Guys
I've been struggling with this one for a couple of hours, and nothing seems to work here, any advice would be duly appreciated...
Background: I'm busy working on a plugin called "shared_models",
allowing you to easily share models between different applications,
running different database or on the same database. The plugin is
nearly complete, offering a generator that generates models, unit
tests, fixtures and even migrations. Some other goodies included too,
but you'll have to wait for the release 
Problem: I'm trying to add a rake task that will generate coverage information for the shared_models, but I can't get this to work properly. rcov keeps on spitting out coverage information for the application housing the plugin.
<vendor/plugins/shared_models/tasks/rcov.rake> require 'rcov/rcovtask'
namespace :shared_models do namespace :test do Rcov::RcovTask.new(:coverage) do |t| t.libs << "#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/../test" t.test_files = FileList["#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/../test/*.rb",
"#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/../test/unit/*_test.rb"] t.output_dir = "#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/../test/coverage" t.verbose = true end end end </vendor/plugins/shared_models/tasks/rcov.rake>
rcov is running, and from the debug output I can see that the correct files are loaded inside the plugins' test, and test/unit directories. Below is the output from running the task:
<rake shared_models:test:coverage>
rm -r ./vendor/plugins/shared_models/tasks/../test/coverage /usr/bin/ruby18 -Ilib:./vendor/plugins/shared_models/tasks/../test -S rcov --text-report -o "./vendor/plugins/shared_models/tasks/../test/coverage" "./vendor/plugins/shared_models/tasks/../test/test_helper.rb" "./vendor/plugins/shared_models/tasks/../test/shared_models_test.rb" "./vendor/plugins/shared_models/tasks/../test/unit/resource_test.rb" Loaded suite /usr/bin/rcov Started ..
