[rspec-devel] merging rbehave into rspec

[Dan North]

Hi folks.

Thought I'd post a quick update due to the level of interest. Thanks for 
all the offers of help. It's very encouraging!

So, to start with, I'm moving the rbehave codebase (as of 0.3.0) into 
rspec into a new module called Spec::Story. The code will largely be 
unchanged apart from repackaging (renaming modules and a few files) and 
migrating my mocha mocks to use rspec's internal mocking framework.

So far, I've got the code and the behaviours in there but the pre_commit 
behaviours are failing all over the place with what looks like a clash 
of mocking frameworks. (It looks like rspec doesn't like to mix mocking 
frameworks in the same run, which makes sense.) I don't want to commit a 
broken build, although I hadn't actually thought of doing this 
integration work on a branch. (I guess I thought it would be a pretty 
trivial exercise.)

If I'm still struggling in a few days, I'll probably commit to a branch, 
but in the meantime I would like to use this list to ask dumb questions 
- mostly about the rspec build :)

/(First dumb question: how do I only run the behaviours for a particular 
file or set of files using rake?)
/
As soon as I have a working build - and David gives me the go-ahead - 
I'll check in and then we can scope out the work to get proper 
story-level Rails integration.

Thanks again for the support,
Dan
