Unison Programming Language<p>You might think "<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/rubylang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rubylang</span></a> and Unison couldn't be more different" </p><p>But Ruby is one of Unison's inspirations.

There's also a book that covers testing such apps with the Aruba gem and <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/CucumberBDD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CucumberBDD</span></a>. IIRC it's entitled "Build Awesome Command-Line Applications in Ruby" by <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://ruby.social/@davetron5000" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>davetron5000</span></a></span>, but it may be out of print.

Yesterday's Rose<p>So I'm a <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/RubyLang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RubyLang</span></a> developer and just on a whim I'm trying out <a href="https://tech.lgbt/tags/ElixirLang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ElixirLang</span></a> for a small data-collation project (mucking about with a bunch of sqlite3 databases and whatnot).</p><p>Had a mild WTF moment trying to figure out what the hell this "mix" thing is, it's a bit more complex beast than rake/bundler. But nothing googling can't solve.</p><p>The script is now at the "wow, it does a thing!" phase. Feeling hopeful. Might be getting actual results out of this one day.</p>

Todd A.

Todd A. Jacobs | Rubyist<p><a href="https://ruby.social/tags/CrystalLang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CrystalLang</span></a> comes with its own version of <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/RSpec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RSpec</span></a> built in. However, I can't seem to find a Crystal equivalent for <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/CucumberBDD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CucumberBDD</span></a>, although I've heard anecdotally that Turnip (which embeds <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/GherkinSyntax" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GherkinSyntax</span></a> into RSpec) works even if it lacks some of Cucumber's full feature set. What do Crystal programmers use as a drop-in replacement or alternative implementation for <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/RubyLang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RubyLang</span></a> Cucumber?</p>
