I have been following your tutorial but am receiving the ECONNREFUSED error despite the sauce saying that it has been connected. Any ideas?

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8730318/selenium-driven-testing-with-sauce-connect-failing-to-connect

I use Selenium RC for testing with Ruby language in Mac OS. Right now,I try to run the script following command will get the error:
$spec file_name.rb
-bash: spec: command not found

Anything I need to install? Right now,I already install Ruby,Rspec,Rials and so on.

In my old computer,use “spec” to run the script is fine.

Any help will be very appreciate.

Thanks.

I have followed your instructions to the letter and
I get a similar error

NoMethodError in ‘People before(:all)’
undefined method `closed?’ for nil:NilClass
./spec/integration/people_spec.rb:14:

line 14 is “@browser.start”

I’m running rails 2.3.8

I can write Rspec, Webrat and Cucumber tests okay but Boy, would I like to get selenium tests running with Rspec

I would really appreciate your help with this

Cheers

Thanks for catching that! Please let me know if that works for you, and if there’s any other issue that comes up.

And good question about grafting tests onto pre-existing rails models. For RSpec unit tests where you’re familiar with the inner-workings of the code, you’ll want to add in tests for each of the methods of your models, and then move onto functional/integration tests. If you’re new to the code, it often works better the other way around. Get a bird’s-eye view of the code by looking at its function and verifying the application as a whole, and work your way into the nitty-gritty with unit tests.

It’s an interesting question, I think I’ll have to follow up with a few posts on that.

Thanks for this tutorial. I’m almost there, but I’m getting this error when I try to run ‘rake spec:integration’

1)
NoMethodError in ‘People before(:all)’
undefined method `start’ for nil:NilClass

I didn’t do the generate/plugin step. Instead I just did ‘gem install selenium-rails’. Here is my list of installed gems:

actionmailer (2.3.5)
actionpack (2.3.5)
activerecord (2.3.5)
activeresource (2.3.5)
activesupport (2.3.5)
gemcutter (0.5.0)
hoe (2.5.0)
json_pure (1.2.2)
mocha (0.9.8)
mysql (2.8.1)
rack (1.1.0, 1.0.1)
rails (2.3.5)
rake (0.8.7)
RedCloth (4.2.3)
rspec (1.3.0)
rspec-rails (1.3.2)
rubyforge (2.0.4)
rubygems-update (1.3.6)
Selenium (1.1.14)
selenium-client (1.2.18)
selenium-rails (0.0.3)
sqlite3-ruby (1.2.5)
test-unit (1.2.3)

Sorry if I’m missing something obvious. I’m still getting started with all this. Also, if I already have several models, controllers, views, etc. created using the normal rails scaffold, what is the best approach to go back and add rspec tests?
