Question

I am running Rails 3 Beta2 and attempting to get Autotest working with rspec.

When I run autospec, I receive the following message:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:334:in `bin_path': can't find executable autospec for rspec-2.0.0.beta.5 (Gem::Exception) from /usr/local/bin/autospec:19

I am using Ruby 1.9.1 with the following Gems:

rails (3.0.0.beta2)
railties (3.0.0.beta2)
rspec (2.0.0.beta.5)
rspec-core (2.0.0.beta.5)
rspec-expectations (2.0.0.beta.5)
rspec-mocks (2.0.0.beta.5)
rspec-rails (2.0.0.beta.5)
ZenTest (4.3.1)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This blog post sorted me out: http://blog.davidchelimsky.net/2010/03/15/rspec-2-and-autotest/

autospec is deprecated in favour of autotest with some extra config.

In “./autotest/discover.rb” in the root of the project simply add:

Autotest.add_discovery { "rspec2" }
