    I am able to run mini-test, test::unit and rspec tests on cloud9.
    I think the error you are getting is either due to spork or trying to use drb (with guard or something)

    I tried to get this to work as well, but I couldn’t get spork to bind to $PORT, and it seems like you are not allowed to bind to any other port.

    I also couldn’t get guard to work properly. It would see that the files changed, but when it came to running the specs, I got errors about Unknown switches -f -r -out. Research on that pointed to bundler, and possibly needing to wrap commands in quotes before sending them out to the system. (maybe)

    If you get rid of any drb or spork related stuff, I bet your tests will work.
