Question

Why the cucumber features keeps running even though it fails?

Answer 1

+1 A:

Autotest checks all files in your rails project after each run and reruns the tests if any modifications are found. You need to add exceptions to your .autotest config file to ignore the file(s) that are changing. Here is an example .autotest:

Autotest.add_hook :initialize do |at|
  %w{.git vendor rerun.txt}.each {|exception| at.add_exception(exception)}
end

Cucumber creates rerun.txt during its test cycle -- that is probably what's causing your issue. You may need to add additional entries depending on your particular system configuration.

PS. Autospec is a wrapper for autotest, so if you are having issues with autospec, searching on "autotest" may get better results. More about autospec/autotest and Cucumber.

I had to put some extra folders to make it work. Autotest.add_hook :initialize do |at| %w{.git vendor rerun.txt tmp log}.each {|exception| at.add_exception(exception)} end
