Netbeans nightly 2008-09-17.

I have this auction_parser_spec.rb

describe AuctionParser do
    before(:each) do
        @ap = AuctionParser.new
    end

    it "should initialize empty $auction when created" do
        @ap.auction.should_not == nil
    end

    after do
        @ap = nil
    end
end

where the class is

class AuctionParser
    attr_reader :auction

    def initialize
    end
end

running RSpec from cmdline gives appropriate fail for the spec. Netbeans also... well, at least partially.

in right pane of Ruby Test Results is
1)
'AuctionParser should initialize empty $auction when created' FAILED
expected not: == nil,
         got:    nil
