Hi
I promised a friend of mine I’d help update his online store. To get
something up fast, I thought I’d try Substruct. But I can’t make
rspec specs run with it installed.
I’ve got the 1.2 RC 1 gem installed, and my environment.rb starts
“module Engines; EdgeRails = true; end”
I’ve succuessfully installed Engines and Substruct, got the database
set up, and managed to rub Webrick and log in to the admin section.
So the app seems fine.
I generated a controller with “script/generate rspec_controller
stock_list_import”, but I can’t run it. rspec dies with the error
below. This is the exact same error I had before I configured
everything correctly (if I remember right, before I set the EdgeRails
constant in Engines).
I don’t understand why SubstructApplicationController is not
available to the spec, because:
- the spec requires spec/spec_helper
- spec/spec_helper requires config/environment
- config/environment requires config/boot AND calls
Engines.start :substruct
surely this is near enough the same as booting Webrick?
Any ideas why it doesn’t work? And before anyone asks, I’m an rspec
whore. Using Test::Unit IS out of the question 
(not that I’ve
tried that anyway)
