This is how I felt when I moved from CF to rails. I learned so much from the first few apps I created, but testing was something that didn't come easy to me. Now that I've found cucumber, testing is a cinch. Here's a typical feature/test file.
https://gist.github.com/a93604daf3408729357d It's amazing to me how natural the language feels. It's very easy to stub out exactly how you app should act and then program it to do exactly that. It's cut out a lot of the analysis paralysis that I used to suffer from. It's also amazing to me how good it feels to have an app that's got a full test suite -- so now, I *know* that when I add a feature, it's not screwing up some other piece of code.
