Spork
Spork improves the loading time of your test suite by starting up your Rails application once in the background. Use it with Guard for the ultimate combo in fast feedback while doing TDD.
(9 minutes)
Testing Time & Web Requests
It can be difficult to test code that deals with the current time or an external web request. Here I show you how to do both using the Timecop and FakeWeb gems.
(8 minutes)
How I Test
Here I show how I would add tests to the password reset feature created in the previous episode. I use RSpec, Capybara, Factory Girl, and Guard to make request, model, and mailer specs.
(15 minutes)
Guard
Guard watches files and runs a command after a file is modified. This allows you to automatically run tests in the background, restart your development server, reload the browser, and more.

Testing JavaScript with Jasmine
Are you testing your JavaScript? Learn how to add specs using Jasmine. This episode also covers jQuery integration with jasmine-jquery.
(15 minutes)
Request Specs and Capybara
Request specs in RSpec are a great way to ensure the entire application stack is working properly. Here I also show how to use capybara with integrated JavaScript testing using Selenium.
(13 minutes)
Testing Exceptions
Sometimes bad code slips into production and triggers a 500 error. Learn how to be notified of this and resolve it through integration tests.
(10 minutes)
Pickle with Cucumber
Pickle adds many convenient Cucumber steps for generating models. Also learn about table diffs in this episode.
(16 minutes)
Metric Fu
Metric Fu is a compilation of several tools to help find areas of code that could be improved. In this episode I show you how to setup this tool on the railscasts.com source code.
(9 minutes)
More on Cucumber
There is a lot more to Cucumber than I showed in an earlier episode. See how to refactor complex scenarios in this episode.
