I use 't' all the time to look up files as well. I guess this extension makes it easier to get an overview of the directory structure, but that's something I rarely need. I'm sceptical of browser plugins in general. Ther

Creator of Cucumber here. Cucumber is not a testing tool [1], it is a collaboration and analysis tool. Use it to document (in very broad strokes) the features of your system. It was never meant to be used as an exhaustive regression testing

I completely agree with you that the most important value with BDD and Specification by Example happens during conversations at a whiteboard. Cucumber/Fit/high level tests aren't fundamentally less refactorable. They have a l

Judging from the comments most people here still think Cucumber is a testing tool. Why is it so hard for people to realise that Cucumber's main value proposition is not testing, but to establish a shared understanding between various

Stripe checkout is great, but I really miss the ability to add custom fields to the form, such as VAT number and Company name. I realise that allowing to add a whole bunch of fields can hamper usability, but I have to collect the VAT number

I'm very sad to hear this. When I was more active in the Ruby community I'd bump into Jim regularly at conferences. He was such a charismatic, smart and above all - a very nice guy.

That's right. For anyone who believes trust is important to make the wheels go round it should be obvious that in order for the government to be trusted by its people, it must also demonstrate that it trusts the people. Unidirectional

Or a simple RFC6570 parser (URI Template [1]) that supports variable extraction. Variable extraction isn't part of the spec [2], but at least one library implements it [3]. [1] http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6570 [2] http://tools.ietf.org

I figured out why it doesn't work. It has nothing to do with private or public repos. It doesn't work for projects that are under an organization. That would be nice to get fixed.
