Unpopular opinion: Minitest and Rspec are both fine 😂

Many of rails’ helpers in the day were like this. link_to had like seven different arities. Arguably Rails’s whole deal is like this. Same with rspec. Anything that heavily relies on method_missing

Exciting to see that we're finally moving towards a new version of RSpec. I assume we've all been living with those settings in our spec_helpers that say "this will be the default in RSpec 4". Can't wait to delete those.
Introducing the RSpec monorepo, and some updates on the future of RSpec.

You can do this with rspec (Ruby/Rails) too:
rspec --only-failures
rspec --only-failures
TIL you can rerun only failed tests with
pytest --lf
Like reply-all, but for your regrets.

Alright, lets get this out of the way. A test suite doesn't improve (much) by convering from rspec to minitest. I just converted all my model tests from rspec to minitest and it is actually slower.
My stance didn't change. Your test suite isn't slow because of rspec, it is because of system tests.

I’ve been working on adapters for Minitest and RSpec in Quickdraw. It’s almost a drop-in replacement now that won’t require rewriting your tests. But the Quickdraw runner is lightning fast on multi-core machines.

An action-packed Unit Testing with RSpec customised course today. Continuous Testing, an intro to RSpec, TCR, parameterised & property-based tests, stubbing & mocking, the secret to good unit tests, separation of concerns, legacy code and even a bit of TDD thrown in for good measure.

The real reason why your test suite is slow is not because you use rspec vs minitest. It is because you have too many system tests or you have too complex factories. Fixtures are faster than factories. That is your biggest win. But rspec is not the problem.
Right now I migrated my entire test suite from rspec to minitest. My conclusion stays the same, rspec is fine for speed. Migrating to minitest doesn't make the test suite (much) faster. The only upside of minitest is 1st party parallelization, which is slightly better than a 3rd party one.
