Standup for the Ides of March

Help

  • One team is starting to use Sunspot and is curious about testing strategies. Sunspot provides a method that stubs out the backend, but search blocks aren’t executed, so it’s hard to test actual searching.

  • Objective C needs a BDD framework. How does Xcode magically know about OCunit? We need to hook in there to have a usable framework.

Interesting

  • Mountain West Ruby Conf was awesome.

    Regarding testing Sunspot, it’s a problem we’ve been fighting a little. One of the other devs here did a bit of a writeup of how he implemented testing (after inventing our own very special and very scary way of doing it). Here it is: http://lexer.tumblr.com/post/439872853/expectations-on-method-calls-within-a-block-in-rspec
