lol its Friday and time for some nerd rails humor - I was thinking about submitting a patch to core - http://is.gd/bp6F
@lmarburger I am very guilty of not properly testing my views-plan to use Webrat and Cucumber in my next project. have mocked helper methods
@lmarburger have you looked at WebRat and/or cucumber - I've heard great things
@lmarburger to be honest most of the time I'm just using regular expressions - it just seems more natural to me
@lmarburger that is a much better implementation - thanks
For those that test helpers regularly, would appreciate your +1 on this http://is.gd/baCR
@jankowski - I did but in a different place - here's what I put in my test_helper to hack around it - http://gist.github.com/34737
after a tour of the rails core I found the culprit in my own test_helper - if you're interested I commented this out: http://is.gd/b9Oa
@lmarburger @jankowski would you mind just commenting on that ticket to show it's not an isolated problem? thanks!
more details on the helper test issue I'm experiencing: http://is.gd/b9v4
@hardbap I did and I've been able to get by for the most part - my link_to method appears to use the wrong url_for in core, might be a bug
honestly why is testing helpers still difficult in Rails?
@ky - classy! get an Irish Coffee it's the best I've ever had
@croaky, @tsaleh good thinking! I hope it's a successful initiative for you guys
has anyone else had problems using link_to and helper tests in Rails 2.2.2? seems to be using the wrong url_for method
I <3 the new PDF viewer in GMail - no more crazy attachment management
@techpickles - I have no doubt you'll persevere - keep your head up man
blech - login prompts are beginning to look like those redonculous Add This! widgets - https://rpxnow.com/
5 seconds away from cancelling my E*Trade account - how hard is a bank transfer?
