This is not Watir related, but it is about testing in Ruby. I am just wondering how others are testing e-mail digest. I used to do it manually, and now I would like to make a script. I have to test daily, weekly and monthly digest.
Three options come to mind: 1) Simple, but slow. Change digest option for user and wait. I would like that my tests do not need a month to run in some cases. 2) Change system time. I would like to avoid that. 3) Add an option in configuration file. That option tells application to check date from database, not from system time. Then change date in database. Another option is useful - how often is application checking if digest should be sent. One minute sounds good. My developer actually implemented this. I could probably make the third option work in Ruby. I have not worked with databases yet, but I hope it would not be too hard. I just wonder if there is a more simple way. I would appreciate your suggestions and experiences. -- ÂŽeljko Filipin zeljkofilipin.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted via Jive Forums http://forums.openqa.org/thread.jspa?threadID=6710&messageID=19283#19283 _______________________________________________ Wtr-general mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
