Hello,

This is a summary of ruby-dev mailing list last week.

[ruby-dev:21356] test/ruby/*

NKAMURA, Hiroshi created a starter of adding test suites
to test/ruby/. He devided sample/test.rb along classes
to test, changed to use Test::Unit and committed them
into test/ruby/ directory in the CVS repository.

He wants other rubyists to have a look at them, and
add new Test::Unit test cases for ruby and extension
libraries if you like it.

He also added test cases for CSV library as an example
of the testing library.

How do/will these tests differ from rubicon?

My understanding from ruby-core is that rubicon will supercede this. The
question to me is "Why not just put this effort into Rubicon.

Of course, Rubicon doesn’t have a lot of standard library tests–yet.

Hi,

The new test suites differ from rubicon that

  • it’s for the latest version only
  • authors/maintainers of bundled libraries are encouraged to add
    their tests to the suites.

Maybe it will be called as “rubicon” in the future to honor the
original test suites.
