Shoulda in Advanced Rails Recipes

Posted by Tammer Saleh

Dec 10

Mike Clark and the Pragmatic Programmers just released the beta version of their latest offering: Advanced Rails Recipes: 72 New Ways to Build Stunning Rails Apps. This is one of the few rails books I’ve been eagerly waiting for, so you can imagine how honored I was when Mike Clark asked me to review his section on Shoulda.

That’s right, folks! Shoulda got its own stake of land in recipe #22: “Getting Started with BDD.”

So head on over and grab the combo pack. You get the beta PDF now (‘cause none of us respect delayed gratification) and the print book when it ships – all for around $40.

That’s great. Do you have any idea how far along the beta book is? The dead tree still has a May 2008 release date.

The beta book was just released, but it looks pretty good so far. I’m betting there’ll be updates until a month or so before the paper version launches.

Congrats! I was going to also convey my excitement about shoulda-as-gem on the previous post, but comments were closed. Or something.

So consider it conveyed now.

Thanks Yossef. We’ve been having a ton of problems with comment spam, so we’ve been having to diligently close comments shortly after posting. It sucks, and we’re working on a better solution.

Sorry, comments are closed for this article.
