    Scenario: one registration shows as 1%
       Given a goal of 200 registrations
       When 1 attendee registers
       Then the goal should be 1% achieved
    
    

    Hmmmm!?

    <p>Fuzzy math? or lowering expectations?<G></p>

    Hey Rick – thanks for noticing. Some customers like fuzzy math.

    <p>The idea here was that for most cases, go for the straight percentage, but round anything above 0 and less than 1% to 1% so we can see it&#8217;s not 0, and round down 1 less than goal to 99% so it doesn&#8217;t round up to 100% before it&#8217;s done. Fuzzy? Sure. But that&#8217;s the story.</p>

    Hi David.. Great presentation! I hope that RSpec StoryRunner will soon join FIT as the tool of choice for agile integration and acceptance testing, possibly through JRuby and (eventually) IronRuby.

    Hi David! Thank you very much for sharing. I will use your material for my presentation of RSpec at XP Day France 2008

    <p>I&#8217;d like to react to your list of <span class="caps">CONS</span> about Selenium-RC.</p>
    
    
    <p>You might have a look and /or give a try to <a href="http://selenium-grid.openqa.org/">selenium-grid</a> by  Philippe Hanrigou, a Thoughtworker. It runs selenium tests on parrallel on different machines, hence going much more faster than Selenium-RC!</p>
    
    
    <p>Maybe not as fast as Webrat though &#8230;</p>
