I just had the same challenge with a SOAP client I'm building that hits a fairly complicated service. My solution was to generate a dummy SOAP server that accepts the right calls and returns the right kinds of dummy answers. Since I used the wsdl2ruby script (part of the soap4r gem) to create a client skeleton from the WSDL file, creating a server skeleton was just another command line. I added a few lines to spec_helper.rb to start the server and override the client code's service URL, and now I just fill out the return values from the server methods as part of writing my specs for each feature. -- Have Fun, Steve Eley (sfe...@gmail.com) ESCAPE POD - The Science Fiction Podcast Magazine http://www.escapepod.org _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users
