Helps

  • Jasmine Gem HEAD and undefined JSON

We’re trying to use the latest jasmine with ci_reporter, and jasmine complains that json is undefined. We’re unclear why it would disappear with an additional task being loaded?

Anyone seen this before?

Running “rake && rake jasmine:ci” should fix this

  • Anyone have experience writing FFI in Ruby?

Interestings

  • Capybara Webkit on Lobot

If you’ve successfully installed Qt >= 4.6 on CI, Jenkins might fail because bundler is unable to build capybara-webkit, raising the following error in the log:

[code]
Installing capybara-webkit (0.12.1) with native extensions
Gem::Installer::ExtensionBuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
[/code]

If this happens, ensure that you have qmake in your PATH, since it is needed by the capybara-webkit build script.

  • Version 1.2.1 of the Jasmine gem is out

  • Be sure to close your connections inside an Enumerator

Since the block in an Enumerator has its own Thread context and thus connection, be sure to close it at the end od the block.
