Qspec

Qspec makes rspec test fast. Q is for queue and quick.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'qspec'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install qspec

Additional Installation

You can use spork to cut the overhead of Qspec startup. Use 1.0. Old spork does not detect Qspec.

  gem 'spork', '~> 1.0rc'

If you are on rails, remember to add spork-rails too.

By default, qspec uses file based inter-process communication. This is poorly implemented and becomes a burden.

We recommend to use redis.

• Setting up redis-server with default port
• Add redis gem to your Gemfile
• Specify redis for IPC method in .qspec.yml

Usage

Installing this gem adds qspec and qspec-helper commands.

Setup

$ bundle exec qspec-helper init
# edit .qspec.yml

Run spec

bundle exec qspec spec/

Run with spork

bundle exec qspec-helper spork
bundle exec qspec spec/

Configuration

All configuration is done through .qspec.yml. qspec-helper init will generate the template, but there are more options.

redis

This option is given to redis's constructor. See redis-rb/README.md for more details.

redis:
    host: localhost
    port: 6379
    namespace: qspec
    driver: hiredis
