TDD

When I'm using autospec to test a non-Rails Ruby project, I always have trouble getting my tests to show up red or green.

When I run a regular 'spec spec/ --color' command I get normal red/green responses. I've tried putting all sorts of commands in the .autotest file and I can't get that to work.

Also, in my Rails projects, I don't get this problem.

Note: I do have the ZenTest(4.2.1) and redgreen (1.2.2) gems installed. I'm currently trying to get it working with this project: http://github.com/coreyhaines/kata-number-to-led

How do I get autotest (ZenTest) to see my namespaced stuff?

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
Autotest is supposed to map my tests to a class, I believe. When I have class Foo and class FooTest, autotest should see FooTest and say, "Hey, this test corresponds to the unit Foo, so I'll look for changes there and re-run tests when changes occur." And that works, however... When I have Foo::Bar… >>> More

How can I tell autotest to not rerun all tests unless I explicitly tell it to?

Autotest will rerun all tests every time my tests start passing when they were failing. I have a lot of tests, and for reasons I won't go into, rerunning all of them is painfully slow. How can I make it so autotest will never rerun all tests unless I Ctrl-C? >>> More
