$ autotest
loading autotest/rails_rspec
/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby -S

(rdb:1) user = User.new
Adjusting would put us beyond the oldest (initial) frame.
(rdb:1) user.email = "test"
Adjusting would put us beyond the oldest (initial) frame.
(rdb:1) user.should_not be_valid
Adjusting would put us beyond the oldest (initial) frame.
