Ruby Rules
Filed Under (JRuby, Ruby) by Aneesha on 02-11-2007

Ruby, my favourite programming language is taking over the world. I have proof:

  1. JRuby reached V1 this year
  2. I can run Ruby on Rails apps on GlassFish
  3. IronRuby runs in a browser via Silverlight (meaning .NET does Ruby)
  4. Ruby is pioneering Behavior Driven Development with RSpec and RBehave
  5. …..and we have BuildR - a Java build tool written in Ruby

Ruby promotes Language Oriented Programming - we need domain specific languages to do the task at hand not Java or C# syntax to do any job.

Ruby is not “pioneering” BDD, BDD tools are available for Java for a long time. The merit the Ruby community has in field is promoting BDD instead of TDD.

Point taken — RBehave did come from JBehave.
