How to get that inside your rake test script? > Apparently putting the dirname in the require can cause all sorts of > issues that I do not understand and we just have to put up with it. ( > I don't mean we have to put up with not understanding it). require '../foo' and require '../../bar/foo' will both load foo.rb twice. This is usually not what you want, but it's a simplification in the current require system. Because all unit tests should run in the same VM, the ones in different folders will load test_helper again. Won't this fix it? $:.unshift File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../' require 'test_helper' Then the second occurrence of require 'test_helper' will not load twice, even if (on some dementedly configured system), the require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../test_helper' could have instead loaded a different one. -- Phlip --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
