After changing text in "it" block -e and -l options not working

Testing RSpec
1

hi guys !
I am pretty new to rspec and I am still learning.
I tried to change the text in “it” block and then run the rspec with -e
and
-l flag with appropriate values.

But it dint work.

What i can think of is rspec must have stored the earlier information
which
is not updated.

here is what i got

C:\work>jruby -S rspec specification\xyz\install_spec.rb -l 105
Run filtered using {:line_number=>105}
F

Failures:

  1. #POST_OPERATIONS should stop machine
    Failure/Error: if not $pre_arr.has_key?(k.to_s) then
    NoMethodError:
    undefined method `has_key?’ for “0”:String

    ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:26:in `get_id’

    ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:25:in `each’

    ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:25:in `get_id’

    ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:60

    ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:106:in `call’

    ./specification/xyz/install_spec.rb:106

    :1

Finished in 4.41 seconds
1 example, 1 failure

RSpec does not do anything like that between runs.

Are you saying you had a passing example at first, and then you changed
it, and then it failed? What was the content of the example (the “it”
block) before and after the change?
