[jira] Commented: (BUILDR-209) Scala Specs Should Use src/specs/scala/

["Daniel Spiewak (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-209?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12660514#action_12660514 ] 

Daniel Spiewak commented on BUILDR-209:
---------------------------------------

Implemented as a separate Specs handler in Git fork.  Specs are compiled to target/spec/classes (is this right?).

git://github.com/djspiewak/buildr.git

Annoyingly, it seems that ScalaTest supersedes Specs any time the src/test/scala directory even exists.  The test.using `:specs => true` config has no apparent effect.  Otherwise, Specs picks up correctly on src/spec/scala and life is happy.  Is this how it is supposed to be, or is this because of a pesky bug in Buildr?

> If you create a series of unit tests using most supported BDD frameworks, the source file will have to be placed in some sub-directory of src/spec (e.g. src/spec/java, src/spec/groovy, etc).  However, due to the way that support is implemented for Specs (the Scala framework), test units must be placed within the src/test/scala folder.  This not only breaks with user expectation, but it also makes certain situations a little more difficult to deal with (mixed Scala Test and Specs for example).  It would be nice if we could just stick .scala files in the src/spec/scala directory and have things magically work.
