Run specs without acceptance

[Daniel Lopes]

Today we have rake spec:acceptance or rake spec. Most of the times I
want to run all my model/helper/controller specs without the
acceptance because acceptance is slower than the others. But I can't
found a good way to this without develop my own. Maybe it could be
shiped with Steak.

What do you guys think about a rake task to run the specs without the
acceptance? Or maybe exlude acceptance from the default rake spec.

Thanks

Maybe you could add the following rake task to your project:

spec_prereq = Rails.configuration.generators.options[:rails][:orm] == :active_record ? "db:test:prepare" : :noop

patterns    = [:requests, :models, :controllers, :views, :helpers, :mailers, :lib, :routing]

namespace :spec do

  desc "Run the code examples not in spec/acceptance"

  RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new("no_acceptance" => spec_prereq) do |t|

    t.pattern = patterns.map { |sub| "./spec/#{sub}/**/*_spec.rb" }

  end

end

And run:

rake spec:no_acceptance

Thanks Paco, it's very similar to what I started to do. Don't you think that something like this could be packaged inside Steak?

Daniel,

Maybe If we could exclude the acceptance directory, Steak not have to know about which directories rspec-rails use. Anyway is too easy too create this task
