unless File.directory? File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../vendor/mocha-0.4.0/'However, now I'm wondering if Rails should depend on, and include Mocha.
raise "mocha 4.0 is required to run the test suite. create the 'vendor' directory as
a sibling of test and 'gem unpack mocha' in 'vendor'"
end
$:.unshift File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../vendor/mocha-0.4.0/lib/'
require File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../vendor/mocha-0.4.0/lib/mocha'
I've previously written that I think xUnit frameworks should include Mocks. Since Rails bakes in testing, I believe it should provide you with the full array of testing tools, including Mocks.
Thoughts?
I absolutely agree.
ReplyDeleteSounds good to me.
ReplyDeleteJay: Are you recommending Rails include Mocha as a gem dependency or that it actually include Mocha in the Rails source tree? I'd strongly recommend the former.
I'm suggesting what you would prefer: Making Mocha a gem dependency of Rails.
ReplyDeleteIn the last three Rails apps I wrote I included Mocha. Seems like a good idea to have it included with Rails, therefore.
ReplyDeleteAt least some versions of activesupport 1.3.1 included flexmock. I don't see it in later versions.
