I was very confused first as well. It didn't make any point to me and I'm not using it at all. As far as I know, I take it as an optional tool to go nuts with views when needed. I will use it when some stuff in view becomes super important to be there. However as an one-band project I haven't feel this need yet. Second thing is about how you like to develop your stuff. As far as I know David start with Story -> Views -> controller -> model. I prefer to go this way: Story -> model/controller -> views. So now you might guess why specing views are nice thing when you go David's way up-to-down. Anyhow, mocking in controllers (and in views) makes much more sense now with story runner in the big picture. General stuff 'does it work at all' goes to story runner and specific low level stuff goes to spec. So it's up to you if you care about low level stuff in views. One thing what I still don't like so much is that rspec "force" you to develop things super vertically or otherwise your mocks will be out of sync very quickly. Correct me if I'm wrong !!! Oki, Priit PS. somehow autotest does not pick up stories to run. I haven't yet investigate it why. _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
