Automated functional testing of iPhone apps with iCuke

Seeing the downloads of the open source BDD/Acceptance Testing tool Cucumber skyrocketing is great, but seeing what insane extensions the community comes up with is even greater.

UK-based super hacker and long time Cucumber contributor Rob Holland announced iCuke yesterday. iCuke is a Cucumber extension that lets you write automated functional tests for iPhone apps. Here is a little teaser…

    I cloned the repo, I installed all the dependencies (using rvm with ruby-head 1.9.2, not that it should matter).
    Basically with this piece of code;
    http://gist.github.com/422324

    I get
    /Users/seihe333/icuke/lib/icuke/xcode.rb:117: Invalid retry (SyntaxError)
    when running
    rake features

    Just a note to say that as of iCuke 0.5.5 you don’t need to enable the Accessibility Inspector by hand, or move it out of the way. iCuke will automatically enable the accessibility API without loading up the inspector, and hopefully put settings back as it found them when it’s done.
