Hi All

Need Urgent help regarding updating rspec version from 3.0.0 to 3.1. 

I have updated the version in gemfile, and I did bundle update rspec and then verified it using bundle again. After that when I specify a particular spec, that spec is not executed but other random spec is executed. 
Please let me know what am I doing wrong or am I missing any step?

Thanks

How are you specifying a particular spec? In anycase I recommend upgraded all the way to 3.4, theres been no breaking changes (due to semantic versioning) and a whole heap of bug fixes. The latest version also allows you to specify examples via an ID format which is always specific without relying on line numbers.

I am specifying the spec like: 

APP_HOST=http://www.example.com bundle exec rspec path/spec_name.rb


Also when updating rspec version do I need to update ruby version or any dependency ?

That command would only ever run one file, but that may be any number of specs within that file… Without a specific example it’s hard to help you further. 

You don’t need to update ruby to upgrade rspec and rspec has very few external dependencies.

Yes, I am trying to run a single spec. But the problem is instead of running that single spec it picks up some random spec when I update the rspec version.

No one has reported a bug like that before.  Nothing comes to mind that could be the cause, either.  Can you provide an executable example of the bug?  Without that there's not much we can do because we can't guess what's different about your test suite that causes the problem.

The command you’re saying you are using would never have run just one spec, so can you provide the command your actually using? Otherwise specify the spec like this:

APP_HOST='http://www.example.com' bundle exec rspec path/spec_name.rb:line_number
