Run ruby Test::Unit/Shoulda/Minitest tests by line-number / folder / the dozen.
(everything not matching "file:line" is simply passed to testrb)
Instant execution, 0 wait-time!

Install

gem install testrbl

or standalone

curl https://rubinjam.herokuapp.com/pack/testrbl > testrbl && chmod +x testrbl

Usage

testrbl test/unit/xxx_test.rb:123 # test by line number
testrbl test/unit                 # everything _test.rb in a folder (on 1.8 this would be test/unit/*)
testrbl xxx_test.rb yyy_test.rb   # multiple files
testrbl --changed                 # run changed tests or files in last commit

Tips

• can't find executable testrb: uninstall old version of test-unit, they define testrb in multiple incompatible ways

TODO

• alternate minitest syntax: test_0017_should not link already linked URLs
