The following is only valid when the Ruby plugin is installed and enabled.
The theory states that you could start with the BDD cycle and spiral into to the TDD cycle. Add a feature spec, then add a controller spec, a view spec, a model spec, implement each piece, then start over. That's the safe route. Most people don't.
Using RSpec in Rails application requires rspec-rails gem to be added to your project. In doing so the dependent
rspec
gem is added to the project automatically. When the rspec-rails gem is added, the corresponding generator rspec:install
appears in the list of available generators.IntelliJ IDEA supports rspec-rails gem version 2.12.0 and later.
When RSpec support is enabled in a Rails application, IntelliJ IDEA provides:
- Generation of RSpec testing infrastructure.
- RSpec-specific code completion:
- Usage of Zeus server.
Depending on your particular version of Rails, different workflows are possible. If you are using Rails 3.0 and later, it is recommended to use the bundler and specify rspec-rails gem in the Gemfile. Thus, IntelliJ IDEA suggests the following workflow:
To use rspec, follow these general steps
- Make sure that the required gems are installed.
- In the Gemfile, add the following line:
- Generate the RSpec testing infrastructure. To do that, pressAlt+Insert, choose Run Rails Generator on the popup menu, start typing the
rspec
generator name, and chooserspec:install
from the list:In the Setup RSpec Support dialog, specify the generator options. The respective script is executed, and displays its output in the console tab of the Run tool window. - Generate the test templates same way as the other Rails application elements.
- Run or debug your spec.If you are using the bundler, make sure that in the RSpec run/debug configuration the checkbox Run the script in context of the bundle is selected.
Note that you can execute all tests in a folder, specific test script, or individual examples in a script.- To execute all tests in a folder, in the Project tool window right-click the folder that contains specs, and choose Run: All specs in <folder name> from the context menu.
- To execute a test script, right-click the spec in the Project tool window, or open this spec in the editor and right-click somewhere outside individual examples. Then choose Run <spec name>. from the context menu.
- To execute an individual example, open the desired spec in the editor, right-click the example to be executed, and choose Run <Spec name><example name>.
