= CanCan Specs
== Running the specs
To run the specs first run the +bundle+ command to install the necessary gems and the +rake+ command to run the specs.
bundle
rake
The specs currently require Ruby 1.8.7. Ruby 1.9.2 support will be coming soon.
== Model Adapters
CanCan offers separate specs for different model adapters (such as Mongoid and Data Mapper). By default it will use Active Record but you can change this by setting the +MODEL_ADAPTER+ environment variable before running. You can run the +bundle+ command with this as well to ensure you have the installed gems.
MODEL_ADAPTER=data_mapper bundle
MODEL_ADAPTER=data_mapper rake
The different model adapters you can specify are:
* active_record (default)
* data_mapper
* mongoid
