Ryan Davis came up with the idea of a "functional test matrix": http://blog.zenspider.com/archives/2007/04/functional_test_matrix.html borrowing the spreadsheet idea from FIT.. Anyways, I have been trying to think of a way to apply something similar in conjunction with stories... Maybe generate and run stories based off a matrix for access control reasons?
Does this give any one some ideas? -Ben _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
