Category: `gem install` command Group: None Status: Open Resolution: Accepted Priority: 3 Submitted By: Ryan Davis (zenspider) Assigned to: Ryan Davis (zenspider) Summary: Remove -t from gem install Initial Comment: this is a message body. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Luis Lavena (luislavena) Date: 2010-11-13 11:27 Message: Yes please. Lot of projects do testing differently. Even if you declare all the development dependencies it also depend on certain tools or certain services been installed in the user machine. These are not self contained. If the user wants to run tests, then look for the source, clone/checkout and follow the developer instructions. That is more easy than maintain a command that cannot solve all the aspects of "testing" a gem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: John Barnette (jbarnette) Date: 2010-11-13 11:00 Message: I think -t should die. Other folks? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Chad Woolley (thewoolleyman) Date: 2009-12-03 13:29 Message: I meant a property in the gem spec which would point to an executable test suite script - e.g. spec.test_script = test/test_suite.rb. If this property existed, it would be used and the return code from the script would indicate test success/failure. May be overkill and not worth modifying the spec; it was just an idea to allow people to use any testing framework they want. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Berger (djberg96) Date: 2009-12-03 05:15 Message: Chad, what do you mean by a "test suite script"? I was thinking a -r option to run the 'test' Rake task, if it exists. I also realized that the approach suggested won't work for rspec, for example, because simply requiring an rspec test script doesn't generate any output. It looks like it assumes you're always running 'spec' from the command line directly.

And/or add an additional spec parameter for a test suite script... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Daniel Berger (djberg96) Date: 2009-12-01 23:45 Message: Is there a reason we can't just make -t run "ruby -I spec.lib spec.test_files" ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=575&aid=27507&group_id=126 _______________________________________________ Rubygems-developers mailing list http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems Rubygems-developers@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
