Beautiful rspec output in vim.

vim-rspec

ABOUT

Beautiful, colorized RSpec tests in Vim with direct access to the line where the error occurred.

HISTORY

• Original by Eustáquio Rangel (https://github.com/taq), development ended 11/2010
• Modularized rewrite by Yan Pritzker (http://github.com/skwp) 12/2011. I am actively maintaining this fork.

INSTALL

• Requires: gem install hpricot
• Install with pathogen: clone/submodule into vim/bundle
• rbenv users will need to install hpricot using system ruby RBENV_VERSION=system sudo gem install hpricot

USAGE

• :RunSpec for current file
• :RunSpecLine for current line (current 'it' block)
• :RunSpecs for all files in spec dir
• A split will open vertically on the right (if you prefer vertical, let g:RspecSplitHorizontal=0)
• You can hit 'n' to go to the next error, or navigate to it and hit Enter to go to the line in the file.

Enhancements

• Run rspec on current line (execute a single 'it' block)
• Failures and Success is now displayed prominently at the top in green or red
• Improved colors (for Solarized, specifically)
• Run in same window, do not create a new window for every run
• When browsing errors in rspec window, hitting enter takes you to the code in other split (do not create new window)
• Ability to hit 'n' in the rspec output to go to the next error (and the corresponding code in the split)
• Unescape html so that brackets in stacktraces are correctly displayed
• Took out xslt support to focus the project on a ruby-based formatter
• Default to horizontal split, use "let g:RspecSplitHorizontal=0" in vimrc to split vertical
• Support for RSpec1 and RSpec2 (@thenoseman)
• Automatically find the window with the spec (@thenoseman)

Suggested Key Mappings

By default you get these keymappings. If you don't want them, turn them off with:

let g:RspecKeymap=0

Run using Cmd-Shift-R:

map <D-R> :RunSpec<cr>

Run on current line (current 'it' block) Cmd-Shift-L:

map <D-L> :RunSpecLine<cr>

TODO

• Further refactoring to improve maintainability
• Custom paths for RunSpecs (e.g. fast_specs dir)
• Support for other testing frameworks (test/unit, shoulda), maybe

NOTE: This version is drastically different from the original taq/vim-rspec fork due to a large refactoring of the main codebase into a modularized form. If you have an old fork with custom changes, you may want to look at what's been done here.
