That might be cool if it doesn't limit your choice of testing framework. 
My guess would be that having something so integrated into the IDE 
likely locks to into whatever test framework the IDE vendor decided to 
use. But, if it's flexible enough to provide choice of framework then I 
could see it maybe saving a few keystrokes. Not that big of a deal to me 
though. I mean how hard is it really to type def my_method ... end. And 
then likely have to move the generated method so that I keep my class 
files organized as I like.
