Don’t use Cucumber...
Thank God someone with a bullhorn finally said this. I was beginning to think I was alone in my hatred of Cucumber. (And my love of Test:Unit/Minitest.)

I'm so tired of reading Rails job postings hammering down RSpec and usually also Cucumber experience as a prerequisite.
There's a group of devs that have fooled themselves into thinking anyone outside their group understands how they are testing. I've seen this firsthand. DHH has always been right, imo, in this regard; test what you think is important, use simple tools.
TestUnit still serves me well and it perfectly fits my needs of do more with less.
That being said, to a developer writing tests and doing TDD, Cucumber is a speed bump that doesn't need to be there. RSpec is great without lumping more crap on top of it.
