rake task

RSpec ships with a rake task with a number of useful options

Scenarios
  1. default options with passing spec (prints command and exit status is 0)
  2. default options with failing spec (exit status is 1)
  3. fail_on_error = false with failing spec (exit status is 0)
  4. rspec_opts is specified in order to pass args to the rspec command
  5. rspec_opts is specified using arguments to the rake task
default options with passing spec (prints command and exit status is 0)
Given
a file named "Rakefile" with: 
require 'rspec/core/rake_task'

RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new(:spec)

task :default => :spec
And
a file named "spec/thing_spec.rb" with: 
describe "something" do
  it "does something" do
    # pass
  end
end
When
I run rake
Then
the output should match /(ruby|rbx) -S rspec/
Then
the exit status should be 0
default options with failing spec (exit status is 1)
Given
a file named "Rakefile" with: 
require 'rspec/core/rake_task'

RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new(:spec)

  it "does something" do
    fail
  end

fail_on_error = false with failing spec (exit status is 0)

rspec_opts is specified in order to pass args to the rspec command
Given
a file named "Rakefile" with: 
require 'rspec/core/rake_task'

RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new(:spec) do |t|
  t.rspec_opts = "--tag fast"
end
And
a file named "spec/thing_spec.rb" with: 
describe "something" do
  it "has a tag", :fast => true do
    # pass
  end

  it "does not have a tag" do
    fail
  end
end
When
I run rake spec
Then
the exit status should be 0
Then
the output should match: 
(ruby|rbx) -S rspec ./spec/thing_spec.rb --tag fast
rspec_opts is specified using arguments to the rake task
Given
a file named "Rakefile" with: 
require 'rspec/core/rake_task'

RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new(:spec, :tag) do |t, task_args|
  t.rspec_opts = "--tag #{task_args[:tag]}"
end
And
a file named "spec/thing_spec.rb" with: 
describe "something" do
  it "has a tag", :fast => true do
    # pass
  end

  it "does not have a tag" do
    fail
  end
end
When
I run rake spec[fast]
Then
the exit status should be 0
Then
the output should match: 
(ruby|rbx) -S rspec ./spec/thing_spec.rb --tag fast
