rbiphonetest - Unit Test iPhone apps with Ruby¶ ↑

DESCRIPTION:¶ ↑

Want to write iPhone apps with unit tests? Want to write them in Ruby?

FEATURES/PROBLEMS:¶ ↑

  • Installs a Ruby-based unit testing framework into an iPhone/Objective-C/Xcode project

  • Provides generators to create Objective-C classes with associated Ruby tests

  • Uses RubyCocoa to bridge between Ruby tests and Objective-C via Loadable Bundles

Known issues:

  • Currently only test/unit tests created; rspec etc coming soon

  • Currently only supports Foundation framework, since its common between OS X and iPhone

  • The plan is to mock out all the UIKit.framework classes so they can exist in RubyCocoa land.

  • MacRuby (instead of RubyCocoa) is not yet tested

SYNOPSIS:¶ ↑

  • Create a new iPhone project using Xcode templates

  • Open the terminal

  • Change to project folder

  • ‘rbiphonetest .`

This adds the test framework, a Rakefile, and an ‘autotest` config file.

You can now create testable Objective-C models/classes using the generator: $ script/generate model WidgetMaker create Classes/WidgetMaker.h create Classes/WidgetMaker.m create test/test_widget_maker.rb

To run tests you have several options:

  1. ‘rake` or `rake test`

  2. ‘autotest` (after installing the ZenTest gem)

All options will re-build the Objective-C code (if necessary) before running the tests.

If using autotest, your tests will be re-run if the test files or the Objective-C files are modified.

REQUIREMENTS:¶ ↑

  • RubyCocoa (installed on OS X Leopard; latest version at rubycocoa.com)

  • XCode 3.1 (containing the iPhone SDK)

INSTALL:¶ ↑

sudo gem install rbiphonetest

From source: git clone git://github.com/drnic/rbiphonetest.git cd rbiphonetest rake install_gem

LICENSE:¶ ↑
