Subject: Re: ci_reporter user guide?

Hi Nick,

Thanks for your response. I am very new to ruby, so please bear with me. 
I am using Ruby, Watir and Test/unit, not Ruby on rails.
My first question will be if i can use ci_reporter with the tools i 
mentioned above. I found out that I need to use ci_reporter with Rake.

What I am trying to achieve is that test login a website and check if 
successful. I used test/unit assert to validate the result. I need to 
get the output from running ruby as XML file so that I can use in 
cruisecontrol application. But I don't know how to use to_xml method in 
my rake file or ruby.


This is another question. Since I use test/unit, I put the following 
line in my rake file:
require 'rubygems'
gem 'ci_reporter'
require 'ci/reporter/rake/test_unit' # use this if you're using 
Test::Unit
according to the documentation. When try to run it, I got this error 
message: 
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/ci_reporter-1.3.3/lib/ci/reporter/rake/test_unit.rb:5: 
undefined method `namespace' for main:Object (NoMethodError)
  from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in 
`gem_original_require'
  from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in 
`require'
  from Rakefile.rb:3
I don't really know what is causing it.

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks,
maung
