I'm starting to hate some aspects of Ruby. When I run gem update something is broken. For example currently I'm fighting with sequel. 3.0.0 is backward incompatible. Migration guide put on website? Nowhere. examples folder? Forget. IRC? Hardly anyone there. There is spec/ (RSpec) folder. It tends to be used as documentation, right? I noticed the columns method that seemed to do what I need. When I tried to use it stated I've gave wrong no of args. Wonderful - it was redefined in spec helper. Just fantastic - no real example even in specification. Forget about googling as well - 2.6.x only. uzytkownik — about 1 year ago
RSpec is a BDD tool and a framework which provides programmers with a Domain Specific Language to describe the behaviour of Ruby code with readable, executable examples that guide you in the design process and serve well as both documentation and tests.

jason: maybe rspec is not exactly what I was looking for to use with ruby-elf, but now that I ported ruby-bombe's testsuite to that, I certainly can see its usefulness... the verbose output is perfect to make sure I do check what I need to check Flameeyes — about 1 year ago

Makes Rails testing even better
All I can say is that RSpec makes testing your Rails app even easier. Seeing as how Rails came with by far the best built-in testing framework I've ever seen, that's saying a lot.
If you've been using Test::Unit tests for a while, and you've built up a large suite, then you have a tough choice to make. Migrating to RSpec will require you to rewrite a lot of code.
However, if you're starting out new, get RSpec now and don't look back.
