The Ruby language and the Rails framework are fast becoming two of the most talked about technologies in the development community, having had such an impact that other languages and frameworks have taken significant steps to retool themselves in order to adopt their approaches to software development. Both are also particularly well-suited to the agile approach to software development, a phenomenon which is quickly becoming an integral part of the Ruby and Rails community.
Agile Testing with Ruby and Rails serves as a comprehensive introduction to effectively testing Ruby and Rails applications using a variety of well-defined agile approaches.
