Hi
Hope this isn't OT. I'm currently contemplating using the Dojo[1]
JavaScript framework, and I suspect it's powerful enough that using
Cucumber features and Celerity alone will quickly leave me wanting
lower-level unit specs for the JS.
So I just wondered if anyone here has used Screw.Unit[2], and if
so, how does it compare to RSpec? It seems to offer many of the
features of RSpec (with the notable exception of shared behaviours).
I'm also interested in this, as we're currently deciding which route
to go.
I like the philosophy behind screw unit - it feels like the team want
to give us RSpec for javascript. One of the things that has irritated
me (and generally does with javascript unit testing) is that running
the tests is quite slow and requires selenium. I did a little spike to
run them via celerity instead:

3. I haven't looked very hard, but I haven't found a plain text
runner yet. Obviously it's going to need a browser if you're
planning on doing DOM interaction (which is very easy). For me,
though, a plain text runner would be awsome.
Do you mean a story-runner that just works on the javascript / HTML,
as opposed to running the full stack including the server-side?
