Missing --profile option

[rafamanzo]

Hi!

I don't know if this was intended to not work anymore.

I've searched about this and found anything relevant about this error.

But on the versions 1.3.(3|4), when I run the tests with cucumber --profile default I get the following error:

/home/rafael/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p195@mezuro-standalone/gems/minitest-4.7.5/lib/minitest/unit.rb:1037:in `block in process_args': invalid option: --profile (OptionParser::InvalidOption)

Downgrading to 1.3.2 fixed it.

Thank you in advance!

You're requiring minitest/autorun somewhere aren't you? Stop doing that.

[rafamanzo]

Thank you for the reply!

Actually, I'm not. Probably some gem is...

Look:

rafael@WALL-A:~/workspace/mezuro-standalone$ grep -lrh 'minitest/autorun'

/home/rafael/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p195@mezuro-standalone/gems/mime-types-1.23/test/test_mime_type.rb

So, if this is the cause, should be rake, arel, activerecord-deprecated_finders, rails, nokogiri, rdoc and mime-types.

Digging about this require you mentioned I've reached this thread: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/cukes/VoLUFDbiNdc

Puting a raise on the MiniTest::Unit.autorun method, as suggested, gave this stack trace:

So it's activesupport who is calling it.

Commenting it out from activesupport-4.0.0/lib/active_support/testing/autorun.rb fixes it.

I've opened this issue to ask the Rails team about it: rails/rails#11484

Thank you again.

Thanks a lot for digging into this @rafamanzo.

The reason this functionality was removed from Cucumber was that the code was gnarly and untested. We extracted the code out into a separate gem: https://github.com/cucumber/multi_test and on the way we did simplify it. It seemed to us that the use case where someone was requiring multitest/autorun as well as cucumber was an edge-case.

I don't think this behaviour should be in Cucumber, but if it doesn't get removed from ActiveSupport then what we need is for someone to add that behaviour back into multi_test, with tests.

[rafamanzo]

Looks like it's necessary on Rails so it is capable of calling it's tests.

And it's to important find a way to avoid this call since it affects everyone using rails 4.

I'm not an specialist on it, but I'm thinking about sending a pull request to the cucumber-rails repository where the file cucumber/rails instead of requiring 'rails/test_help' requires one version of it without the require to 'active_support/testing/autorun'.

How wrong is that? :)

Thanks!

[mattwynne]

I think it is broken of Rails to assume that minitest is the only testing framework you'll want to use. I haven't looked into it yet but maybe you're on to something @rafamanzo.

@alindeman how are you handling this for RSpec?

[alindeman]

@alindeman how are you handling this for RSpec?

I don't think rspec-rails is triggering this somehow. What exactly causes Rails to enable Minitest's autorun?

[mattwynne]

@alindeman see cucumber/multi_test#2 (comment)

Cucumber-rails requires rails/test_help and that in turn requires the autorun. Are you plugging in Rails differently then? Maybe @tooky is on to something. We'll have to take a look at your code.

[alindeman]

What does rails/test_help provide that cucumber needs? We don't pull that in within rspec-rails as far as I can tell.

[aslakhellesoy]

Yes, not requiring rails/test_help is definitely the solution to this bug:

• rails/test_help
• active_support/testing/autorun

[aslakhellesoy]

Also see cucumber/multi_test#2 and cucumber/cucumber-rails#253
