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

I’d like to react to your list of CONS about Selenium-RC.

You might have a look and /or give a try to selenium-grid by Philippe Hanrigou, a Thoughtworker. It runs selenium tests on parrallel on different machines, hence going much more faster than Selenium-RC!

Maybe not as fast as Webrat though …

Wow! Just Wow. Great examples. Must dust off my step implementations.

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.

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

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’s not 0, and round down 1 less than goal to 99% so it doesn’t round up to 100% before it’s done. Fuzzy? Sure. But that’s the story.

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

Hmmmm!?

Fuzzy math? or lowering expectations?
