Spork plugin for rails

Spork Rails¶ ↑

This plugin is for running spork in Ruby-on-Rails applications.

Version compatibility map:¶ ↑

Versions correspond to the latest Rails minor release. Gem is backwards compatible with rails as far as it makes sense to.

• spork-rails 3.2.0: Rails 3.0.0 - 3.2.x

Usage:¶ ↑

Add to your Gemfile:

gem "spork-rails"

# (Since spork-rails depends on spork, it is not necessary to put both spork and spork-rails in your Gemfile)

INSTALL:¶ ↑

NOTICE: If using spork with rails, use the spork-rails gem.

bundler:¶ ↑

Add to your Gemfile:

gem 'spork-rails'

Usage¶ ↑

From a terminal, change to your project directory.

Then, bootstrap your test helper file. If running rspec,

spork rspec --bootstrap

Cucumber:

spork cucumber --bootstrap

TestUnit:

(Install the spork-testunit gem)
spork test_unit --bootstrap

(If you don’t specifiy a test framework, spork will find one and pick it.)

Follow the instructions.

Finally, run spork. A spec DRb server will be running!
