[DRE-maint] Bug#715013: two alternatives

[Cédric Boutillier]

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this issue.

This problem is caused by a change of behavior of RSpec that happened
around the 2.5 release.
Before, having a require "rspec" would imply that specs are run at exit
time, but this is no longer true. This probably affects other packages
using RSpec, that haven't been updated for a while.

There are two alternatives:

- use rspec/autorun. Instead of modifying the source to add it to
  spec/spec_helper, you can add it at the top of
  debian/ruby-test-files.yaml

- an other possibility is to replace the 'yaml' method to run the tests
  with the 'rake' method, by deleting debian/ruby-test-files.yaml and
  add a debian/ruby-tests.rake file with a content similar to:


     require 'rspec/core/rake_task'
     
     RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new(:spec) do |spec|
       spec.pattern      = './spec/*_spec.rb'
     end
     
     task :default => :spec

Cheers,

Cédric
