There's a book put out by Pragmatic Programmers called "Everyday Scripting with Ruby" [1] which I'd recommend.
The title's a bit misleading, it should really be called something like "Learn Ruby and Test Driven Development". Maybe it's a bit basic for experienced programmers, but it does have exercises, which are always handy for learning a new language. The books uses Test::Unit, there's also a book about RSpec and Cucumber [2] which I haven't had time to look at yet.
