Best Open Source IDE for Ruby & Cucumber

[jenkins]

I am planning to use Ruby & Cucumber. The other testing tools used
in this conjuction will be Watir, Celerity, RAutomation etc.,

Please suggest the best Open Source IDE
Aptana
Eclipse
NetBeans
OR
any other IDE

The primary features Iam looking for is good re-factoring support and
auto completion on both Ruby & Cucumber Feature Editors.

Are you also working in Rails?. If so my best advice is RubyMine it is not free by worth the investment. I have played with all you mentioned and regarding cuke support and refactoring RubyMine is much much better. You really need a faster machine and big screen. I am wating for iMac 27

my five cents

Cheers

Omar

I am not intending to use Rails...
Web App Development is done in Java...

Ruby Watir & Cucumber is to be used by Business Analysts and
Testers...
In this context suggest a good IDE....

I am right now trying with Netbeans...
but not able to get the autocomplete for Watir APIs

Thanks

Have a look at this video (on using cucumber )

http://www.jetbrains.com/ruby/demos/rubymine_cucumber_testing.html

also you can have a full version free for a month.

RAM and SPEED are like money. the more the better. And the minimum is a very personal taste. Give it a try

Good luck

Just so you know... Netbeans stopped their Ruby support earlier this year. So your prob better off using something else. Aptana RadRails is pretty decent for a free IDE. But RubyMine is awesome if you are willing to pay for it.

Hope this helps,

+1 on RubyMine. It's not that expensive, compared to your time and
your sanity. I've used it on some non-rails projects.

[jenkins]

I have successfully installed Aptana Studio 3, build:
3.0.2.201106082310 and able to run normal ruby applications, which
uses api's related to watir...

However the watir api's are not shown in the autocomplete....

Also while running cucumber feature file through "Commands->Cucumber-
>Run Feature", the following error is shown

$ ruby script/cucumber C:\b\features\addition.feature
c:\Ruby192\bin\ruby.exe: No such file or directory -- script/cucumber
(LoadError)

However on the console command prompt if I give, the following
$ cucumber C:/b/features/addition.feature

Then the feature runs perfectly fine. { I have made two changes;
instead of ruby script/cucumber....., I have given just cucumber;
another change is instead of the backslash '\', I have given forward
slash '/'

Any pointers to the above, will help me to proceed further....


Thanks
Jenkins

Hi, guys

I've created a little tool that can be useful for running cucumber tests at least. 

https://github.com/dluchko/peascripter

Peascripter is a command manager that allows you run any command strings in defined order, enable and disable strings, create presets and watch running processes in Terminal.

Peascripter is a free open source project written in Ruby language using Shoes user interface tool kit.

Just type into peascripter rows all bash commands needed for running your tests and save its preset. So you will be able to load preset in seconds, immediately change conditions, run your tests and watch results.

Regards,

Dmytro
