HI,

I'm Alessandro, I live in Italy in a small village bordering Vineyard Landscape of Piedmont: Langhe-Roero and Monferrato where I live with my family: my wife Silvia, my daughter Olivia, and another daughter arriving.

I escaped from a big city showing some mild symptoms of misanthropy, but I am generally harmless.

I'm an object oriented software design and programming consultant. Mostly writing in Ruby, but experienced on a range of the so-called stack.

A Message from the Ruby Central Board

Over the past several months, there has been significant discussion, disagreement, and concern about RubyGems, Bundler, and Ruby Central’s role in stewarding RubyGems and supporting the Ruby ecosystem. Because this matter has involved ongoing legal discussions, we have been limited in what we could say publicly. Our priority has

Feedback on Hanami Minitest

Hi everyone — I’m pleased to share that our initial Minitest support is now merged into the gem’s main branch. I’ve implemented the block-based test/setup/teardown API, as you suggested above (with some tweaks to make it fit better with setup and teardown methods in superclasses). I decided to host the base classes inside the gem. They exist as Hanami::Minitest::{Test,RequestTest,FeatureTest}. I’ve also take the opportunity to use this as a first foray into internalising some of the test setup...
