby will launch a sub-vm of itself, including
the project classpath but using the same JRuby version that was used to launch
Buildr.
Note the following features and/or limitations:
* No specs for this currently exist; they'll need to be written if you want the
coverage. I probably won't write them (for now) :)
* Assumes project specs are in the "spec" directory. You may want this to be
customized.
* Runs specs in "specdoc" mode (hard-coded). Choosing a formatter would be
another possible customization.
* Allows a {{SPEC}} environment variable to be set or passed on the
command-line to specifiy a single spec to run (just like the RSpec rake task)
* Allows {{:required_gems}} as an option to be passed to the "test" clause of
the project, which will ensure that gems are present before running (installing
them if necessary) before running specs. There is currently no way to specify
gem version.
* Uses ci_reporter to generate JUnit-like XML reports; assumes that they may be
useful (perhaps in conjunction with the junit:report task); but it's not
strictly necessary.
