Yeah - actually I saw it, and tried it out. Although I can't lie - it didn't work well. I can't imagine any translator really working well. How would you add mocks + stubs + clear specifications + 1 test-per-spec in a translator, and do it intelligently? But, for what it's worth - it did what I expected it to do, and would be a good, but crude way, to translate a lot test::unit code to rspec. Thanks for the tool (and have you looked into the old rspec one - test2spec, I believe it was called)?
