What are some good videos, articles, ebooks, etc for learning Cucumber and RSpec?
I’m aware of the PeepCode screencasts and The RSpec Book from Pragmatic, but wasn’t sure if there were any other solid resources.
The great thing about the Ruby community is the willingness to share; of course there are the companies like O’Reilly and Red Dirt that don’t give away their videos so I don’t buy their products any more and/or won’t go to their conferences.
Here are some videos specifically about Cucumber and RSpec:
BDD with Cucumber
Cucumber: Automating the Requirements Language You Already Speak
Behaviour Driven Development with RSpec
Working Outside-in with Cucumber and RSpec
Beyond Test Driven Development: Behaviour Driven Development
Some general videos about TDD/BDD:
Test-Driven Development and Refactoring – Part One
Test-Driven Development and Refactoring – Part Two
One of the best free videos on the Ruby Object model
(I bought the Pragmatic series on metaprogramming after seeing this):
The Ruby Object Model – Dave Thomas
Here are some sites I’ve gotten some great videos off of:

Oh, and don’t forget Google videos.
And here’s a great little blog post with links to 20 articles on Cucumber:
