Rake not running any tests with minitest - ruby

I have a file containing a class of multiple tests (using minitest). I have require 'minitest/autorun' at the top of the file and all tests run correctly when I call the file directly (ruby my_tests.rb).
So far, so good. However, now I'm trying to run my tests via rake.
require "rake/testtask"
task :default => [:test]
Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
t.libs << Dir.pwd + "/lib/examples"
t.test_files = FileList['test/test*.rb']
end
Calling rake shows test/my_test.rb getting called but no tests within the class get run (0 tests, 0 assertions, etc.). I do get these warnings:
...gems/minitest-5.8.0/lib/minitest/assertions.rb:17: warning: already initialized constant MiniTest::Assertions::UNDEFINED
...ruby/2.1.0/lib/ruby/2.1.0/minitest/unit.rb:80: warning: previous definition of UNDEFINED was here
How can I run my tests within rake successfully? I am not using rails.
EDIT: Here is the top of my test file:
require 'minitest/spec'
require 'minitest/autorun'
require 'minitest/reporters'
reporter_options = { color: true }
Minitest::Reporters.use![Minitest::Reporters::DefaultReporter.new(reporter_options)]
class Test_PowerSpecInputs < Minitest::Test
def setup
#mc = TestClass.new()
end
def test_does_lib_have_constant
# my test code
end
end

Try changing your Rakefile to this.
require "bundler/gem_tasks"
require "rake/testtask"
Rake::TestTask.new(:test) do |t|
t.libs << "test"
t.libs << "lib"
t.test_files = FileList['test/**/*_test.rb']
end
task :default => :test

jphager2 got me thinking about tool versions and it turned out that my version of rake was fairly old. Updating to 11.x did the trick.

Rake::TestTask is not working inside another task

We have developed few test cases using mini-test / ruby
Now we are trying to run it using rake files.
its working fine if we are running below code.
require 'rake'
require 'rake/testtask'
Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
t.test_files = FileList['../Home/*TC1.rb']
t.verbose = true
end
But we are putting the above code in separate task then id does not run the test
task :myCustom_task do
Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
t.test_files = FileList['../Home/*TC1.rb']
t.verbose = true
end
end
Then we run it by below command
rake myCustom_task
and it does not run the test.Also it does not show any error while running with --trace option.
What is missing in this approach ?

unit test in ruby not printing results to console

I'm trying to set up a testing environment in ruby using rake. It seems like the code I have gets reached by rake but it doesn't return any test results. I'm hoping I'm missing something simple and you could lend me a hand.
rakefile
require 'rake'
require 'rake/testtask'
Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
t.libs = ["lib"]
t.warning = true
t.verbose = true
t.test_files = ['test/numbersTest_test.rb']
end
task default:[:test]
numbersTest_test.rb
require "test/unit"
class TestMyApplication < Test::Unit::TestCase
def dummyCase
assert(false, "dummy case failed")
end
end
Result when I run "rake"
C:\Users\Daniel\Classes\assign1\PerfectNumbersRuby
λ rake
C:/Ruby21-x64/bin/ruby.exe -w -I"lib" -I"C:/Ruby21-x64/lib/ruby/gems/2.1.0/gems/rake-10.4.2/lib" "C:/Ruby21-x64/lib/ruby/gems/2.1.0/gems/rake-10.4.2/lib/rake/rake_test_loader.rb" "test/numbersTest_test.rb"
test
There are no testcases in your code. Testcases are methods whose name starts with test_.

ActiveSupport TestCase not running in Sinatra

I'm setting up a new Sinatra app and am having issues getting my tests to run via a rake task. When I run rake:test, the task runs, shows me which files it will be running, but nothing happens. I know it's loading the class because it has failed due to syntax errors, but I never see my tests running. What am I missing? Below is my configuration and example test:
rakefile.rb
require "rake/testtask"
require "sinatra/activerecord/rake"
require "./app"
task :default => :test
TEST_FILES = FileList["test/**/test*.rb"]
desc "Run all of the tests for redFish"
Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
t.libs << "test"
t.test_files = TEST_FILES
t.verbose = true
end
task :default => "test"
test/test_helper.rb
ENV["RACK_ENV"] = "test"
require "rack/test"
require "awesome_print"
require "active_support"
require "active_support/core_ext"
/test/unit/test_organization.rb
require File.expand_path '../../test_helper.rb',__FILE__
class TestOrganization < ActiveSupport::TestCase
def setup
puts "setup for tests"
end
test "validates_required_fields" do
puts "RUNNING TESTS"
assert true
refute false
end
end
When I run rake:test, I can see that test_helper and test_organization.rb are being found by the TestTask, but I don't see any tests pass/fail.
Am I missing something obvious?
Looks like the issue was caused by not requiring minitest/autorun in my test helper. I added that line, and the tests ran fine.

How to create an RSpec Rake task using RSpec::Core::RakeTask?

How do I initialize an RSpec Rake task using RSpec::Core::RakeTask?
require 'rspec/core/rake_task'
RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new do |t|
# what do I put in here?
end
The Initialize function documented at
http://rubydoc.info/github/rspec/rspec-core/RSpec/Core/RakeTask#initialize-instance_method isn't very well-documented; it just says:
- (RakeTask) initialize(*args, &task_block)
A new instance of RakeTask
What should I put for *args and &task_block?
I'm following in the footsteps of someone who had already started to build some ruby automation for a PHP project using RSpec in combination with Rake. I'm used to using RSpec without Rake, so I'm unfamiliar with the syntax.
Thanks,

Here is an example of my Rakefile:
require 'rspec/core/rake_task'
task :default => [:spec]
desc "Run the specs."
RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new do |t|
t.pattern = "spec.rb"
end
desc "Run the specs whenever a relevant file changes."
task :watch do
system "watchr watch.rb"
end
This allows to run specs defined in the spec.rb file from Rake
This is what my rakefile looks like
gem 'rspec', '~>3'
require 'rspec/core/rake_task'
task :default => :spec
desc "run tests for this app"
RSpec::Core::RakeTask.new do |task|
test_dir = Rake.application.original_dir
task.pattern = "#{test_dir}/*_spec.rb"
task.rspec_opts = [ "-I#{test_dir}", "-I#{test_dir}/source", '-f documentation', '-r ./rspec_config']
task.verbose = false
end
You can 'rake' from your tests directory and it will run all tests with a name [something]_spec.rb - and it should work across different test directories (e.g. different projects); if you have source in a separate directory (e.g. in the code above, a subdirectory called '/source' it will pick them up. Obviously, you can change that source directory to what you want.
Here's the rspec_config file I use - you can add your own settings in here:
RSpec.configure do |c|
c.fail_fast = true
c.color = true
end

What am I doing wrong with my rakefile?

This is the only thing in my rakefile.
Rake::TestTask.new do |t|
t.libs << "test"
t.test_files = FileList['test/test*.rb']
t.verbose = true
end
When I run rake the output I get is
uninitialized constant Rake::TestTask
What am I doing wrong? I want my rake file to run all unit tests that I specify. Any input would be helpful.
Thanks
What happens if you require 'rake/testtask' at the top of the file?
