Rails Rspec model testing skeleton & cheat sheet using rspec-rails, shoulda-matchers, shoulda-callbacks, and factory_girl_rails. Pretty much a brain dump of examples of what you can (should?) test in a model. Pick & choose what you like, and please let me know if there are any errors or new/changed features out there. Reddit comment thread: http…
# This is a skeleton for testing models including examples of validations, callbacks,
# scopes, instance & class methods, associations, and more.
# Pick and choose what you want, as all models don't NEED to be tested at this depth.
#
# I'm always eager to hear new tips & suggestions as I'm still new to testing,
# so if you have any, please share!

# This skeleton also assumes you're using the following gems:

Hurdles getting started with Ember.js

This is a brain dump of my experience trying to get something going with Ember.js. My goal was to get to know the ins and outs of the framework by completing a pretty well defined task that I had lots of domain knowledge about. In this case reproducing a simple Yammer feed. As of this time, I have not been able to complete that task. So this is a subjective rundown of the things I think make it difficult to get a handle on Ember. NOTE: My comments are addressing the Ember team and giving suggestions on what they could do to improve the situation.

App setup

The new guides have pretty good explanation of the various parts of the framework; routers, models, templates, views. But it's not clear how they all get strapped together to make something that works. There are snippets of examples all over the place like:

App.Router.map(function() {
  match('/home').to('home');
});

Event Buffering

Eventually platforms outgrow the single-source-tree model and become distributed systems. A common pattern in these distributed systems is distributed composition via event buffering. Here we motivate and describe this event buffering pattern.

Requirements

You will also need a C Compiler. If you're on Linux, you probably already have one or know how to install one. On OS X, you should install XCode, and brew install autoconf using homebrew.
