Andrew, I've actually read allot of the book (but admittedly I brushed over the cucumber sections), but I was confused at this point.
I understand the outside in development, etc. What I was confused at was if the two technologies actually integrate at some point. i.e. if you run cucumber, will it go and run spec's for you also? Correct me if I am wrong, but the cucumber step definitions do indeed use webrat to hit the pages and verify things in the view pages correct?
