Re: [rspec-users] Can I get RSpec NOT to abort rake on failing specs?

At work we've got a rather complex app with both specs and tests.  
Our default rake task runs all our our tests and specs.  We've also  
got separate rake tasks to run groups of tests and specs in the  
various subdirectories.  The default task simply lists all the  
individual tasks as pre-reqs.

We do a lot of branching and merging, so we really want to run all  
of the tests and specs to see all failures.

We just realized that Rspec is aborting rake when a spec fails or  
errors in an individual rake task.  I've been trying to fix this to  
no avail.  I notice that SpecTask has an attribute accessor  
fail_on_error which looks like it SHOULD prevent terminating rake if  
it's set to false.  So I tried that and it doesn't seem to work.   
Here's our projects lib/tasks/spec.rake, any ideas?


def spec_tasks
  %w{spec:controllers spec:models spec:helpers spec:views spec:lib}  
+ spec_subdirs.map {|t| "spec:#{t}"}
end

begin
  require RAILS_ROOT + '/vendor/plugins/rspec/lib/spec/rake/spectask'

  namespace :spec do
   spec_subdirs.each do |task|
     next if Rake::Task.task_defined?("spec:#{task}")

spec:models, views, controllers and helpers are all defined already in  
vendor/plugins/rspec-rails/tasks/rspec.rake, so the next keyword is  
being invoked for all of those. You'll need to undefined them before  
you redefine them here.

spec_tasks.each {|t| Rake::Task::TASKS.delete t}

Cheers,
David
