Hi folks. First post on these forums, after finally giving up on railsforum.com. I recently installed the relevance fork of rcov and am having no luck at all.
[code] sudo gem install relevance-rcov [/code]
Easy enough. Everything seems to have worked. I can type rcov on the command line and see the help file. But when I run the following command: [code] rcov test/*.rb [/code] I get back 0 tests, 0 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors. Even though I have plenty of tests sitting right in there. If I try running rcov against a specific file, such as: [code] rcov test/unit/user_test.rb [/code] ...I get the following error.
[code] No file to analyze was found. All the files loaded by rcov matched one of the following expressions, and were thus ignored: [/\A\/usr\/local\/lib/, /\btc_[^.]*.rb/, /_test\.rb\z/, /\btest\//, /\bvendor\//, /\A\/usr\/local\/lib\/ruby\/gems\/1\.8\/gems\/relevance\-rcov\-0\.8\.6\/lib\/rcov\/formatters\/base_formatter\.rb\z/]
You can solve this by doing one or more of the following: * rename the files not to be ignored so they don't match the above regexps * use --include-file to give a list of patterns for files not to be ignored * use --exclude-only to give the new list of regexps to match against * structure your code as follows: test/test_*.rb for the test cases lib/**/*.rb for the target source code whose coverage you want making sure that the test/test_*.rb files are loading from lib/, e.g. by using the -Ilib command-line argument, adding $:.unshift File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), "..", "lib") to test/test_*.rb, or running rcov via a Rakefile (read the RDoc documentation or README.rake in the source distribution). /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require': no such file to load -- test_helper (LoadError) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require' from ./test/unit/address_test.rb:19 from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/relevance-rcov-0.8.6/bin/rcov:502:in `load' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/relevance-rcov-0.8.6/bin/rcov:502 from /usr/local/bin/rcov:19:in `load' from /usr/local/bin/rcov:19 [/code]
Any ideas? Cheers.
