You can grab our plugin to enable “UnitRecord”:http://unit-test-ar.rubyforge.org/ when using “Autotest”:http://rubyforge.org/projects/zentest below:

“http://svn.soniciq.com/public/rails/plugins/iq_autotest”:http://svn.soniciq.com/public/rails/plugins/iq_autotest

By default, running autotest in the Rails directory will run the unit tests. To run the functional tests, do: AUTOTEST='functional' autotest

I hope this saves some people some time!!

I use this all the time now however I didn’t like the ugly smilies (call me shallow if you like). I used “Wolfgang Bartelme’s”:http://bartelme.at “Smily Devkit”:http://bartelme.at/journal/archive/smiley_devkit to make a couple of PNG’s slightly more pleasing to the eye.
