Question

While I develop, I would like to see sinatra app exceptions when running tests, cosider example:

require 'sinatra/base'

class ExceptionWeb < Sinatra::Base
  enable :raise_errors
  enable :dump_errors
  configure do 
    enable :dump_errors
  end
  get "/" do
    raise "hell"
    "ok"
  end
  def self.bad_method
    raise "bad method"    
  end
end


require 'rack/test'

describe 'The Web interface' do
  include Rack::Test::Methods

  def app
    ExceptionWeb
  end
  it "should error out" do
    get "/"
    #puts last_response.errors
    #ExceptionWeb.bad_method
    #last_response.should be_ok
  end
end

Following rspec code shows no exceptions at all, if I uncomment last_response, then I see something is wrong, but I don’t see what was wrong.

But calling mad_method shows me exception.

And adding puts last_response.errors to every test doesn’t look proper.

I tried sinatra config options raise_errors and dump_errors but that doesn’t help me much.

Any ideas?

This is combination of options that must be used and then it works.

set :raise_errors, true
set :dump_errors, false
set :show_exceptions, false
