Stories ======= Stories and User Acceptance Tests for Test::Unit. Description ----------- Write user stories and user acceptace tests using Contest, the tiny add on to Test::Unit that provides nested contexts and declarative tests. Usage ----- Declare your stories as follows: require 'stories' class UserStoryTest < Test::Unit::TestCase story "As a user I want to create stories so I can test if they pass" do setup do @user = "valid user" end scenario "A valid user" do assert_equal "valid user", @user end end end If you are using Rails, you can use stories for your integration tests with Webrat: require "stories" class UserStoriesTest < ActionController::IntegrationTest story "As a user I want to log in so that I can access restricted features" do setup do @user = User.spawn end scenario "Using good information" do visit "/" click_link "Log in" fill_in :session_email, :with => user.email fill_in :session_password, :with => user.password click_button "Sign in" assert_not_contain "Log in" assert_not_contain "Sign up" end end end You can run it normally, it's Test::Unit after all. If you want to run a particular test, say "yet more tests", try this: $ testrb my_test.rb -n test_yet_more_tests Or with a regular expression: $ testrb my_test.rb -n /yet_more_tests/ Installation ------------ $ gem sources -a http://gems.github.com (you only have to do this once) $ sudo gem install citrusbyte-stories If you want to use it with Rails, add this to config/environment.rb: config.gem "citrusbyte-stories", :lib => 'stories', :source => 'http://gems.github.com' Then you can vendor the gem: rake gems:install rake gems:unpack License ------- Copyright (c) 2009 Damian Janowski and Michel Martens for Citrusbyte Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
