Ruby Screencast (Unit Testing)
James Edward Gray shows how to apply unit tests to solving Ruby Quiz #84: Generating Pascal’s Triangle. In the process he also demonstrates a lot of features from the Ruby bundle and explains conventions and rationale behind them.
The Ruby Quiz screencast (42 MB) is almost an hour long, so you may want to grab a snack before you start it :)

Talking about screencasts, have you seen the last PeepCode episode, about custumizing TextMate for RoR?

Excellent screencast. Learned new things about the Ruby bundle, test cases and even Ruby features. Well done !

Indeed: really nicely done — perfectly paced, and decorated with lots of educative, carefully planned mistakes!
Thanks very much.

Agreed, an excellent screencast. I had tried the 30-day trial of Textmate, but after watching James’ screencast I purchased it.
