Try the autotest command in the ZenTest project instead.

Since it is just a two file project, any file watcher would do it.
    https://rubygems.org/gems/directory_watcher
    https://github.com/thomasfl/filewatcher


Or something based off of guard or watchr

    https://rubygems.org/gems/watchr 
    https://github.com/guard

googling around for file system watchers or autotest provides lots of hits.

enjoy,
