As Pat said I would avoid mocking/stubbing, you want your cucumber tests to cut through all the layers of your app including touching the database. As for setting up the data, I tend not to use fixtures (I only want to have the data created for certain tests). Instead I save the relevant models in the Given steps, preparing for the feature test. If you are going to repeat the given steps a lot I would extract the model set-up into a ruby function and reuse this. -- Joseph Wilk http://www.joesniff.co.uk -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
