Screencast: Testing Flex Apps with Cucumber - Take 2
I was not really happy with last week's screencast I did on testing Flex with Cucumber. Effectively doing screencast is not an easy endeavor and trying to it myself is making me appreciate all the other screencast I watch so much more. So last week I just wasn't comfortable while I recorded it, not sure why, but I thought I should try to capture it again. And the second time around I felt better, maybe I should alway take two takes (or even more :-). So here is the new one...
Screencast: Testing Flex Apps with Cucumber - Take 2 from daniel wanja.
To run this code you need to have all the gems installed. So config your Rails to run Cucumber with FunFx (in config/environments/test.rb):
config.gem "rspec", :lib => false, :version => ">= 1.2.7"
config.gem "rspec-rails", :lib => false, :version => ">= 1.2.7"
config.gem "webrat", :lib => false, :version => ">= 0.4.4"
config.gem "cucumber", :lib => false
config.gem "funfx"
config.gem "safariwatir"
Config Cucumber to have @flex available (in features/support/env.rb)
require 'funfx'
require 'funfx/browser/safariwatir'
browser = Watir::Safari.new
browser.goto("http://localhost:3000")
Before do
@flex = browser.flex_app('flashContent', 'flashContent')
end
at_exit do
browser.close
end
In the same file disable transactional fixtures
Cucumber::Rails.use_transactional_fixtures
Ensure that your Flex application is compiled with the funfx library and the automation library linked in.
