at_exit in spec file?
by Student-5

Rate this Message:
I need to perform some work (shutdown mysql servers & delete their
data directories) at the end of my tests. Naturally, I would like to use at_exit. HOWEVER, when I do, the spec file gets loaded twice (and the tests are run twice). Help? _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@... http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users |

What you _can_ do is add an after(:suite) block (typically in spec_helper.rb): Spec::Runner.configure do |config| after(:suite) do # shut stuff down here end end HTH, David _______________________________________________ rspec-users mailing list rspec-users@... http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rspec-users |

Looking over things, the problem is probably with fork/exec related.
I need to start mysql (two of them). They need to run in separate processes. However, I don't seem to be able to "really" exit when I call exit!. It's the final termination of these processes which trigger the reruns. I've tried several variations, nothing is working so far.

Some trouble with the list here...
Hmmm... That yields "undefined method `after' for main:Object (NoMethodError)" ... BUT I'm pretty sure I'm barking up the wrong tree. I think that I'm getting hung up with mysqld_safe. I'm running two test servers, which need to be in separate threads. So I have to background them some way. I've tried playing games with fork & nohup, but no success so far. (When these threads exit, even exit!, the test gets reread & reexecuted.)

Well, I've got it half solved. In the shell call, I background &
nohup the mysqld_safe call. After the fork, I do a Process.kill(9, pid) on each of them. That stops the "run twice" problem. So now I'm back to the "undefined method `after' for main:Object (NoMethodError)" problem. On Oct 28, 12:44 pm, Student <blog...@...> wrote: > Some trouble with the list here... > > Hmmm...

I'm trying to answer the straightforward technical questions, at least non-Rails ones. To people who have clearly tried to help themselves first of course :) Hopefully will free up other people's time. But, is it me, or is rspec-users quieter than it used to be? I'm sure when I was learning the volume of questions was much higher. Are there fewer people using RSpec? Or is it just more stable and well- documented now? (Maybe I'm just imagining it anyway.)

The book pretty much replaces the slides I did for my mocking presentation, and may do the same for the rest of my consulting work =) Burn all the copies! And print the PDFs out and throw them on the fire!!!
