RVM needs your help Jump to Story

Michal Papis, over on the Engine Yard Blog, posted an update to the current status of RVM.

The framework – called DTF, or Deryl’s Testing Framework – allowed work to begin on RVM 2.0. The RVM team is asking that everyone contribute their RVM use cases to make the test suite is as robust as possible. If you do something interesting with it, it would behoove you to add a test for it to make sure the functionality remains in the 2.0 release.
