If you're testing markup (view tests or whatever), take a look at my elementor project[1]. I've found that it makes view testing a lot more expressive, a lot less brittle, and a lot more fun! (Ok, maybe not the last bit). It also uses Nokogiri, so it's much faster than have_tag. 1. http://github.com/nakajima/elementor/tree/master Pat On Tue, Feb 10, 2009 at 3:02 PM, Nathan Wilmes <nat...@pivotallabs.com>wrote: > Hi folks, > > I'm currently in the process of upgrading an old Rails project to the Rails > 2.2.2 and the trunk of RSpec, and ran into several issues with rspec-rails. > I've come up with workarounds for all of them, but I wanted to report them > to hopefully get them into better shape for other folks. > > (1) config.include doesn't work on controller, helper, or view specs if no > :type parameter is required. > > config.include sends an include to RailsExampleGroup.
