如何运行Ruby gem的规格？

Question

I have forked a ruby gem and made some updates. I need to run the gem tests and add my new tests and ensure all tests are succeeding.

The forked ruby gem is using rspec tests. How can I run these test?

Answer 1

Usually rake is sufficient to run all the tests, regardless of whether they're RSpec, Cucumber, etc. If you want to invoke RSpec directly try running rspec spec instead, or if the gem is using an unconventionally named test directory, just use rspec <directory_name> .

Note: Most new gems these days use Bundler to manage dependencies, so if you don't have the appropriate dependencies and there's a Gemfile in the root, then run "bundle install" first to get them. Then run with bundle exec ... (eg, bundle exec rspec spec ).
